Hot Grinder Sandwich

I make a lot of sandwiches. I try to mix up the ingredients to keep them from getting “old”. From the bread to the meats, to the cheeses and condiments. I ran across this great approach for a hot grinder sandwich on the Pork Be Inspired site. I had to make it. It’s now my go-to way of preparing a sandwich. You can make it the “classic” way, on a loaf of French or Italian bread, but it also comes out great on ciabatta or any other good bread.

Hot Grinder Sandwich

Customized For Your Tastes

This hot grinder sandwich is great with any meat or cheese. The key is the sautéed green bell pepper and the spiced oil. The crunch of the pepper really makes a difference.

Fried BBQ Bologna Sandwiches

Who doesn’t love a bologna sandwich? Well, this takes the old classic to a whole new level. You’ll find it hard to believe that you’re eating bologna. You’ll think that you’re at a fru-fru fancy dining place. Crispy, fried sandwich meat with spicy BBQ sauce served on a bun with creamy tangy slaw. You need fried BBQ bologna sandwiches right now! And actually, I do too!

Fried BBQ Bologna Sandwiches

These Are Not Boring Sandwiches

These fried BBQ bologna sandwiches are so good that we made them twice this week already. Although I grew up eating my share of bologna sandwiches (on white bread with mayo and maybe a squirt or two of yellow mustard), I never had fried bologna until I moved to the mid-west. Dang, all those years missing out on such awesomeness! I probably wouldn’t put slaw on my sandwiches as a kid, though. In fact, I wouldn’t have anything to do with slaw in my younger years. Now, it’s a totally different story. I love slaw. I can’t get enough of it as a side, on sandwiches, or wherever!

If I’m reaching for a bottled BBQ sauce, I often go for Sweet Baby Ray’s.

Muffuletta Sandwich

I so love the flavors of a muffuletta sandwich. Great meats, great cheese, and Italian olive salad. Warmed just slightly until the bread is soft and the cheese is ooey-gooey. I could eat muffulettas all day long. Which brings me to my gripe. Why doesn’t every single sandwich shop sell muffulettas? I mean, seriously, it’s the best sandwich there is. Oh sure, you can get your roasted turkey with avocado, and maybe a ham on rye, but really… Just jump to the chase and enjoy the best sandwich ever devised. The muffuletta.

Muffuletta Sandwich

Well Worth The Time

I used my homemade Italian olive salad in this muffuletta sandwich. It takes a day to make the salad, but it is very much worth the time. If you don’t want to make your own olive salad, pick up a big jar of olive salad at your grocery store or order some online. Olive salad isn’t cheap, but that’s for a reason. It’s packed with lots of great stuff!

Copycat Subway Italian BMT Sandwich

You don’t need to go out to have a great sandwich. This copycat of the Subway Italian BMT sandwich is outstandingly simply and good. Good meats, fresh toppings and a delicious dressing. I used my copycat of Subway’s sub bread to keep it authentic and yummy! This sandwich was just as much fun to make as it was to eat. And the best part is that I got to customize it just like I want it. For me that means extra. Extra meat. Extra cheese.

Copycat Subway Italian BMT Sandwich

Ooooh. Aaaah. Make It Fancy!

Chez John taught me the trick about rolling up the meats before putting them on the sandwich. Not only does it look awesome, it makes it look like there’s a lot more meat! Try it. People will think you went the extra mile when you made this copycat Subway Italian BMT Sandwich. Granted, your meat doesn’t come rolled when you hit up the chain restaurant for a sandwich. Maybe it should! Or maybe you can smile and ask the sandwich professional to roll it for you. Just make sure you say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’! It’s worth a shot!

Ham Salad Sandwich

I was digging around in the freezer when I came across a container of leftover smoked ham. My first thought was to make your standard ham-and-cheese sandwiches, but after more pondering, I decided that a ham salad sandwich would be way better. And it was. So much better.

