I don't have my kitchen in order so I may do a NY cold cut sammy, my style. We'll see. If I had my kitchen I'd do something crazy. Hmmm. I don't know yet.

would you like a little cheese with that whine boss?
 
Here's a few teasers from Potawieland
11 Grain bread with hickory smoked bacon and hickory grilled, fatalii marinaded chicken breasts. Potawie likes his chicken spicy!

Shrimp and asparagus? Olives? Even drunk......I can't get next to that! Weird shit-o-meter.....that's an 8. Paul...your freakiness has reached new levels. Bring teh hot brown!!

I'd normally agree with you, TB,....BUT;

The asparagus isn't cooked......it's been pickled......think crunchy, tart, and spicy. ;)

The olives have been living with the habaneros for 6 months and are little fire-bombs.....went very well on the side of the po-boy!

Besides.....the hot-brown is my ringer!
 
I had a lot of ideas for this throwdown but nothing seemed to work out the way I planned. I really wanted to do cured/smoked Montreal smoked meat sandwich, but I couldn't find any brisket locally. I also have some dry cured salamis that weren't quite dry enough to use, and my fresh tomatos were close but not quite ripe
Anyways, I decided sort of last minute to make POTAWIE'S CLUB ROYALE- American clubhouse sandwich but I like to call it the NORVILLE ROGERS
Its basically a fusion between a grilled cheese(actually 3) and an American club sandwich but with lots of bacon, and triple fatalii flavoring.
I started with my favorite 11 grain bread and made 3 grilled cheese sandwiches, 2 with cheddar, 1 with mozzarella. One sandwich then a layer of fatalii mayonaise, I just went with store bought mayo and mixed in pureed fatalii. Then I added the 2 hickory grilled chicken breasts which were marinaded with fatalii puree and then seasoned with smoked fatalii powder and smoked in the afternoon. More mayo then another grilled cheese, more mayo, a full pound of hickory smoked bacon(smoked Friday afternoon), tomato, lettuce(freshly grown and picked), more mayo and then the top grilled cheese. Also had to add a few mixed hot peppers on the side. In my opinion the sandwich was incredible tasting, the only minor problem was that the grilled cheese got a little cool after assembly and photographs, but really it was hardly noticeable. I can also feel my arteries clogging as I type
Now that I look at the pic, I did put some of the bacon on the bottom layer. Its very difficult to see the full pound of bacon goodness

Here's the leaning tower

Potawie, that 'tower'...sandwich kabob looks awesome! You really pulled out all of the stops for that one.

Paul, I regret this, but I must agree with TB, that shrimp sandwich just seems like too weird of a combo for me.

Mel, your sandwiches looks divine. The more you post, the more I know Mrmel is one lucky dude (read, my wife doesn't cook much :lol: )

Death, your entry looks so professional and I think it should be served on a white table clothed table. Wow! It's gorgeous.

This is a great Throw down so far, everyone surely has set the bar high on this one.
