Grilled cheese using leftover shredded Swiss cheese on Dave’s multigrain. Cooked it on medium-low for a while to build up a nice golden crust. Unlike my wife who insists on cooking it on high and burns it and claims she likes it burnt. No you don’t, you’re lazy and impatient!

This isn’t really about your sandwich, is it?

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 7 points 18 hours ago

My post is entirely about sandwiches. She also uses every vessel and utensil in the kitchen and piles them into the sink.

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 9 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Does two slices of pizza put together count as a sandwich?

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 4 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I say yes, but this is an Internet forum and you likely just started an international incident.

Tried Jersey Mike's for the first time yesterday, got a Philly. Gat damn, that shit was fire.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

If you ever get chance to have the real deal go for it, just avoid the tourist traps (Pat’s and Geno’s are not great). Or a roast pork. I think Philly roast pork sandwiches are even better than the steaks. Extra sharp provolone, juicy pork, and broccoli rabe or spinach, mmmm. Getting hungry just thinking about it.

I really gotta get down to the Reading Terminal…

I had a couple of hot dogs the other day.

[–] presoak@lazysoci.al 5 points 18 hours ago

Smooshy dinner rolls, leftover tg ham, weird amish pickles, some cheese, brown mustard.

Not bad.

[–] artifex@lemmy.zip 5 points 18 hours ago

“The Gobbler” is a post-Thanksgiving tradition in my family. Get out the ancient, heavy panini press that is probably 80 years old (I could do a core sample of the accumulated grease and count the rings I guess). As you might assume it contains all of the thanksgiving leftovers. This year my sandwich had a bigass brioche bun between which was crammed:

  • turkey
  • stuffing
  • cranberry sauce
  • green beans
  • sweet potatoes
  • swiss and Gouda cheeses
  • chipotle mayo

Add a little butter on the outside and gingerly apply pressure so it doesn’t come apart. After a few minutes you have a several-inch-thick slab of deliciousness.

I should have taken a photo because it was a thing of beauty. Maybe next year.

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 5 points 20 hours ago

Wow, it's been a bit of a while since I last ate a sandwich! It was between two slices of wholemeal bread, with hummus as the spread, and sliced cucumber and tomato. I rather I enjoyed it.

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

Pimento cheese and a slice of tomato grilled on buttered sourdough. A southern classic

[–] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 4 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (3 children)

Somewhat stale bread with butter, liver pate, cheese and some hot sauce.

It did the job of feeding me and getting rid of the leftover bread. The one before that was better with non stale bread.

[–] shai_hulud@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

This cafe in San Antonio - it's been around for like 30 years called Picnikins. A friend introduce me to them a couple of years ago.

I like the Ultimate - Smoked turkey breast, bacon, avocado, tomato, sprouts, mayonnaise and cream cheese on marbled rye.

It may be pedestrian compared to some of the amazing things you all are eating and the name is definitely overblown but it's a lovely sandwich. As a side you can get a creamy poblano soup that is very very rich.

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 4 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Not my proudest sandwich.

The package of sourdough bread only had three slices left, two stumps and one slice. So, naturally, this was going to be BigMac style.

I then had crispy fried onions leftover from Thanksgiving.

So, the layering was:

  • Bread Stump
  • Bbq sauce
  • Fried onions
  • Cheese
  • Bread slice
  • Fried onions
  • Cheese
  • Bread stump

7/10

Per tradition: A turkey sandwich using Thanksgiving day leftovers. Very simple, leftover turkey, mayo, white bread.

[–] Sparrow_1029@programming.dev 2 points 19 hours ago

Did this as well! But, we used sous vide turkey breast, and only made enough fixings for the sandwich instead of making the whole meal first (there's only two of us). Had the leftover sandwich for Thanksgiving dinner!

Kaiser roll, mayo, Italian cheese blend, Montreal Smoked Meat, Black Forest Ham, coleslaw with a side of Tater Tots.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

There's a place nearby that serves BBQ out of a truck until 4 PM every day. Just off the side of the highway. No tables or anything. Just a food truck and a truck sized smoker.

I used the back of my car as a makeshift table and happily ate my pulled pork sandwich and macaroni. Really good. And the lady called me "sugar." 10/10

[–] leadore@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

tuna salad with one of those packets of "Sweet and Spicy" tuna, mixed in mayo with chopped up bell pepper, onion, pickle, and celery

[–] quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 19 hours ago

Last one wasn't very good, canned mackerel with potato chips. I was hungry and I didn't feel like cooking or making a proper sandwich.

