Fett and Pickles ATS sandwhich club

please dont forget the ATS Sandwhich club motto....

"FORWARD WITH FILLINGS"

The "Trotsky"

Perimeter: Pumpernickel, hot from the toaster

Basal layer: red sauerkraut, strained (hate the sogging of bread!)

Understory: extremely thinly sliced (1/16th inch or less) uncooked, peeled potato, proabably 6 slices max.

Foundation: shredded Brisket

Superstory: Baby swiss, sliced thin, 2 slices

an extremely thin wisp of chinese hot mustard.


The name is an allusion the fact that, although Trotsky was intimately involved in the Russian revolution, his real name was Lev Bronstein, and he was ethnically German---hence the "red" kraut hiding beneath the potatoes. There is also an analogy that could be made with the "reuben," often considered a Kosher sandwich.

That, and the fact that my uncle Stan, while witnessing the sandwich being made, remarked that there was something "communistical" about anyone eating raw potato.

.

Just my 2 cents, but I think dr_strangecraft should receive something special for that.

quite correct Mr. Penny.......Dr strangecraft.....your are obviously a master when it comes to the art of the sandwhich.....it is with great pleasure we welcome you within our ranks.....

Snacks of mass distruction..

Bread: Netto Thick sliced (has a 'half-life' rather than a 'shelf-life')
Layer1: Mars Bar, sliced laterally into 6 slices so as to achieve a layer of caramel and nougat in each slice
Layer2: Monster Munch (Beef & Onion)
Layer3: Salad Cream (found at the back of flatmates cupboard during clandestine ingredients raid)

I understand that this constitutes a breach of the terms by the UN I.B.I.A (International Butty Inspection Authority) and that under threat of sanctions, all aforementioned snack-building apparatus has now been dismantled.

Before you ask, I freely confess my sincere belief that successful new foods tend to be ones that are named after tyrants and revolutionaries. I'm not sure why this is the case, but it seems to apply. For specific evidence refer to my ill-starred

Food Fascism Thread of many years ago.

Timski....

firstly...your lucky to have come out of that one alive....

theres been a trend recentley with the younger members of our association abusing sandwhiches and there fillings....i think you have clearly demonstrated how far some people are willing to go...sure...its fun until some one gets hurt.

We take an active role in policing many of the renagade 'sepratist' movements that have been coming to light....a particularly nasty case was the one recentley in Levenshulme (manchester) where 3 young males died after eating cadburys fruit and nut mixed with phillidelphia cream cheese and chives on warburtons brown thin slice.....sure the ingriedients are fine on their own...but mixed????.....

what a complete waste of young life....

Its also noteworthy whilst on the subject, to mention the growing trend in "happy sandwhich slapping", youngsters slapping ordinary folk with various sandwhich combinations and then filming it on mobile phones.

We would like to say now that any member of our society caught or reported engaging in this kind of stupidity will be severley repremanded...possibley even forced to go on holiday in france.....its severe but the punishment must match the crime.

Welcome Timski.

There's a shop in town that makes THE BEST (I can't stress that enough) sandwiches in the world!

My personal favourite would have to be either, Chinese Chicken or Prawn Mayonnaise. *drools*

Oh yeah, and it ain't any normal sandwich... it's all enclosed in the best baguette ever.

They're a bargain too! You can buy a large Chinese Chicken for about £1.50!


....I want a sandwich now.

Well you've just counted yourself out of the club

The Hot Heretic

Sourdough bread, sliced and toasted
Grilled Chicken Breast (pounded thin before grilling)
Slice of Jack Cheese (melted slightly)
2 strips bacon
1 roasted green chile splayed open over the lot.
A few spinach leaves
Chipotle Mayo

I await my induction...

That, my man....is grounds for ridiculous amounts of scorn and ridicule. B******es simply pervert the very idea of a properly conceived, constructed, and consumed (!!) sandwhich.

Actually, his problem comes earlier in the post:

"there's a shop in town that sells . . .

Sandwiches aren't SOLD. Such commodification of pleasure-inducing enzymes is the very definition of the excesses of capitalism.

Real sandwiches are given away. To people you love.

Very much.

Or enjoyed as a solitary vice.

.

I'd vote for it. I mean "you." (sorry).

What would you serve with that? chips, maybe. Just please, for the love of God don't mention any kind of dipping sauce . . .

Turkey Bacon and Cheddar on toast or a hard roll.. with the bacon warm... the cheese slightly melted and like... the turkey at the perfect temperature.. yummm

We LOVE dippin' sauce, but I think I'd go with french fries.

But I'd definitely have a PICKLE on the side...

I'm glad you didn't list that fable about some guy named Earl inventing the sandwich.

For me the simple Cuban Sandwich has to rate at the top of the list:

In the US it is usually a plain white sub roll (Cuban roll when available)
Standard Deli Ham
Cuban Ham
Swiss
Can't forget the pickles (of course)
Mustard

Note: Sometimes I throw a little aftermarket mayo on to give it a little zing!

Oops! Putting mayo ona Cuban doesn't disqualify me from membership, does it?

At least I didn't say baguette! I feel sorry for that guy!

Wish Sandwich

Ingredients:
- 2 slices of plain white bread

Assembly:
Slap 'em together and wish you had something to put between them.

I know it's a poor submission, but there were such days.

Or as the Blues Bros would say:

2 pieces of bread and you wish you had some meat!

I knew that one was coming from someone.
