  • Turkey and Cheddar on rye

    Weekday lunch. It’s a good time to get out with work friends and catch up on times past. Though it’s also a good time to lock the office door and hide under your desk alone. Before ducking, though, consider your lunch. This one is piled high with mesquite wood smoked turkey breast and smoked cheddar. […]

  • Corned beef on rye

    It’s taken us almost a decade to get a Reuben up here. We had a terrible corned beef experience in 2015 that turned us off for good, so we never got around to revisiting this classic. Luckily we’ve been blessed with the generosity of our guest photographer, James O’Meara, who has been carrying the site […]

  • Fried Stuffing and Cranberry on Rye

    It’s our annual tradition to post Thanksgiving leftovers the week after the tasty turkey day, and here we have one without turkey!

  • Pastrami on rye

    You’ll find nothing more than pounds of meat on these pieces of bread.

  • Pastrami and Turkey on rye pumpernickel

    This is one of those sandwiches that’s built for confusion, which makes it a perfect representative of today’s society. You bite and feel the tang of the rye pumpernickel– good, but flavored with something else. Ah yes, spiced yellow mustard takes over your attention. Then a kick of smoked herbs from pastrami step to the […]

  • Ham, Turkey, and Cheese on rye

    It’s just another lunch in a long line of lunches. You get a short break to make the most out of your free time. Put off the errands and make yourself a thick, meaty sandwich. Toasted rye will slightly melt the mayo into your bread, giving it a subtle moistness in the face of all […]

  • Egg Salad and Spinach on rye

    We should all probably take the stairs more often. While we’re at it, we should also have an egg and spinach salad sandwich. Two ways to build a healthier lifestyle: exercise and a diet rich in protein, fiber, and vegetables. Take a bite of this sandwich’s creamy goodness and feel the paprika and mustard tang […]

  • Beef Patty Melt on rye

    Boxers call it a one-two punch– landing two fast consecutive hits. You could easily call it a beef patty melt. At first bite, the grilled rye bread will hit your taste buds hard, then Swiss cheese will follow-up quickly. You’ve only had one bite. Continue on with the endurance of a seasoned pro through each […]

  • Liverwurst and Onion on rye

    Take your mouth to Germany with a bite of liverwurst and onion on rye and a dash of spicy mustard. With the texture of dog food and a sweet onion crunch, this sandwich shows you what it’s like to eat a poor man’s pate. The taste is slight and it’s been called creamy, but meat […]
