The America Sandwich image

All true patriots love this thick, tender meat sandwich. For anyone who loves meat and America. This is a serious recipe my great great grandfather William Abersworth created while exploring the California coast in the late 1800's. Best served with a side of curly fries.

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound bacon
4 (1 pound) loaves sourdough bread
8 ounces processed cheese, sliced
1 pound sliced cooked roast beef
1 pound sliced smoked ham
8 ounces sliced American cheese
2 sticks butter, sliced
1 cup Dijon mustard
1 cup mayonnaise
4 cups canned gravy, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Cut a slit down the center of a loaf of bread, and use a spoon to scoop out the interior, leaving a pocket in the loaf. Line the pocket with 2 slices of processed cheese food. Divide the cooked bacon slices in 4, and stuff each bread loaf with 1/4 of the bacon.
  • Place sliced roast beef and ham onto microwave-safe plates, and top slices with a pat of butter. Cook in microwave oven set on High until the butter has melted, about 30 seconds. Lightly stuff each loaf with 1/4 of the buttered meat slices. Top with sliced American cheese, and stuff a couple of pats of butter into the top of each loaf.
  • Use remaining butter to spread over the outside of each loaf. Generously drizzle dollops of Dijon mustard and mayonnaise over the top of the stuffing.
  • Place loaves on a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until the bread is toasted and the filling is hot and melted, about 30 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning bread.
  • Heat the gravy to a simmer over low heat; remove sandwiches from oven, slice into serving portions, and top each serving with a generous helping of hot gravy.

This sandwich was easy to make and it tasted great. I used sourdough bread and it was the perfect choice. The cheese was melted and gooey and the meat was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this sandwich again.
