#20 - Tomato Sandwich​

Country of origin: USA

Fresh tomatoes, salt, and mayonnaise on white bread.

Possibly the simplest sandwich on the list. Got into these recently and I make Kenji Lopez-Alt's version. White bread toasted on just one side, fresh beefsteak tomatoes sliced thick, and kewpie or homemade mayo.

I just barfed in my shirt. WTF man?

This one is one of my go-to sandwiches in the summer, but it’s probably too high up the list. This sandwich is 100% dependent on quality, fresh garden tomatoes.

The #20 ranking assumes that quality of tomato. Supermarket tomatoes wouldn't make this list.

#21 - Club​

Country of origin: USA

Triple-decker sandwich made with sliced turkey or chicken, bacon, tomato, and lettuce; usually contains mayonnaise.

I love a good club and order it more often than I should. Always satisfying.

big club fan, back in the day that was my go to hangover food if I got up too late for breakfast

usually a safe sandwich choice too if you’re traveling and unsure of the quality of the place you’re at

My only complaint is sometimes they’re stacked too high and hard to eat

My #9 sandwich FWIW although now I think I may have it a bit too high

Bolded is very true. A common airport food choice for me.

 

[General Malaise]

I open up sandwiches and discard the tomatoes faster than a gal can say "Hawk Tuah".

 

[General Malaise]

My problem with the club is the bread can be over-toasted so it rips the roof of my mouth apart like a road grader.

 

[Scoresman]

Yeah it goes without saying that if you don't like tomatoes, you wont like a tomato sandwich.

But wow, I would be hating life if I didn't like tomatoes on a sandwich.

Same here when traveling. I think someone mentioned shareability earlier (maybe jokingly so), but I think a good factor when traveling with the spouse and just want a little something to take the hunger off, as easy to share.

I love these. I usually liven mine up with some green leafy lettuce and bacon. mmmm

Lobster roll update

It was the hot buttered style served in a hot dog bun. It was good but it was also $25

Think I prefer the cold, again, not something I get in Michigan too often. I know there is a local deli that does a Lobster Roll week maybe I will hit that up next year

They also had a fried lobster po boy, I was intrigued but already had lobster roll on the brain

Last summer I was on the east end of Long Island with my family and my sisters family (3 adults, 4 kids). Was craving lobster rolls, and told everyone I was buying lunch that day. They had the cold kind with mayo (not too much) but damn if this thing was small. And $35! Everyone ordered, not everyone got lobster rolls, thank God, but total comes out to like $270.00. For lunch! Whatever, I was on vacation, take out my card, and they are like, sorry sir, cash only. wtf carries cash. Had to borrow $160.0 from my sister PRobably will not be returning (definitely will not be returning). Was still hungry when we left

#19 - Po-Boy​

Country of origin: USA

Crusty long roll split and filled with cold cuts, roasted beef or fried seafood. The New Orleans analogue to the sub or hoagie.

So many different types. I've had some variations of shrimp, catfish, and sausages.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Big fan, but this is one that can be very hit or miss

Make these at home sometime then butter the bread and finish it in a pan like you would a grilled cheese.

Fantastic

Sub fresh ground pepper for the salt and I'm with you.

One of my favorite sandwiches in the world

Both salt and bp for me

Big fan, especially the fried seafood variants, but again not too popular in the north. I think the first time I had one was in Shreveport LA

Definitely something im on the lookout for in a coastal setting

Im not opposed to tomato or lettuce on a sandwich, but in most cases im passing. It’s not that I don’t like them, but more of the threat of some giant poorly cut lettuce or tomato that just causes everything to slide around and then half your meat is sticking out, then you go to remove it and it takes half of your sauce with it. Im much more willing to go lettuce if it’s shredded

Obviously needed on a [redacted]
usually get on a [redacted]
For a burger I will do it at home if I can cut myself or if I know the place uses shredded lettuce and smaller tomatoes

 

[Beef Ravioli Part 2]

Because of this thread, I made some amazing egg salad on Tuesday, and had a great Pork Belly Banh Mi today for lunch along with some amazing Pho.

