Dude....seriously....you need to find some better topics.
And by the way, the correct answer is you need to have a big ol' nasty sub, with one of those soft rolls. Doesn't matter what you put on it, but it needs to be a man's sandwich. What's the name of those big long rolls that are so good? I forget. But that's the best. And you need to have Lay's original potato chips with it. That's a rule or something.
I'm with PhantomGeek. 2 women and me with lots of mayo. If I can't have that then just about any kind will do. Many years ago there was a restaurant in Marina Del Rey CA Called Duffy's 500. They had 500 sandwiches on their menu. I never tried it but they offered a goose liver and jelly sandwich.
I like the Pit Master at Smokin Daves. It is sausage, briscit, and pulled pork in the same sandwich, piled so high you can't close the bun. Delicious with sweet potato fries, cole slaw and a pear Cider
From my childhood. Two thick slices of my Mom's fresh baked bread slathered with sweet fresh churned butter from the morning's cream. Thick slices of tomato just off the vine still warm from the sun. Salt and pepper.
Love a Reuben. Love a BLT. Love me a Po'Boy. Can't forget a Cuban or any number of Torta's. But the best sammich I've had was on vacation at my uncle's estancia in Argentina. Fresh baked bread and homemade sausage-everything fresh from the ranch. Add a little vino from Mendoza and I was in heaven.
Argentina. My great-uncle Chín passed away and my great-uncle José turned 90 so I went with my Tía Floríta to a memorial and kick ass birthday party. Good times. Winter is Summer south of the equator so it was warm.
No argument about the joys of bread and butter together. Also no argument about the joy of real home-made mayo.
I make bread in my own kitchen but I do not possess my Mom's skill. I have also tried to churn my own butter. Again, my Mom's skill surpasses mine. I do make a wicked mayo. And, I grow even tastier tomatoes than my Mom produced in her garden.
I enjoy a Reuben but the simple tomato sandwich of my childhood remains my favourite.
Tomato sandwiches must be a Canadian thing. Many years ago I spent a week on a farm outside of Brantford, Ontario. My host, a naturalized U.S, citizen, picked a bunch of tomatoes out of his mothers garden and that is what we had for lunch. I like tomatoes but I treat them like a condiment in a sandwich.

OH NO YOU DI'INT !!!!!
These days I have to get it deconstructed to accommodate my gluten intolerance.
I often eat at a Greek Gyros stand - they have a Reuben on the menu (not sure why) - but they use "light" rye bread. It's good but not the same.
Fave sandwiches:
+ Cuban Sandwich
+ Pork Sandwich (Cuban style pork)

Should have made the topic, What's your favorite sandwich, in general?" I can
Best sandwiches of my life.
As for the sandwiches, a local truckstop has probably the best burgers I've had, especially their chili cheeseburger.
Add a bit of real mayo, and your sandwich would be almost as good as a Reuben. :)
