My friends Angela and Sean hosted a small gathering Sunday afternoon to celebrate an a match made in culinary heaven: grilled sandwiches and beer. They gathered an impressive array of meats, cheeses, mustards, and more, and were ready with some fantastic combinations. More photos and combos after the jump
Angela made the first batch of sandwiches. They included ham, Swiss cheese, thin-sliced Roma tomatoes, and mustard. The secret ingredient? A light spread of cinnamon applesauce on each slice of bread.
They were the perfect match with a Belgian wheat beer.
Sean made the next two varieties. The first had thin-sliced granny apples, red onion, bacon, and cheddar sandwich with mustard.
Sean assembles the magic:
The final was a dessert sandwich of brie, granny smith apples, and cranberry pepper jelly. I don’t have a photo of the final sandwich, but I do have one of a lot of slow-cooked bacon. Mmmm.
In short, grilled sandwiches + beer + Sunday afternoon = WIN.
