    can’t tell if this is a shitpost, or in support of the deranged rant yesterday.

    A+

    I’ll never forget being on the sandwich station at a previous job and getting 15 of these motherfuckers on one ticket. Every single one had at least 2 modifications, and I was thankfully able to get the salad guy to run over and help.

    Lemme ask you a question. How do we feel about frilly toothpicks?

    “And in the middle we shall dump CHIPS!”

    There’s a place we frequent for work lunches that makes the best, they roast turkeys every day for the following days club houses.

    With cheese on white. My god are they good.

    Delicious, just had breakfast now I’m hungry again!

    But….. Are those chippies next to that line cooks nightmare? I’m insane enough to eat them with a mince pie (not the fruit kind) but a club sandwich? I always thought a club was a full meal all in itself.

    Fuck I love a good club sandwich. Hand it over!

  9. This very popular and very mid restaurant near me doesnt even add the extra slice of bread and its supposed to be a diner. Fuck you no frill bar and grill. I will happily name and shame that place for the travesty of a club sandwich they served me.

  10. Inside of me are two wolves: one who had to prepare a hundred club sandwiches a shift and hates them, and the other who still loves eating club sandwiches. I feed both of them. They’re getting enormous. They’re going to burst out of my chest any minute.

  11. Love clubs. Sorry to those working in diners, I did my years in them, but I always get clubs.

    Hated making these at a busy lunch place. Huge pain in the ass. Even worse if you offer a choice of bread.

  13. I like to order these for lunch for my team. I order 16 of them at exactly 12:08 pm

  14. “You’re telling me I gotta toast some bread and then assemble the shit?”

    Yo shout out club sandwich man from yesterday

  16. bigwinterblowout

    Surprising lack of avocado on that club

  17. SexyWampa

    Well, I know what I’m ordering for dinner, 😈

  18. TheClownKid

    Almost got tricked into thinking this was sincere. Solid work OP.

  19. A_Sketchy_Doctor

    Knock it off with all these club sandwich posts. Gonna have me ruining someone’s day when I go get two

    Clubs take 30 seconds. SIngle clubs (no club) suck but are doable. Single clubs cut into four are garbage.

  21. LuckyTrashcan

    I will die on the hill that the club sandwich is the best order to get a feel for a restaurant. If they can’t be damned to assemble some meat and bread properly that’s an issue.

  22. usual_chef_1

    Hate to make them, but love to eat them. Classic for a reason.

  23. HndsDwnThBest

    Your worst nightmare is a fucking SANDWICH!!!? This has to be satire. I sincerely hope so, or I have words. Much more words for you.

  24. might make a club tonight. It’s gotten under my skin and I want one now

  25. Caprice42

    Lmfao!! I just started at a diner with clubs that fall apart without expert precision.

  26. Rasty1973

    Most clubs I’ve made were around 150 for a group of 300 ladies. Only used green frill picks just to accentuate the OCD.

  27. When my family owned a restaurant I fucking hated making Club Sandwiches. Plus a good portion of our sales were carry out so these dumb fucking things with the toothpicks sticking out of the styro containers. Fuck them.

    I eventually had my Dad take them off the menu. All those office bitches had to find something else. Lol

  28. Can I get it cut into eight pieces please? With a side of carbonara. But I don’t like pepper and I am deathly allergic to eggs!

    Can you arrange the eight mini sandwiches onto a ramp of some sorts? Maybe some kind of staircase? I am also very allergic to non-elevated foods. (Flat foods give me hives)

  29. burgonies

    Can we get a Sandwich Artist in here to help us get out of the weeds?!

  30. MarkyGalore

    like a cobb salad no two people order a club sandwich the same way.

  31. Issac-Cox-Daley

    I have to make the food on the menu?

    I was senior EC at a high end retirement home. Of course, that clientele loved club sandwiches. But they couldn’t open their mouth wide enough to eat a proper one, much finish the whole (1/2) sandwich.

    Our solution was to make a tomato bacon jam and get the absolute thinnest sliced bread we could from GFS but we still sold so many it was a pain during service but not predictable enough that we could par make them and hold them (like we did at TGI Friday’s). So then i made it a wrap option and it cut down on the amount of toast we had to make and we were able to route it to garde manger.

    Amd clubs ceased to be a mother fucker lol

  33. pennynotrcutt

    I love club sandwiches but I always ask for one without the extra slice in the middle. I’m sorry, forgive me. They’re fucking delicious.

  34. But they’re sooo fancy! Did you see the toothpick? Who doesn’t like a turkey sandwich with extra steps?!

  35. Significant_Gas_3868

    Can someone please tell me if I’m being an asshole or not when I order a club sandwich? They are the best.
