    Sub-club party sandwich

    This is a recipe for an easy to build party Sub Club Sandwich. An absolutely delicious sandwich piled high with your favorite sandwich fixins’ and slathered with a wonderful lemon mayo spread. This is a great sandwich to feed a crowd. Perfect for a tailgating party, or Super Bowl Crowd. And don’t forget those Summer parties. A delicious sandwich after a long afternoon at the pool.

    Best Club Sandwich

    The best thing about this club sandwich isn’t the bacon…it’s the lemony mayonnaise spread that takes it to the next level.

    The club sandwich is one of those All-American diner classics that you can count on being delicious just about anywhere. While it’s usually a double decker affair that includes bacon, I love this “tinkered with” version.

    With no frilly toothpicks, this is built on a loaf of French bread to feed a crowd. We’ll build that sandwich below, but first let’s drink some wine.

    Best Hess Sirah

    Last night we had a 2010 Hess Collection Mount Veeder 19 Block Mountain Cuvee. About $35.

    It’s kind of a Bordeaux blend with a high altitude attitude. It reminded me of several years ago on our first trip to Napa when we visited the Hess winery. Even by Colorado standards it seemed a long way up a winding two lane mountain road. Nestled in the forest, the winery is constructed of stone and seems very old and traditionally European. We bought mostly Petite Sirahs and have repurchased them for years.

    Part of the Donald Hess’ contemporary art collection is housed above the tasting room on the second floor. The most evocative pieces for me were a real vintage typewriter actually on fire by Leopoldo Maier and two huge (probably 8 x 15 foot) “casts” of nondescript pieces of scarred road and cliff sides by the Boyle Family. More on the art can be fond at their museum website.

    What I think is good about this Mountain Cuvee is that it, like the winery itself, seems to exhibit both a traditional and contemporary side.

    Now that we’ve sipped some wine, let’s build that sandwich.

    Party Sub Club Sandwich Recipe

    This is a fun sandwich to build. Just grab your favorite deli meats next time you’re at the store. Pick up a loaf of French Bread or Italian Bread. The lemony mayo spread is really a must to make this sandwich special. Please don’t skip that step.

    I hope you give this unique club sandwich recipe a try, and if you do, please come back and give the recipe a star rating. And leave a message about your experience with the recipe.

    And if you have a favorite “feed a crowd” party sub sandwich recipe, please let me know, I’d love to give it a try.

    Instructions

    • For the mayonnaise spread:
    • In a small mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients. Season with salt and pepper, and stir. Set aside.
    • Build the sandwich.
    • On a clean work surface, arrange the bread pieces, cut-side up.
    • Spread the mayonnaise on both pieces. Place the turkey and ham on the bottom slice of the bread, without letting any of the meat drape over the edges.
    • Place the bacon on top (broken into pieces to fit, if necessary), followed by the lettuce and tomatoes. Top with the other slice of bread. Slice the sub into individual portions.

          I just made that lemony mayo spread but added two cloves of minced garlic and some white pepper. Using it as a dip for some Greek Quesadillas. Thanks for the inspiration!

          Well Look at YOU! Fabulous idea. And thanks for telling me. And wouldn’t it make a great dip for roasted or grilled Veggies? just sayin.

      Oh, gosh, this sounds good! I love the thought of lemony mayo. I just bought a panini press. I’m probably the last person on the planet to try one. We’ve been enjoying grilled sandwiches on it, though I know Bob doesn’t know why a plain old pan isn’t just as handy! I’ll pin this one.

        Barb, I have a panini press that I’ve really not used much. Maybe this Winter. When I didn’t have one, I used my grill pan with a brick covered in foil. Worked great. (Don’t tell Bob) 🙂

      So… I couldn’t sleep last night and I was going through my recipes … Realized I had more sandwich concoctions that anything else. But I have nothing as beautiful and tempting as this.

        I’ve got some older sandwich posts that are in desperate need of a new photo shoot. And goodness, thanks for that compliment. Next time I’m on your site, I’m going to have to search for some of those sandwiches. For me, Summer is sandwich season.
