I'm liking it. The way I vote is what makes my mouth water when reading and looking. So far yours does that. :)

POTAWIE that club is crazy. The pics look good but if you size them a tad bigger we can see what's going on there better. I can't see all the detail.

I love clubs.

Re-sized, and I added a pic. Thanks for the tip bossman:)
 
Here's my teaser. Got me a whole 6lbs. chinook salmon (King Salmon for you Yanks), ciabatta baguettes, bacon, tomatoes, mayo, sour cream, mustard seed, corriander, maple syrup, kosher salt, Szechwan peppercorns, Defcon 1, and a cedar plank. It's on the BBQ now.

Oh yea, can't forget the $.53 ala JayT ;)

The Kentucky Hot Brown!:

Ingredients:

-Crusty bread of your choice (this was sourdough)
-Smoked turkey breast
-Thick-sliced bacon, chopped or whole
-flour
-bacon fat for roux
-whole milk
-heavy cream
-parmesean/romano cheese
-shredded habanero cheddar
-tomatoes
-T-scorp powder
-habanero slivers

The bacon is fried to a medium crispy, then drain all but a few tablespoons of the pan drippings. Add the flour and whisk to a nice blonde roux. Crank up the heat to high and the milk and cream go in.....stirring constantly. When the "bechamel" comes together, add in the parmesean, romano, and habanero cheddar to create the mornay sauce. Season with T-scorpion powder and S&P.

Lightly butter on side of your bread and place under the broiler for about 3 minutes, or until browned. Place toasted side up on the plate, add your pre-smoked turkey, bacon, sliced tomatoes, and cover with the mornay sauce.

Place the plate under the broiler to lightly brown the surface of the sauce. Sprinkle with more T-scorpion powder, a bit of pepper, and slivers of orange habanero......garnish....and serve!

You will never meet a more sinful sandwich in your whole life! Smokey, cheesey, crunchy, bacony plate full of pure heaven! Retta would step over her own mother to have it! And I KNOW mine is better than the original from the Brown Hotel.



Hope it fares better than the po-boy.
