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.
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 recently discovered Blue Plate mayonnaise, which I think is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.
