I’ve never met a sandwich I didn’t love, from traditional PB&Js to these untraditional Big & Tangy Reuben Pockets. I jump for joy when someone says they’re serving sandwiches, but I’ve seen others yawn at the mention of the bread-on-both-sides meal. (Probably because they don’t expect anything out of the ordinary.) Little do they know, the definition of a sandwich can include dishes like this Italian Chicken Braid. If there’s bread around a center of some sort, I call it a sandwich. Here are six of my favorite ways to get creative with the classic.
Panini-Pressed
The Juicy Lucy Rollwich is filled with a favorite flavor of Minnesotans (cheese stuffed inside a burger). As a native of the state, I think it works perfectly in this rolled up ‘wich that’s great for lunch or dinner. Check out how easy it is to make the perfect rollwich here.
Slow-Cooked
My favorite thing about a slow-cooker sandwich is how much flavor it has sans bun. It’s amazing what sandwich fillings can do when they’ve simmered for hours. I won’t have my favorite beef brisket ‘wich any other way. Needless to say, these Slow-Cooker Easy French Dip Sandwiches grace my table weekly. Here are a few more of my favorite slow-cooker varieties.
