Turkey Slider on ciabatta
So how can you make the usual flat turkey burger into something a little racier? Chipotle powder. That’s pretty much all you need. Once you get that spicy flavor embedded, you may find yourself needing to tame it with lettuce and provolone cheese. Add to it the crispy, seasoned ciabatta roll to complete this delicately […]

Meatloaf BLT
Who needs bread when you have a loaf of meat? This is one way to take the classically-thought-of light and tame BLT to another level. Take those healthy ingredients of (turkey)bacon, lettuce, and tomato and sandwich them between two slabs of meat. It may not be flaky and crispy like toast, but damn it’s a […]

Turkey and Peaches on bread thin
It may not look like much, but the hidden gem in this piece is a small amount of Italian dressing between that turkey and the toasted bread thin.

Turkey Pastrami on rosemary olive roll
The last time we featured pastrami, we were put on indigestion medicine for a solid month of discomfort. We never learn. Here’s turkey pastrami on a roof. It’s a nice season to sit out and catch some rays, and while this isn’t a hot sandwich, it’s certainly “hot” for all it’s flavors and fragrance. The […]

Italian Sub (Hoagie) No. 3
We went to Jersey Mike’s Subs for today’s portrait, held tight like a prized possession by guest portraiteer James O’Meara. Upon entering, the order was simple: “The Original Italian with everything but olives.” Jersey Mike’s doesn’t have olives! So they piled on all the fixins bringing the total ingredients to provolone, ham, prosciuttini, cappacuolo, salami, […]
