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!

It's not that bad, if you have a blow torch, you can melt it.

That is what I had to do as a kid with my government cheese.

Ok, I'll throw a little somethin' in this ring! This is my Gotta Go Po'Boy! You know, when you open the fridge and determine what's got-to-go?! This probably should have gone to the DC, but I haven't done a SOTM in ages!!!! Keep in mind that I've never actually had the pleasure of trying a real Po'Boy, so.....I guess this is my interpretation!
 
Here are some of the players. Stop laughing at my boxed shrimps!!!!!   

 
 
To atone for the shrimps, I made a batch of Creole Slaw - red & green cabbage, 'penos, green o's, and my homemade pickled onions (inspired by SoFlo's picklese recipe). I prefer my slaw shredded, but friends don't let friends slice drunkft!!!!

 
 
Emptied out the spice cupboard making my Creole Seasoning from scratch! Worth it.

 
 
Oh yea, there was mustard too. I ditched the dijon tho, and stuck with the stoned. Ground, I mean.

 
 
The components. Tossed the baked shrimps in butter + Louisiana hot sauce. The last of it. Worth it.

 
 
No buns in the fridge, only a partial loaf of French bread. So I carved out faux pistolettes! Scovie called them Cajun Taco shells! 

 
 
The intention - load the boats with side by side slaw and shrimps. The result - my boat sprung a leak.

 
 
The finished product! Topped with some sploogy sauce. It had sour cream and lime juice. And probably something else, but that part's a bit fuzzy. Maybe nothing else, and that's why I can't quite recall it? 

 
 
This was a tasty Gotta Go!!!! No bite shots. Hands were too busy to hold the camera! 'Twas a fun night!

Nice stuffed bread-canoes, CJ. That's how you make cleanin' out the fridge, fun.

 

[Scovie]

Cus thats exactly what it was... FACE FISTING. and running down by arms from the juicynext.

 

[texas blues]

CJ rockin' a frozen box shrimps po' boy!
 
You know shrimps are my favorite.
 
That sammich looks goodern' hell to me.

 

[judohero]

now im going to have to try to make the Cuban and this one

 

[geeme]

That looks scrumpdiddlyumptious CJ!
 
But I'll admit - usually my gotta-go's have to go in the trash. There's a piece of chicken in my fridge right now that's gotta go; I only vaguely remember when my son made it. Just waiting for trash day.....
