Dagwood Sandwich

Begin by mixing the mayonnaise and mustard in a bowl, and mix well.

Take one slice of bread and add a bit of the mayonnaise mixture. Top with a slice of tomato, some iceberg lettuce, then the turkey, and a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. Top with another slice of bread. Add a bit of the mayonnaise mixture on top, then top with some white American, ham, salami, and lettuce. Top with another slice of bread and repeat with the mayonnaise mixture. Add some roast beef, a slice of tomato, the pastrami, and a slice of Swiss cheese. Add another slice of bread, repeat with the mayonnaise, and add the cheddar, pepperoni, and romaine lettuce. Top with the final piece of bread, spreading some mayonnaise mixture on the bottom. Take a toothpick and pierce on olive on the top through the top piece of bread.

Now just sit there and look at this masterpiece. Whatever you do, do not be intimidated. My wife was a bit intimated and resorted to a standard turkey sandwich. I think the mustard, which she is not a fan of, intimidated her. That is my belief. So as I was expecting to share this tower of a sandwich, I was left alone. I was left to sit there and take pictures of it, then gaze at it, and then out of nowhere, my daughter said “I want some of that!”

I sliced the Dagwood on a diagonal, and stared some more. Then, I tore into it.

The Dagwood is stacked. The Dagwood is really fun to eat, and every bite is loaded with an amazing flavor combination. You will find out for yourself when making one. Enjoy.
