One day I was hungry and misspelled Chief Delphi as Chief Deli. But ever since then I thought it would be a good off-season brain-teaser to name sandwiches/meals you would find at a deli/fast food joint after people that frequent the forums.
So, the rules:
You may NOT name a sandwich after yourself. That defeats the purpose.
You may name anyone other than yourself on the forums, and the description of the sandwich/meal should be a play on their name/personality/team, etc.
After you fulfill the above requirements, feel free to garnish it any way you please. As in the below example (The “Dr Joe”), chips & a pickle have nothing to do with him, but are a likely complement to the sandwich.
I’ll start:
The “Dr Joe”: Johnsonville Bratwurst on a bun, with chips and a pickle.
I think I’ll take a whack at a different Jason Morrella sandwich…
Saline, Glucose, some Electrolytes… all wrapped in a plastic bag, and served intravenously. I hear the 2001 vintage from southern California is the best ;). The cost of this gourmet meal is the approximate cost of an ambulance ride and an English lesson.
“The JVN” - The world’s most popular sandwich. Two plain slices of dry white toast with nothing in between. Very big in Chicago, where it is ordered along with four fried chickens and a Coke. Often imitated, never duplicated - the original is still the best. Try a JVN today - you’ll like it, and you’ll have no idea why!
The Jess Boucher -
A happy little peanut butter and jelly sandwich (about half the size of the Brandon Martus). Comes with a small POP and a side of curly fries.
The Ricky Quinones -
A cheddar sandwich with monterey jack, provolone, swiss, american, muenster, colby, and gouda, topped with jumping beans, with a side of string cheese.
The Elgin Clock -
A regular old grilled cheese that is guaranteed to fall apart.
The Ken Leung -
A regular ham sandwich with all the fixin’s… until you fall asleep on your plate.
The Travis Hoffman -
A philly cheese steak sandwich… but halfway through, you lose that eatin’ feeling.
The Brandon Marcus- A chicken finger BLT where the rest of the components are very mysterious. What’s the sauce? What’s that roll? Who knows. Only the infamous Brandon Marcus…
And let’s not forget the “Jessica Boucher”: chocolate chip cookies
I think it would be funny if someone set up a “Chief Deli” at Nats and you ordered what you wanted by using people’s names. You would have to know more combinations than a bartender has to for drinks!
