The Sandwich/Burger thread
 

We've had - well, what have had so far: Steaks. Cheese. Pizza. Espresso. Beer. Time for a sandwich, or not? This is the sandwich thread. Share your favourite recipe to prepare one, may it be a sandwich, or a burger, or a mixture of both.

My yummy yummy favourite is layered like this:

-fresh bread (I bake my own)
-rich aioli (the 1st secret ingredient)
-roasted turkey, very thin cuts
-Ketchup (not much, a special sandwich ketchup, which is usually a bit sweeter)
-slices of (sweet) cocktail gherkin
-roasted turkey again, very thin cuts
-Camembert! (the 2nd secret ingredient)
-fresh bread

I never use white sandwich bread or the typical round burger bread. Can't stand that undefinable consistence.

For Ketchup, I use a special Danish sandwhich ketchup brand. It's thicker and sweeter.

It's 10:20 PM and you're starting a food thread. You're mean :O:

Two slices good rye bread
Butter (real, not margarine, altho margarine will work)
One homegrown or vine-ripened red tomato
Three slices bacon
Good quality American cheese, sliced in the deli, NOT the stuff in shrinkwrap (I prefer Boar's Head brand)

Fry bacon. Remove from skillet, set aside on a paper towel. Wipe out excess grease from skillet.

Take 3-4 thin slices off bottom of tomato, enough to cover the top of one slice of bread.

Butter one side of each slice of bread. Put first slice on plate buttered side down. Cover unbuttered side with 1-2 slices of cheese. Break bacon slices in half and arrange them on top of cheese. Arrange tomato slices on top of bacon. Cover with 1-2 slices of additional cheese and top with the other slice of bread, buttered side out.

Transfer entire montrosity into skillet over medium low heat. Do not move it once it is in place. Press down on the top lightly with back of cooking spatula to compress the contents and keep sandwich from coming apart when turned. After 3-4 minutes, carefully turn and repeat for the other side.

Remove from skillet to plate and cut in half. Cut up or slice remainder of tomato and add to plate. Top it off with some chips and/or a nice dill pickle for a yummy lunch. :yep:

A simple ham-and-cheddar on plain white bread. Tomato, onion, and some hikory-smoke barbecue sauce. I'm in heaven.

Bison Burgers.

1/4lb of 100% Bison hamburger (we usually use the brand Great Range)
Bulky roll, lightly toasted
Heinz 57 Ketchup
Vlasic Kosher Dill Pickle slices

Simple, Elegant and 100% American. :salute:

Fresh Brown Bread with a thick smoky bacon and a dab on brown sauce. :D

or a fried egg butty. :yeah:

Since you're English, I'm afraid to ask what that is.:dead:
