POLL: Favorite Weird/Unusual Sandwich? - 05/21/2009 10:42 PM

Everyone has their own favorite that most people would say YUCK to!

I'll start it off...

PB&J (Jiff Creamy & Grape Jam) on lightly toasted rye (w/caraway seeds) and a good dousing of Jalapeno Sauce...
Hot & Sweet! (like my wife <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />)...
Very tasty!

I used to bring mashed Baked Bean sandwich on Raisin bread to school...lot of the kids said 'yuck'!

OK, my contribution is peanut butter and margarine on one slice white bread, mayo and lettuce on another slice, and woila, sandwich! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Smile.gif" alt="" /> My mom made this ever since we were growing up and Eric wanted to URP the first time he heard it! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Jim, believe it or not, I've made just about that, but used prosciutto...
when I make chicken cordon bleu, I also use prosciutto...
prosciutto, cream cheese and capers go so well together... would be great with hard salami or saprosatta too... I love saprosatta!
I also like PB, sliced Granny Smith Apples & Hard Salami (or pepperoni) sandwiches...
(sorry, this thread is not supposed to be about PB, just turning out that way)...

Toasted French/Italian bread spread with liverwurst, topped with a nice glob of mayo, sprinkle some salt, and add sliced onion. Open faced.

And, the difference between pate and liverwurst?...about $10/lb.

I like prosciutto so much I have trouble putting it in a sandwich, I keep nibbling. Also like it wrapped around honeydew.

Open faced peanut butter with two slices of bacon across it.

Loved it as a kid, but I've had lots of people tell me it's gross.

add sliced banana and fry it like grilled cheese... and you have an Elvis!

when we were kids in the 50's, my mom always gave us white bread, butter and sugar...
along with milk mixed with ginger ale... when we got home from school...
my sister & I loved it then...
I couldn't eat that now! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" /> I lost my taste for it around eight yrs. old...

Recipe courtesy Peanut Butter & Co.
Show: Sara’s Secrets
Episode: All About Peanut Butter

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 4 sandwiches

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter, softened
8 slices white bread
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1 large, ripe banana, sliced
1/4 cup honey
12 slices bacon, Sauteed until crispy (optional)
Preparation:

Spread the butter on 1 side of each slice of bread. On the other side of half of the slices spread peanut butter. Place banana slices on top of peanut butter. Drizzle honey over bananas. Place 3 bacon slices on top of the banana, then place the remaining buttered bread slices on top, butter-side-out.

There is a deli near us in North Plainfield, NJ that makes "The Widowmaker, a Heart-Attack on a Bagel"...
two fried eggs, one slice Taylor Ham, Three slices bacon, one sausage patty, slice of ham, one "steak-um" & cheese, all on an "Everything Bagel" slathered with cream cheese & butter... all for $3.99...
enough calories for an entire day! (or two, maybe?)...

It's their most popular breakfast sandwich! I had one, ONCE, years ago! never again!
BUT it was tasty! I did regret it for the next day or two!

Gouda, Dijon Mustard, sliced onion & shreaded lettuce on a baguette!

How aboved deviled ham spread on white bread? We were just talkng about that in the office the other day. It's one of those things that I use to eat when I was a kid and now wonder why and what the heck is it made of? Anyone else ever have this? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/chef.gif" alt="" />

Re: POLL: Favorite Weird/Unusual Sandwich? - 05/22/2009 06:44 PM

I've had Smithfield Deviled Ham Spread on crackers and I love it. Is that what you mean? While my husband and I like it, we've served it at our house and found that noone else ate it. We do add more mayo to it because it's so salty. Never had it on bread, though.

Map, Years ago lots of people used Spam, (I know some still do, there is even a low fat version). Put it in a blender, with mayo and celery and voila, a ham sandwich!

I thought my sister and I were the only ones who grew up with this kind of sandwich - always PB & Mayo - sometimes mom would add raisens and alfalfa sprouts.

LBI2SXM, I love Spam and always have. I make a grilled Spam sandwich and would not mind having one now!

My mom used to grind whole bologna in her crank-style meat grinder (the kind you clamp onto a tabletop), mix with mayo and relish...Voila! Ham Salad!

Hey, we still do! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Smile.gif" alt="" /> It is my mom's grinder, we add cheese and onion and hard boiled egg also, along with bolongna, mayo and pickle relish. We had had the hand grinder ever since we got married, but hadn't used it in maybe 20 years until about 6 months ago, when we made it. Nostalgic look back, and we enjoy the ham salad for a change up sandwich.

Baumgartner's Tavern in Monroe, WI serves a great limberger cheese sandwich with a slice of onion on rye. Wash it down with a cold beer <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Cheers.gif" alt="" />

Pepperoni slices (or proscutio or saprosatta or hard salami), granny smith apple slices, sharp cheddar cheese, mustard & mayo...
on lightly toasted seeded rye...
we used to always bring these on skiing trips for lunch...
brings back memories of ski trips to Mont. Tremblant, eating at the summit lodge when it was -40F outside!

Gorgonzola cheese on a toasted english muffin, romaine lettuce and wasabi mayo. Another, not my creation, was foie gras, procuitto, sun dried tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinager on Italian flatbread. (lighthouse restaurant, Aruba). Roast pork on garlic bread with duck sauce. My cardioligist is cringing.

Sharp Cheddar cheese and grape jam (jam spreads on the bread better than jelly) on toasted rye bread. Kind of like eating grapes & cheese together.

Re: POLL: Favorite Weird/Unusual Sandwich? - 05/26/2009 09:43 PM

I think Cheddar goes great with just about any fruit! My favorite is still a sliced Granny Smith or Macintosh...
