Cheshire cheese, lettuce, tomato, cucumber and a bit of red onion, on granary bread.

YMMV, but you’d be wrong.

*because otherwise the answer is, obviously, chips

Roast beef, horseradish mayo, red onion.

Some lettuce & tomato if you’re that way inclined.

Cold sausage sandwiches rock.

Stilton and plum chutney

Just had a tiger-prawn bánh mì – t’was nommy.

I can’t peg this down to one. Today, I want nothing more than tuna, mayo and onion and I’d gladly push your mum over in the street to get my sandwich (this may not be true).
Yesterday, your mum would have been pushed for a BLT.
Tomorrow, well, who knows why i’ll be pushing your mum.

Smoked Salmon/Cream Chees/Cucumber/Black Pepper

cold lasagne.

You can thank me later.

Cheese and crisps FTW (but OP, OSM and Jim also have very valid points)

Prets Creyfish salad takes some beating.

Probably because she’s in a wheelchair.

Well laaa-dee-bloody-daa

Cheese and crisps

That’s more like it

This thread is so wrong.
Sandwiches only have two ingredients:

Fresh thick sliced white bread
as much ham as required to match thickness of bread slices.

This is all

Cold sandwiches at this time of year? No ta.

Just nailed me 3 hotdogs from a tin, with wholemeal deli rolls

Corned Beef and HP brown sauce, the corned beef from a time though not your sliced deli posh stuff.

There is no best. Only the best for the moment!

Top choices in no particular order:

1. Real butter, real full strength doorstop of sharp cheddar, thickly sliced strong juicy spanish onion. Crusty bread (bloomer or cob)

2. Tuna and mayonnaise loaded with iceberg lettuce, pickled jalapenos, , sliced green peppers, a few sliced black olives, ground black pepper and honey-mustard dressing. Foot-long on honey-oat. Make sure they don’t scrimp on anything. (spot the Subway!)

3. Salt beef (or lots of pastrami) and sliced emmenthal on rye with chopped dill pickles, finely chopped white onion and a thin spread of both mayonnaise and a sweet mustard.

4. Grated red leicester, sliced toms, sliced cucumber, onion, lettuce, salt, pepper, malt vinegar and plenty of Heinz salad cream. On fat french stick or long roll.

Yegods it’s lunchtime and I have oatcakes and cucumber. < Monday Masochism, I fell off the wagon last night and had a midnight leftover shepherd pie sarnie.

It’s actually lettuce, grated cheese and a fried egg, on thick white bread.

French lass in Bristol taught me that. Quite lovely she was too. Very free-spirited, not the type to settle anywhere for long. Didn’t believe in matching underwear though, which was odd. We listened to a lot of Morcheeba. Sorry, what was the question again?

Coronation chicken in any bread is the winner.

Brown sauce and a bag of crisps.

“cold lasagne.

You can thank me later.”

^ one or my favourite toast toppers ever.

However, in a sandwich – Smoked ham and Stilton, no pickle / chutney or any other accelerant required.

Thick cut granary bread, real butter, left over roast chicken, left over stuffing and salad cream…

Hungry now

corned beef and salad cream.

or

peanut butter and mayonnaise.

both obviously with crisps on.

However. i discovered these recently http://www.warburtons.co.uk/products/wraps-thins-pittas-pockets/brown-toastie-pockets totally changed my life!!

Cold sausage sandwiches rock.
+1. Lincolnshire sausages if available, but Cumberland will do in a pinch.

If that’s not an option, prawn mayo is fairly reliable; salmon and cream cheese another favourite.

In a croissant: ham, brie, thin slice of onion, Colman’s mustard, mayo.

On a Monday after roast pork dinner: roast pork, apple sauce, thin slice of onion, mayo.

Meridian peanut butter (palm oil free, comes in 1Kg tubs) and jam ftw \o/

Bastards! I’m hungry now after reading this!
Emmental, pastrami, gherkins with mustard mayo FTW…or cheese and onion with a bag of Walkers Read Salted crisps when the fridge isn’t so well stocked 😉

Fish fingers and salad cream

Fish fingers and salad cream

Cold filling?

Cold filling?

Err yes. I love cold fish fingers either inside or outside bread.

Coronation chicken in any bread is the winner never the answer.

Cheese and pickle (Mustard or Branston) never fails to delight. Good thick ham and mustard similarly.

in a barm 😀

Long pig.

Last night’s cold dinner is always a winner. Unless you had donner kebab, which is the only food in the world you can’t eat cold next day.

Otherwise corned beef and beans with a smear of hp on crusty bread, if you’re feeling really fancy a boiled egg squashed in too. (I’m a freak, I don’t like baked beans hot but they’re awesome straight from the tin)

Onion bhaji’s with mango chutney and mint raita with a little lettuce to pad it out? Or emmenthal and mushroom pate? with a little salad and mayo on the bottom? Or my current favourite, caramelized onion chutney with smoked cheese and a think layer of sandwich spread underneath?

Peanut butter and marmite

Houmous and cheese and onion crisps is alright although I am slightly pissed…

Serrano ham, cheese, chopped olives and chili in a pitta bread with leaf of choice…

But why would you want a cold sandwhich?

You could have roast pork with stuffing and apple sauce. There is no need to deprive yourself

The butcher a few minutes from work does an incredible one £2 or a large at £3 which is almost, but not quite, too large to eat in a single sitting…

It’s simple, less is more when it comes to a sandwich. Take your bread of choice, add ONE main ingredient plus ONE condiment (or in certain cases salad/cucumber/tomato ilo condiment). For example:

Ham and mustard – either English, Dijon (my preference) or wholegrain.
Beef and English mustard (or horseradish)
Cheese and pickle
Cheese and onion
Cheese and tomato
Turkey and cranberry.
Chicken and Iceberg Lettuce (or a tarragon mayo)
Tuna & Mayo
Brie and grape
Cold lamb is too fatty for a sandwich

Etc, etc

The only one of the above possibly improved by a third ingredient is to add brown sauce (HP!) to a cheese & onion.

Salt and pepper at your discretion.

Bacon or sausage in a sandwich should always be hot (with red or brown sauce)

Thick white, plastered with butter, and Stag Chilli.

Who said fried-egg with salad? That’s crazy talk.
