Mine is actually quite simple. I prefer toasted parmesan bread with one or two slices of thick grilled ham topped with melted mozarella cheese and lettuce. Nothing else except maybe sprinkle some pepper and/or other spices.

it depends on me. If i want a cold sandwich, i'll go for tuna w/ tomatoes, pickles, some mustard, salt-and-pepper.

Shaved (or very thinly sliced) corned beef, hot, on Pumpernickel with mustard. Sometimes I'll get swiss cheese, sometimes not.

Why would you go for nasty corned beef when you could go for steak?

Mine: A baton (foot long baguette), buttered with garlic butter, then salad (Lettuce, onion, green,yellow and red pepper) onion, ghekins, loads of jalapinos (sp?), then very thinly sliced hot steak, finally with a suce of choice, possibly mayo or thousand island.

Not That is a proper sarnie.


Corned beef.... jeez...

If it's on some kind of artisan bread it's NOT a deli sandwich.

I prefer the split decision - hot corned beef AND pastrami on rye. With cheese. I don't care if it's a special, a reuben, or just mustard.
If you live near Edison, NJ, you should stop by Harold's NY Deli. It's amazing.

I also like Monte Cristo. Especially the deep-fried one at Bennigan's.

A good sandwich is a good sandwich I don't think anyone cares if its considered an "official" deli sandwich or not.

Almost everyday I make myself a sandwich consisting of bologna, ham, turkey, colby-jack cheese and spicey mustard on a which bun. Tastes great and filling...less than 500 calories.

They do when the thread title says "Best kind of deli sandwich ingredients?"

If I want a deli sandwich, I go to a deli. Rye bread or crusty rolls, basic meats, lettuce, tomato, onion, peppers, basic cheeses, mayo, mustard, or olive oil.

If I want raspberry ham with fresh mozzarella, arugala and pesto mayonnaise on asiago ciabatta bread, I go to an arsty (and usually overpriced) sandwich joint.

Yup... but I don't like sauerkraut. :)

But...along those lines... I do like a "Dinty Moore" (at least thats what they call it at the sandwhich shop I frequent).

It's a Reuben but with cole slaw instead of sauerkraut.

You have to understand such differentiation is native to the NY/NJ area, and the sandwiches are crappy anyway :)

You are probably right about that! Where I live there is a deli or pizza shop on every corner. :D

.

hmm to be honest when someone says a deli sandwich i think of thin sliced meat and cheese.

i don't care if itsa official sandwich or not. i will throw diffrent meats and cheese on diffrent bread to see what i like. pretty much anything makes me happy heh. well some of the "california style" i wouldnt touch.
