Sandwich of the Month

Hey y'all. A recent discussion with THP about Cuban sandwich's in another thread has inspired me to begin this thread.

What is a sandwich? According to wiki...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich

I myself shall endeavor to post a Sandwich of the Month for every month. This month I tip my hat to one of my favorite sandwiches, The Cuban.

While I encourage y'all to post up your Cuban for SOTM, for the sake of popularizing the thread, feel free to post your sandwich. Be it BLT, turkey sub, gyro, po'boy, etc.

Some rules.

1 ~ Meet the criteria as linked above according to wiki.

2 ~ True, burgers are sandwiches but as we have other threads devoted to them, we will not include them here in this thread. No burgers.

3 ~ List ingredients and methods of how the sandwich was put together.

4 ~ No matter if it is a classic reuben or tuna salad, include a heat ingredient.

5 ~ Pics are mandatory. Talk is cheap. Show us the money!

6 ~ No tortillas. We have taco threads already, and that also means no stinkin' "wraps".

7 ~ Have fun.

I'll post up my sandwich shortly.

Bon appetit!

I usually save sammiches for leftover meatloaf. Brown both sides in a pan and make a meatloaf patty melt with 1000 Island, Swiss and grilled onions. This was really good though. I added a couple Biker Billy jalas to it but i could not really taste them.
 
Outstanding meatloaf sammich.
 
And makes a great taco too!
 
Ono grinds.
 
Teriyaki Spam.
 
I didn't even crisp it up in cast iron.
 
And then I made a sammich.
 
With mayo.
 
Jalapenos.
 
Pickles.
 
Tomatos.
 
Onions.
 
Pepperidge Farm Whole Wheat Slider Buns.

Has ever requested a vegetarian last meal.

I'm old enough now that I don't give a shit anyhow.
 
 
The only problem with Spam is this...
 
It tastes like the new hotness.
 
But it looks like your grandma.
 
So call me Ray Charles.
 
 
Not spicy but great southern staple - The tomato sandwich aka "mater sammich."

WM at least mix your own hot sauce in the mayo. I know the tomato is the main event but even a little amount in mayo is a nice touch.
 
THP,
 
Honestly, I've never considered it. Been eating it the same way all my life, (excepting of course the tomatoes) which vary from time to time. I ate them as a kid, don't know what kind they were really, but my dad would make'em and they were good. At one time here in the southeast America, there used to be road signs that indicated a "picnic area."  It was a sign (as best I can recall) with a picnic table and a tree. On road trips, I remember we would stop at such places and he would make tomato sandwiches. I don't see those signs anymore (at least not where I travel.) 
 
I might try as you suggest (as an experiment.) No doubt it would be good (I hasten to add "my own" sauce) but it may alter my reasoning to make them in the first place. Because I like them? - yes!  Because they are good? - yes! Because they harken back to great childhood memories? -yes!
 
I will give it a go. If it messes up some "time continuum" or some psychological sh*t, I coming for you, mayonnaise, tomato and sauce in hand! I got your name, I got your number......