Also, whoever recommended the sandwich documentary on the first page, thanks! Enjoyed it much!

great food discoveries for me on that trip

It's definitely a thing. With amazing tomatoes, it's one of the best. I wouldnt make with supermarket tomatoes.

Classic Tomato Sandwich

When tomatoes are at their summertime peak of ripeness, this Southern classic makes sure to let them shine, sandwiching thick slices between white bread and mayo.

My grandfather liked these.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Yeah shrimp or fried oysters would be my top choice. Then probably catfish

 

[Scoresman]

#18 - Cubano​

Country of origin: Cuba

Ham, roasted pork, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and sometimes Genoa salami on Cuban bread, sometimes pressed and warmed in a plancha.

One of only two sandwiches I will eat mustard on. Love a good cubano. Recently got to try the Cubano from the "Chef" truck in Vegas.

#17 - Pulled Pork​

Country of origin: USA

Pork shoulder, slow cooked until fall apart tender, on a bun.

What my crock pot makes the most. I just love the tanginess of the apple cider vinegar and a good BBQ sauce.

Might as well just microwave a tub of Curlys

#24 - Patty Melt​

Country of origin: USA

Consists of a hamburger patty, pieces of sautéed or grilled onion, and Cheddar or Swiss cheese between two slices of bread.

Two slices of bread instead of a bun and pretty specific toppings distinguish this from the hamburger.

It seems like I would like a patty melt but some reason the ratios are just thrown off when bread is used instead of a bun. I can't explain it but I am always disappointed every time I have ordered a patty melt.

My dad says he loves patty melts and he whenever he gets them when we go out he always is disappointed as well. Says they are good but I have never seen him happy with his selection after ordering one.

I think the concept is solid but the application just never hits.

 

[BobbyLayne]

#34 - Chopped Cheese​

Country of origin: USA

Made on a grill with ground beef, onions, and topped by melted cheese and served with lettuce, tomatoes, and condiments on a hero roll.

Spent a couple days on a sandwich mission one trip to New York and this was a target since I've never seen one outside of NYC. This one is as amazing as it sounds.

My personal favorite atm

#50 - Peanut Butter & Jelly​

Country of origin: USA

Peanut butter and jelly or jam on bread

An American classic and probably a favorite if you are 8 years old. Personally, I never liked so much sweet on a sandwich, so my variation as a kid was peanut butter only and it knocks this one to the bottom of my rankings. May not be a popular decision.

Quality peanut butter and a jalapeño or habanero jelly makes for a good sandwich.

I am surprised with all the discussion on the PB&J that nobody has ventured into the creamy vs chunky PB aspect of the sandwich.

I prefer chunky but it’s only a slight preference. Wife hates chunky. So for twenty years I ate creamy. Now we have multiple jars of peanut butter going, including Trader Joe’s cookie butter.

Cookie butter is like eating a spoonful of sugar. It is sickeningly sweet

True. I won’t eat one unless I’m near a beach.

 

[Instinctive]

Anyone have a favorite version of egg salad for their sandwiches? I'm inspired and now Saturday is BLT night and Monday will be egg salad sandwiches.

 

[shuke]

Fresh ripe tomatoes with some salt are probably a top 5 food for me. I've never had the desire to put them on plain white bread. Just eat them.

idk man as someone who generally has been anti mayo all life...it goes great with tomatoes either alone or on a BLT, and in egg dishes. So I'm on board with this plain tomato sandwich thing.

I need to see a tomato sandwich eat off. I don’t have the right stuff right now except for mayo

Fixed

i'm good with rye or sourdough.. swiss and/or jack

have you been to Bill's on Clement. that place was a staple growing up

I have dreams of the Herb Caen burger from Bill's. Such a simple burger, but so so good.

I was typically:
patty melt
paul Kantner
jax beaux

... and would get swiss or jack with them

and a big chocalte shake or malt
