Slow day today and I had a PB and J for lunch today.

I use option A

Edited to add last option

I voted for the first option, and anything else would be un-American and therefore just plain wrong.

 
PB on both first, jelly on both second, smash together.

Forgot to add, ice cold glass of milk is a must!

Peanut butter on 1 side of each slice. Jelly on 2 sides of another slice. Smash together. Triple decker. :rolleyes:

 
Voted "PB on one slice, Jelly on the other, push them together".

However, I use three slices of bread as follows:

1. PB the top and bottom slice

2. Jelly one side of the middle slice and place it (jelly-side down) on the bottom slice

3. Jelly the remaining side of the middle slice

4. Place top slice (PB-side down) on top

 
I know this sounds a bit odd. I do one standard one slice pb and one slice jelly but then I put a slice of american cheese on the pb and fried jalapeno slices (or fresh/jarred - whatever I have on the jelly side (holds them in place). Then must have lots of chips and cold milk. An easy way to go is with jalapeno jelly though.

 
I make mine using the Option A method, but a friend mixes the peanut butter and jelly in another container and spreads it all on in one swipe. She says the jelly sticks better. Then when watching her kids, they flip if you use option A. Conversely, my kids thought the mixed together ingredients was scary.

 
Peanut butter (don't be shy with it either) on both slices of bread, a thin layer of grape jelly on one of the slices (take your pick), strategically place lays potato chips on the jelly side, put the peanut butter only side on top, smash, enjoy. /thread

 
If you are not going to eat the sandwich immediately, then putting a layer of PB on both slices as a sealant so the jelly doesn't seep into the bread is the shark move. I also make the triple decker, but I do a layer of PB and Jelly on top of each other on 2 slices, with a clean third slice as the top.

 
I chose option B. Will try option A tomorrow and report back.

Here's one of my favorite sandwiches, built as seen:

bread

raisins

honey

banana

peanut butter

bread

 
I walked across the street, picked up some floofy French strawberry preserves and have eaten two PBJs since this thread started.

 
I always put a thin layer of margarine on the slice that gets the PB. Keeps it from sticking to the roof of your mouth.

;)Also, it is very important to wipe the knife clean between the peanut butter and the jelly. It is not acceptable to have peanut butter in the jelly jar or vice versa.Oh yeah, and I use jam, not jelly. Easier to spread and stays in the sandwich better.

...Lets not forget grilled PB&Js.Lightly butter the outside and grill like a grilled cheese. It gets all gooey and warm and awesomer.
 
Always 3 slices of bread minimum.

Flip top two slices over, so they will match up properly upon assembly.

Apply PB to aforementioned flipped slices. Wipe knife clean on third slice before dipping into jelly.

Apply J to unflipped slice.

Re-flip one PB slice onto J slice.

Apply J to newly flipped slice.

Re-flip final PB slice onto J, completing the masterpiece.

 
This thread is like visiting an alien planet. The correct answer is clearly 'A'. Good night and good luck.

 
interestingly, my wife was making PB&Js for the homeless the other night. she asked me to help so i said OK. in the end, all i could do was bag them because of her insistence on doing B. it was all i could do to not take the knife and cut off her hands because she wouldn't follow A.

:o Not enough that they're homeless but she has to rub it in their face with a ******* of a sandwich?

 
Serious question for the 'B' people: how do you ensure proper jelly distribution over the entire sandwich? Maybe I'll have to try this god-forsaken method just to find out what a hellish concoction it creates. If I'm not back by morning, call the police.

 
I do B, with a little extra variation: I also build up a little great wall of PB around the 4 edges of the slice before putting on the jelly. When I put the top slice on it seals everything in so no jelly leaks while eating, plus extra PB!

 
I came in here to vote "knife"... But in a pinch, I'll use a spoon or fork... either one if there are no butter knifes clean. It's a little more difficult to spread the peanutbutter, but you manage.

 
Toasting the bread or even a little grilling of this sandwich (not too much or the insides will melt and run everywhere)... makes this sandwich divine.

I also dig peanut butter and jelly on Graham crackers.

My wife needs to put it in the microwave for 10 seconds before she'll eat a PB&J.
 
PB on each slice then jelly

smash together

marg/butter on the outside

fry like a grilled cheese in a pan until outside is brown and PB is soft and runny

dunk in chocolate milk when eating.

oo-y goo-y goodness.

 
Peanut butter on both and jelly inbetween. Kids always had jelly soaked bread at lunch and mine was protected by the peanut butter.
