    Sliced pan bread is for people who don't know how to enjoy life.

    Good jesus I love sandwiches.

    White bread, butter, mayo, cheddar, red onion, tomato. Salt and white pepper on the tomato. And salt and vinegar tayto.

    The Christmas night sandwich is my favourite meal of the year. Poppy seeded crusty bread, butter, small but of turkey, plenty of ham and stuffing and some sprouts. The sprouts must be sliced thinly andstir fried with a bit of onion and sesame seeds.

    You were going well there..... and then you mentioned Sprouts!😮

    The perfect sandwich depends on your mood and the time of day. But fresh bread and proper butter are the essential groundwork for having one.

    If it was a last meal/sandwich type of situation I'd go with grilled Turkey, Pastrami, mozzarella cheese, a 2nd stronger cheese, rocket, some diced peppers, tomato, potato salad, garlic mayo, a little hot sauce with cheese and onion crisps. :)

    But if going for something quick it'd be 1 meat, 1 cheese, 1 salad, 1 sauce.

    Avocado is not a common foodstuff. Show me any shop in Ireland selling locally grown avocados and I’ll dip my hat in mashed avocados and eat it in a sandwich.

    It’s food for posers and hipsters.

    Can hipsters stomach the unpalatable truth about avocado toast?

    Has anyone mentioned the 2 slices of buttered batch, 6 fish fingers with hollandaise and a bucket of tea?

    Sounds amazing!
    At 36, I only recently discovered that I like hollandaise.
    All those wasted times I could have ordered the eggs Benedict :D

    Don't hate me but add cripsy bacon to this and it's immense!!!

    Another fav of mine is ham, cheese, iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion and a little coleslaw on thick granary bread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,996 ✭✭✭✭gozunda


    Few years ago had myself a BAT sandwich whilst visiting Spain - but not the flying type rather the Spanish equivalent of Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato.

    Rustic type bread with Spanish Bacon, locally grown Avocados and Tomatoes

    Just thinking about it is making me hungry ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,372 ✭✭✭Ryath


    A proper Double Decker Toasted Club Sandwich on Johnson Mooney and O'Briens Doorstep bread, Real chicken breast pieces, Crispy Bacon, Egg, Lettuce, Tomato and red onion. I'm hungry now after writing that will have to go shopping for ingredients later!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,707 ✭✭✭Bobblehats


    Crisp iceberg lettuce cool mayo and cucumber offset by hot habanero spicy meatballs and molten cheese. It’s the thunberg melt

    Just had epic sandwiches for lunch with my mum.
    White bread (proper, traditional white burnt top pan), freshly roast chicken(still warm), butterhead lettuce, Rebel Chilli barrel aged hotsauce, bit of mayonnaise.

    The shape of a sandwich is important

    some people think triangles taste better, others think you should trim the edges


    they are wrong

    the best shape is circular

    some unleavened bread covered in special tomato sauce and topped with four types of cheese, stick it in wood fired oven until its ready

    serve with copious quantities of beer



    but if you can't wait then a sandwich is good

    fresh batch loaf with crusty edges and make a chip butty with proper chipper chips

    Clean out your toaster.
    That's what the crumb tray is for.

    At Electric Picnic a few years ago I got a sandwich on sour dough toasted bread, smoked duck fillet thinly sliced with a horseradish and tomato relish and some sort of smoked cheese as well. I think there some strange type of red lettuce on it too. Hands down one of the best sandwiches that has ever passed my lips. I still remember it. That place doesn't have a stall at the festival anymore unfortunately.

    Drugs are an excellent aperitif

    Friend of mine had sex with twins.

    How do you tell them apart? I asked.

    Well Barbie has a small tattoo and Brian has a moustache.

    Two slices of heavily buttered toast with 8 cheap sausages and a load of brown sauce.

    Slice pan bread with a lasagne filling.

    The lasagndwich.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,825 ✭✭✭LirW


    Grilled cheese all day long. Extra nice with a little bit of berries or berry jam in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 939 ✭✭✭bitofabind


    Lightly toasted multi-seed bread, mayo, roast chicken fresh out of the oven, avocado, streaky bacon, plum tomatoes with a side of hunky dorys and a big glass of cold orange juice.

    I'm so turned on.

    A sandwich is supposed to be uncomplicated, handheld, and convenient -- not some culinary farce that requires a selection of cutlery and protective wear to consume.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Stilton and crisp bacon with mustard leaf greens
