The sandwich that eats like a meal

Try a potato bun sometime. It’s soft and white, but not god-awful-American soft and white, if you know what I mean. The texture inside (crumb) works really well to soak in the sauce just enough but not too much.

Like the wonderful Martin’s Potato Rolls!
Or if you want to double-down on the sweet/savory mix of a sloppy joe, try it on a Hawaiian Roll.

First I was going to argue against that, but looking for a picture to bring this ad absurdum, I found only this:

And now I’m in agreement: If instead of bacon and beef, there were only 4 pieces of chicken stacked, I don’t believe I would feel comfortable calling that a hamburger, if i’m totally honest.

The title of this thread made me think of a Death Bed sequel.

Gouda? Really? It seemed to me just another yellow hard-ish cheese, somewhat bland, perhaps. See Appenzeller, Cheddar from Cheddar, Manchego, I could go on. I guess us Yurpeens’ reputation for being spoiled and jaded is well deserved. I should give it another go.

Gouda’s interesting stuff, because young gouda is just a basic, simple yellow cheese. But aged gouda is easily one of my favorite cheeses – its flavor deepens, becomes sweeter and sharper, and it develops little crunchy crystals inside. A good aged gouda is a flavor explosion.

Cheddar, another cheese slated above as bland, has a similar flourishing with age.

(Also, cheddar’s really more white than yellow.)

Now I’m hungry for loose meat on King’s Hawaiian.