Ham Salad Sandwich

A Great Ham Salad For Wraps, Too

This ham salad was fantastic on a sandwich. It has a nice bit of a crunch, and a little kick from the Cajun seasoning (I used more than a dash). The salad is also great in a wrap. And even fantastic on crackers. Got a fru-fru fancy luncheon planned? Yep, finger sandwiches with this salad are bound to impress everyone.

I’m Boiled Egg Challenged

I absolutely stink (best word I could think of) when it comes to making boiled eggs. Hard or soft, doesn’t matter. I am egg challenged. So I picked up a little cheap egg cooker like the one below. This lil baby cranks out 6 eggs in about 15 minutes and they’re perfect each and every time! I don’t even feel bad any more that I just cannot make boiled eggs!

Kicked Up French Dip Sandwiches

I recently made a yummy pot roast sandwich. As soon as we finished off all of the pot roast I was already jonesin’ for more. Instead of making the same thing again, I made kicked up French dip sandwiches. What’s great about them? The addition of a tasty creamy horseradish sauce and caramelized onions. The result was over-the-top good. Super tender meat with great beefy flavor, wonderful onions, and a horseradish kick to boot.

Kicked Up French Dip Sandwiches

A Better French Dip

I used to make more ‘normal’ French dip sandwiches. You know, thin sliced beef with an au jus for dipping. Not ‘kicked up French dip sandwiches’, but still good stuff. But now I’m addicted to shredded beef dip sandwiches with a wonderful horseradish sauce and caramelized onions.

I got the inspiration from my pot roast sandwich, which is actually my take on the same sandwich from the Hobnob Corner Restaurant in Nashville, Indiana. Their tremendously tender super-flavorful beef sandwiches are a big favorite of mine anytime I’m in town.

Steakhouse Grinder

Put it between two slices of bread and I’ll eat it. That’s why we have sandwich night (and day) here often. Sometimes that means a little work. I was a little rushed for time one evening, so I made this version of a steakhouse grinder from Kraft. I was relatively skeptical how it would work out. Would the A-1 steak sauce be too overwhelming?

Well, no, is the answer! The A-1 complimented the vegetables perfectly, giving the sandwich a nice little twang that really, really worked for me. Melted cheese, sauteed onions and mushrooms to boot… you just can’t go wrong.

Messy Is Good

I have made this sandwich several times, changing up the meats and cheeses. Each time it was just what I was hankerin’ for! Interested in the awesome southwestern quinoa salad we had on the side? Click here for the recipe.

I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.

I made a big ol’ batch of 40 garlic clove chicken the other day. It’s a garlic lover’s dream, for sure. Well, I had a bit of chicken leftover, and I thought… boy, this sure would be awesome on a sandwich. So I made 40 garlic clove chicken sandwiches. That’s 40 cloves of garlic, not 40 sandwiches to be clear!

No Such Thing as Too Much Garlic

Hamburger Po Boy

Deluxe Italian Sausage Sandwiches

This is the first time I’ve had two of the almost-same dishes on my go-to list. I’ve made my original sandwiches for years. They’re crazy good, gooey, and messy – all criteria for good eating at game-time. My deluxe Italian sausage sandwiches version are very similar to my original version, but they use my Italian meat sauce recipe instead.

Deluxe Italian Sausage Sandwiches

Messy. In A Very Good Way.

Like I said, these sandwiches are messy, so you know they are good. The more napkins you need, the better it is, I always say. The meat sauce is fantastic. I could eat it all day on anything. I make an extra big batch of the sauce and freeze it in portion-sized containers so I can easily defrost some for a quick sandwich. It’s also great over hamburger buns for an Italian Sloppy Joe.

I highly recommend that you shred or grate your own cheese at home. Don’t buy the pre-shredded or pre-grated stuff. It has stuff added to it to keep it from sticking together. That ‘stuff’ affects how the cheese melts. Shred it yourself and use the good stuff.
