The humble sandwich

I just hammered home for lunch (and to swap bike for car as I need to give a colleague a lift home after work) and made myself an 'over easy' fried egg laid on a couple of slices of carvery ham nestled between two slices of homemade bread and liberally sprinkled with ground black pepper and sea salt.
If not the king of sandwiches then certainly a minor royal.
What is your take on the finest homage to the Earl? And sorry, to our transatlantic cousins on here, PB&J is specifically outlawed. Even a gambling sex fiend like the fourth Earl couldn't possibly eat so foul a concoction.

Simple jam (your choice of fruit) with real butter - both sides of bread buttered to let the jam slide about pleasingly. Yum.0

Sausage and egg, with brown sauce in some lightly toasted white bread. I've just finished the sandwiches my lovely wife made for me, but am salivating at the thought of sausage and egg. Mmmmmmm...0

Sausage and Egg on the weekends.
However, I am a big fan of enhancing my lame sandwiches with the humble crisp....Nothing quite like; chicken, mayo and sweetcorn with salt and vinegar crisps stuffed inside....0 -

Christmas dinner leftovers with silver skin pickled onions.

Forget the chicken and mayo, and just go for a salt and vinegar crisp sandwich. White bread and plenty of butter (the real stuff mind).--

FRIED EGG on buttered white.

Cheese, ideally strong cheddar in bloke-sized chunks, and onion - big thick clonky bits of onion, enough to keep the wife away for a couple of days. Dose liberally with salt 'n' peppa. Job done. Works best in supermarket cheap and in all other circumstances nasty white bread.0

Peanut butter bovril and cheese or smashed up crisps mixed with salad cream.A feather is kinky, a whole chicken is just perverse.0

Bacon sandwich with the proper brown sauce!
or my misses has a nact of putting together the best chicken lettice and mayonaise sandwich. A perk of life which i just cant recreate!0 -
A favourite concoction of mine, though it looks like sick is the following:
Coarsely grated chedder + big tablespoon of mayo + normal tablespoon of branston pickle + pepper all mixed up into a vomit looking browny heap on a bed of rocket....
Very nice, though it does pin you down to your chair.0 -

First off - gotta be with home baked bread, ideally still warm from the oven, then either:
1: Rare cold roast beef, liberal amount of horseradish and a leftover Yorkshire pudding. Warm up any leftover gravy and drizzle before adding the top.
2: Proper salami, 2 good thick slices, Emmental, cornichons, mild french mustard. Toasted until the cheese melts.
Butter with both 'natch.

1) - I've never agreed with someone so whole-heartedly on the interweb.
2) Not far off what I had for lunch, although not toasted. Was surprisingly disappointed.Road bike FCN 6

That's not a sandwich. That's an art project!0 -
+1 for the Xmas leftovers. Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce. Omnomnom.
I like peanut butter & jam, too (although recently it has been peanut butter & marmalade). Oh, and Encona West Indian hot pepper sauce sandwiches.0 -

Anyone else like peanut butter and apple sarnies?
Turkey and cranberry is good, should be available all year round (for shop sarnies this is, I know they exist all year round if you make them)0 -
Avocado & tomato. Fresh white bread, squeeze of lemon juice, black pepper, yum.0

Hummus and salami go surprisingly well together on toast - I think it's the mixture of healthy and unhealthy that makes it work. At least, it tasted good this morning...0
