(OT) If you had to name a Sandwich Captain of your Sandwich Team, what kind of sandwich would it be?

[Doohickie]

Does fried chicken smothered in gravy with egg on top between a biscuit count? Because if so that is our starting GT. 

 

I'll allow it.

JFC. I've never had one of those. Suggested place to order one?

You were *this* close!  You add some turkey and another slice of bread and BAM!  Turkey Club.  Best.  Sandwich.  Ever. 

 

(On Rye)

 

Turkey Club is correct, and Rye is always the right bread for like 80% of sandwiches.

Thank you.  I would think it would be more obvious.

Jewish rye with seeds and it's not a club without toothpicks in them

Agreed.

[PASabreFan]

Hey 11,

 

I hope you are prepared to /thread ...

 

Montreal Smoked Meat ..........

So Nathan Blowlieu? (I'll let myself out.)

Can we agree you can't have a sandwich captain who's held together with toothpicks?

Can't you let it go, PA?  Just let it go.

[darksabre]

I'm with PA on this. No toothpicks. Toothpicks cost us the cup in '06.

I’m not even sure I’m cool with a sandwich having a roll instead of bread.

The Sabres are held together by toothpicks.  I don't want my Sandwich Captain held together by toothpicks.

And the colored cellophane on the toothpicks is like the red practice jersey. Careful, don't touch our F R A G I L E "captain."

 

No thank you.

I rise out of my scooter to applaud the gentleman from Buffalo.

Now we are getting somewhere....

 

The Captain needs to be the glue that holds the team together. What is the glue in a sandwich? Melted cheese. First rule of sandwich captaincy is, melted cheese holding the thing togethet under it’s own strength is a must.

Now, I might allow those little plastic swords...

So, if you would to elaborate on your Cuban sandwich platform, are you proposing original Tampa style (includes salami) or Miami style (does not)?

[LGR4GM]

Miami style! A Cuban with salami... just no. 

[Doohickie]

What kind of moron would put Salami on a Cuban???

I’m not even sure I’m cool with a sandwich having a roll instead of bread.

 

Yep.  A simple round roll, no way.  A hoagie roll?  Maybe.

[Weave]

Never had a Tampa style. Did not know such a beast exists.

 

Ham, the two way player here. Crowd pleasing. Reliable.

 

Roast pork. This is the star. Pure, unadulterated meat. Here is where the skill really shines. Great roast pork is the same kind of artistry as the in and out toe drag.

 

The pickles supply the vinegar. If its on your team you love the vinegar, but if its working against you it is downright unpleasant.

 

Mustard. Spice. Add the spice of mustard to the skill of roast pork and you’ve got creativity on top of the talent.

 

The pressed, toasted bread means it is compacted, think concentrated. All that ability in a controllable package. It’s coachable is what that means.

 

And we get to the melted Swiss cheese. The glue binding it all together. All that substance and a glue that makes it stronger than the sum of its parts.

 

The choice is obvious.

[Doohickie]

It's not my captain so I can agree with this, but can we agree it's not a Club without them??

 

No.

 

Three slices of bread:  Required for a Club.

Toothpicks:  Not required.  It's still a Club if you just cut it in half instead of quarters (and thus no toothpicks required).

[Weave]

No.

Falls apart to readily to be captain. A club sandwich is Robin Lehner. Great numbers that doesn’t hold up under pressure.

[darksabre]

Guys a Cuban sandwich isn't playing hockey.

[rakish]

Not a Wegmans sub, that's for sure. I already put my vote in for Reuben but I'm willing to accept other options.

 

Wegmans subs are Jody Gage, Captain of the Supermarket Sandwich team. But there's a local shop out there doing the NHL version of everything Wegmans does. You just gotta have scouts who know where to look.

 

If you look at history, scouts are very bad in finding sandwiches.
