Just Jack Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 I'm just going to name a place instead of a particular sandwich. http://www.brooklynpickle.com/index.cfm
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 I've always been partial to a good reuben. Same here! That is a go to sammy! Anybody mention Monte Cristo? Speaking of tornadoes in Cheektowaga, The Holiday Showcase had a good one back in day.
Philly McButterpants Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 clearly, mrags should stay. Beat me to it.
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 In terms of the best sandwich I ever ate out, went to some random seafood place in the suburbs of Detroit about 20 years ago. They had a "lobster Rueben." It was toasted and buttered grilled sour dough bread; really creamy Cole slaw; and huge chunks of lobster. Kind of a riff on a lobster roll, but better; still remember every bite of that sandwich! Maybe I gotta sick mind JR. I'd fix the first clause in your first sentence. LoL... But I think it is just me. ;-) :-)
T&C Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 My favorite sandwich is one that is made by someone else. Sure, I can make whatever but when someone else takes the time to make it For me it just has more appeal. Can apply this to almost any food... however, my fried egg, ham, cheese, pepper, etc. sandwich is tough to beat. Bacon grease.
Augie Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 Probably just because it's been close to 40 years since I've had one, but I always loved a John and Mary's steak sub. The barbecue and Tex-Mex around here is to die for, but you just can't find good subs anywhere, and beef on weck is completely unheard of. What was it about those things??!! How were they so good? I know I've looked on-line to see where they are located and check the menu in the last 6 months, and it's probably been 40 years for me too!

So easy, but tastes so different when somebody else makes it, especially with love. Okay... I just used the line I throw on my wife. Known it since I was five and used it on my parents. ;-) Clean-up does blow! What was it about those things??!! How were they so good?

My inlaws whipped out cold pack from the 1960s. Whatever frozen liquid is in it, your guess is as good as mine... But those sandwiches taste good! Oh...Wait.. Tie this into my post above.
RaoulDuke79 Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Same here! That is a go to sammy! Anybody mention Monte Cristo? Speaking of tornadoes in Cheektowaga, The Holiday Showcase had a good one back in day. Indeed a definite go to....i can't say I've ever really had a bad one, but this place does them pretty good. The French dip is right up there as well. http://www.madchefcraftbrewing.com/menu/ Edited July 23, 2017 by RaoulDuke79

Never mind.

Augie Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 My mom used to put potato chips on PB&J. May I say, I love your mom's spirit!?!? I remember being very young and visiting a friend. His mom asked what I'd like for lunch and I responded "mayonnaise and jelly". I'm sure she gave me a funny look before calling my mom and asking if that was for real. I'm sure I meant a PB&J, but my mom said "sure, give it to him". So she did. I actually went on a little kick of that for a brief period.

ExiledInIllinois Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 Really??? Should I apologize to anyone in particular? My wife! LoL... She hates cranberry and mayo!
Augie Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 My wife! LoL... She hates cranberry and mayo! Please tell Mrs Exiled I sincerely regret my actions and any unfortunate repercussions. I can assure you, it will NEVER happen again.
BringBackFergy Posted July 23, 2017 Posted July 23, 2017 Anyone that has had my Maple Bacon breakfast sandwich on everything bagel at a Bills tailgate and claims another sandwich is their favorite is FULL OF CHIT!!! Your welcome.This
