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!

Cool and the gang.
 
I picked up some country style pork ribs today to start in the crock pot.
 
I aim to pull the potted pic and then get down brown with it on the flat top.
 
It'll be rockin'.

Maybe it's time to knock the dust off the ol sandwich press...Picnic shoulder is on sale this week. 

 

[JayT]

I have a pork loin, would that be acceptable?

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Don't ask just do.

[frydad4]

yea, loin is fine.
The Cuban culture is wonderful, vibrant, loving, family oriented, fun! Something I get to enjoy by proxy living as the one of 17 white guys in Miami. 
They don't fuss too much about stuff like which cut of roast pork to use on a Cuban sandwich. 
I like picnic shoulder because I can make chicharrones.
...and it's cheap. $0.59/lb on sale this week at Sedanos! 
 
Are we allowed to "interpret" our sandwiches to make them different from the others?

You just HAVE to de different!!! Hehe. I like those though, the bread is like brioche. My place closed down they used to serve them half the size of a Cuban and I'd get a black bean soup.
