I Like em’ BIG.
I was in one of my favorite towns this past week: Annapolis, MD. And whenever I’m in Annapolis, I make it a point to stop by Chick & Ruth’s Delly for a sandwich and plate of fried potatoes.
There are literally dozens and dozens of sandwiches to order at Chick & Ruth’s – most of them named after politicians and their favorite sandwich. As I combed thru all of the sandwich options, I noticed that there aren’t too many sandwiches of the Turkey variety, which says a lot about our politicians, right? So right as I was about to order a Hot Dog, I noticed that they have a category of sandwiches called “Colossals”. From there I knew that I was going for it. I was going to order the biggest Turkey Sandwich I have ever had.
Being the Turkey Sandwich hot shot that I am, I ordered off of the menu and went with a Turkey/Pastrami with Swiss. Bread choice: Rye.
The amazing thing about this Turkey Sandwich is that is was just as good cold (4 hours later) as it was hot. The chees has coagulated a little and the Rye bread was a little soggy, but it was delicious in a completely different way.
And to answer the question all of you smart asses out there are asking: NO, I did not eat the whole thing. But you can expect this sandwich to be making an appearance in the Turkey Top 10.
Memo to All of You Smart Asses: Yes, I DO Occasionally Order a Salad
From time to time, we get some rather rude messages here at Turkey Sandwich HQ. Things like:
“Yo fat ass, why don’t you mix in a salad once in a while?”
or
“Hey Fat Sajak, give the Turkey Sandwiches a rest and try some celery sticks!”
Ok, listen here smart asses:
- I DO order salads occasionally.
- I’m a big fan of salads.
- I absolutely love Taco Salads and I love me a good Chicken Caesar on a pretty frequent basis.
- All of you that have made comments like this are a bunch of assholes.
I apologize to all of the innocent bystanders that had to be exposed to this. Like most things, leave it to a few rotten apples to ruin it for the rest of us. I promise they will not ruin the fun we’re having here at the Turkey Sandwich Report.
I actually ordered a side salad with my Turkey Cuban Sandwich today at Heroes Pub in Annapolis, MD. The Turkey Cuban was awesome (especially when I threw a little Old Bay seasoning on there) and the side salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette was the perfect compliment. Throw in a beer and I had myself one hell of a lunch.
Just an Old Fashioned Turkey Sandwich
I had the distinct pleasure of dining at a national treasure today: Chick and Ruth’s in Annapolis, MD.
Yes, the chocolate chip waffles looked scrumptious. Yes, the sausage looked savory. And yes the pancakes looked fantastic.
But I did my Turkey Sandwich Report duty, and ordered a Turkey Sandwich, the Turkey Club actually.
It may not look like much, but it was good. No messing around. Just a straight Turkey Sandwich on toasted wheat bread.
Now you might have noticed those potatoes on the side. Let me tell you something about those potatoes: They were fucking amazing. I could have eaten a 55 lb drum of those.
If you’re ever in Annapolis, make a special effort to stop by Chick and Ruth’s. The owner might even come by and do stupid magic trick for you. And tell ‘em Lutz sent you.
