The Best Club Sandwich
I don’t share many sandwich recipes here because most deli-style sandwiches don’t need one—they’re easily customized to what you have or crave.
But some sandwiches do need a recipe: chicken salad, pesto chicken, and sliders. While this might look like a typical deli sandwich, let me tell you why I’m sharing it—we’re completely OBSESSED with it at home, and I couldn’t not share it!
You can customize the fillings, but the real star is the sauce. It’s the “secret ingredient” that takes this sandwich to another level. Make this sauce, and you’ll be the sandwich superstar!
What’s inside the club sandwich. This is pretty much whatever you want or already have in your fridge. I’ll highly recommend the combo we’ve been trying, but obviously if you don’t like avocados, don’t add them 🙂
I like to start with 3 meats — bacon, turkey, and ham. The favorite veggies? Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, and avocados. And the cheese? None other than muenster cheese. Other alternatives that would work great: a white American cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and even a sharp cheddar would taste great with everything else!
So finally to the sauce. It’s only five ingredients (excluding salt and pepper) of mayo, BBQ sauce, a little bit of lemon, and of course honey + mustard. It may sound a little bit odd, but I promise you’re going to be obsessed with this sauce. I’ll also let you in on a family secret — not only do we spread this sauce on top + bottom of the sandwich, we also include it in dipping bowls to DIP the club sandwich in. Too much? Never!