[–] lycanrising@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

grilled cheese and homemade egg mayo

[–] HurricaneLiz@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

Spicy fried chicken sandwich with coleslaw on it. The restaurant also has the best cronuts and donuts I've ever had!

[–] samburwell96@piefed.social 3 points 19 hours ago

Whoa we a bunch of sourdough folks up in here! I had a pb and honey sandwich last night, and I have one with Thanksgiving turkey for lunch later!

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

A medley of Thanksgiving leftovers + Russian dressing. As is tradition

[–] IWW4@lemmy.zip 3 points 13 hours ago

Diced ham from a spiral ham, with dippin sauce on toast with lettuce and tomatoe.

[–] edg@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Leftover turkey on toasted white bread with mayo, dijon mustard, dash of tobasco, and a ton of chow chow. So good.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Turkey-Havarti on Amtrak Acela! The bread wasn’t memorable and the sandwich was small, but it tasted good and Acela is a great way to travel

If you grade Amtrak food relative to airline food, it’s outstanding!

[–] SayJess@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 18 hours ago

Whopper Jr. It was pretty good.

[–] Bongles@lemmy.zip 3 points 18 hours ago

I usually make wraps, since the tortilla lasts longer than bread, but the last sandwich I had was just turkey, cheddar, mayo, and mustard on white bread.

[–] Novamdomum@fedia.io 3 points 18 hours ago

Sainsbury's Meal Deal (Xmas themed) "Pigs Under Blankets" sandwich - with cranberry chutney on malted bread. Cumberland sausage, beechwood smoked bacon, cranberry chutney and mayonnaise on malted bread.

Just an average sandwich really, nothing to write home about. Ate it about an hour ago. Best bit was the "grab bag" of barbecue beef hula hoops that I got with it in the meal deal.

[–] SalamenceFury@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Last one I ate was a Subway order, it was like... an italian BMT. I had tomatoes, onions, and lettuce as vegetables, cheddar cheese, some olive oil, and the sauces were parmesan and seasoned herb mayo on a butter and garlic bread.

It was fine. Brazil does have higher standards for food, so it was pretty good and filling. I just uh, had a bit of trouble with the pepperoni spice but that's mostly cause I'm a lightweight when it comes to that 😅

[–] jade52@lemmy.ca 3 points 17 hours ago

A TLTA: tempeh, lettuce, tomato, avocado 🤌

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

Pesto, chicken, mozzarella, on a sub roll. Maybe some other stuff. Ordered from the local sub shop.

[–] Perspectivist@feddit.uk 2 points 17 hours ago

Two halves of rye bread, toasted, butter on the bottom half. Gouda cheese, cucumber slices with salt, and mettwurst.

I eat 4 of these every single day.

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

A local Mexican restaurant served a really good Barbeque cheeseburger compared to local sandwich restaurants.

I can't remember, but the other day I folded a pancake around a piece of butter and ate that.

[–] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 15 hours ago

Peanut butter and jelly on white bread.

[–] waggz@programming.dev 2 points 14 hours ago

Kroger honey ham on wheat with Dijon mustard

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 14 hours ago

It was an abomination.

Dark bread (wheat/rye mix), homemade, mustard, mortadela, cheese, letuce and a slice of tomato.

Fit it's role.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

Super basic. Sausage sliced long-ways, shredded Mexican-blend cheese with some habanero salsa. Threw it together and stuck it in my little toaster oven.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 14 hours ago

Delicious and simple, cherry wood smoked shaved ham, extra sharp cheddar, mayonnaise and mustard on everything bread

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Leftover turkey, blue cheese, pickled onions and fresh sliced thin sweet onions, with mayonnaise on homemade sourdough.

I had been joking with my husband, said we needed cheese for sandwiches because all we had left was blue cheese and Parmesan, but then decided blue cheese and turkey didn't sound bad at all, and it wasn't.

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Bacon and egg sandwich from a local cafe. It's a sometimes thing for me when my weight progress is good and I've burned a lot of calories that day. It's simple but good, heaps of bacon, couple of eggs, some tomato relish and a bit of cheese.

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Toasted Peanut butter with rasins and flaked coconut, was really stonned lmfao
