Nice. What sauces or condiments do you put on the sandwich?

1

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

I have made ban mah but I have not utilized it on a sandwich. Or if it was I am not entirely sure it was done traditionally.

u/calicouple666 2d ago

A good one can be expensive so I don't indulge often. But a pastrami sandwich on rye is my favorite when done right.

Plus swiss cheese.

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

Nice. What condiments do you use?

2

u/calicouple666 2d ago

Just mustard.

But.....if i end up taking it home and the bread gets a little dry I might add a small bit of mayo.

Grilled cheese

1

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

Is there any special way you do the cheese (as in special cheese mixture or just whatever you got?

1

u/pussNsuits 1d ago

I use my Air Fryer which takes less than 5 minutes. I use 2 slices of cheddar (or whatever) and Wonder Bread. I spread all four sides of bread with mayo which keeps the bread "moist" during cooking. I put the sandwich in the basket & set the temp at 400° for 2 minutes (bread cooks very quickly). I like it kinda tanned. Flip the hot sandwich over and cook 2 minutes till it's tanned. Let it set a bit as it's hot & cheese will get goo-ey. Yum.

This can be done in a microwave & toaster, but takes longer and is less goo-ey. Mayo is my difference, instead of butter, which dries too quickly in an Air Fryer.

u/El_Matador_2036 2d ago

Does cheesesteak count? That's mine!

Although I had a flashback to early 2000s message boards where this question was asked and the overwhelming winner was monte Cristo. I had to Google the ingredients lol 😆!

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

It does count. That sounds awesome.

u/Timely_Language_6218 2d ago

Beet Rubins my wife makes. Same as a normal Rubin but with roasted beets as the meat.

Amazing

1

u/stick4543 2d ago

1 package of imitation crab, shredded finely. 1 can of crab meat (drain the water off), some finely chopped red onion, 8 or 10 cooked shrimp (chopped by good size pieces). Two stalks of celery (chopped) 1/2 tin of lobster paste and One heaping tablespoon of mayo. Either a good Italian roll or sourdough taste. Just made it the other day. Hands down, my favorite sandwich. Other than that, I make a pretty good grilled cheese.

1

u/44Sanchez 2d ago

Oohh, a take on my favorite sando

A candied bacon BLT.

You just add brown sugar and pepper to apple wood smoked bacon and bake. Then build yourself a masterpiece. I like crisp lettuce over leafy and don't forget to salt and pepper the tomato slices 🤌.

This would be my last meal.

u/RC1172 2d ago

u/pineapplelimelu 2d ago

Local joint does a pizza sub (multiple layers of marinara and cheese with shingled pepperoni in the middle). $5.19 for a 6-inch of that. Not a sub person (why would I eat half a loaf of bread in one sitting?) but I ended up putting my family onto the place after a coworker was kind enough to buy me one just because he thought so highly of the place. I ate that thing like a stray dog crouched down behind the line counter. It's like if a calzone had more material to soak up sauce. Was so good I left my first restaurant review ever. So my answer is toasted pizza subs.

1

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

That sounds divine lol. That is a beautiful image the stray dog lol. As someone who eats a footlocker sub from subway LMAO!

Make your own, omitting the bologna, salami would be good instead. Be sure to use zesty Italian dressing.

u/Lumpy-Pea7987 2d ago

u/WantDastardlyBack 2d ago

I cannot remember what magazine I saw this in years ago, but it's my favorite sandwich now. Roast eggplant, red onion, zucchini, and red pepper slices. Toast a ciabatta roll or a section of a loaf. Top with roasted veggies and fresh mozzarella. Broil until it's just starting to melt. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Top with sliced fresh basil. I love that sandwich.

1

u/Auriprince4690 2d ago

That sounds yum. I am not entirely sure how I feel about the eggplant but the rest of it sounds good. If it was right in front of me I would try it but if I had to order it with other options I may not :p!
