These sandwiches are made on request, I will not defend this one but i'm told it was delicious.

I hesitate to post my uglier sandwiches but it's not sandwichporn right?

edit: couldn't help defending it 🀣

Why do Americans call both links and patties sausages? They're so different.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Because they're both sausage, in English, with a bit of room for perception.

Historically, not every sausage was in a casing. But every sausage was prepared and seasoned, with preservation being a, if not the main goal

While most sausages across the world will be cased, there's plenty of variants that aren't. Most of those variants tend to be from very rural foodways, where preservation was meant to be short term and flavor a higher priority.

Here in the states, a lot of "country sausages" are ground or minced meats with salt, herbs, and spices not meant for long term keeping because they originated with offcuts. You'd make a pile of pork that wasn't big enough to do anything with for sale or storage by itself, and mince it, throw in your flavorings and cook it the same day or within a week or so if you had an icebox.

Patties come from that background. The "casing" still exists, but it's not edible. It's wrappers, cloths, or other items to shape the lump of processed meat.

Thanks, that makes it make more sense for me.

Regional, what I know "sausage" as is a link/brat and patties are mostly "breakfast sausage"; beyond that it starts to become more specific like chorizo or breakfast sausages (links) etc.

You should put your sword-thingies in all of your sandwiches.

I am not gonna lie, some look so good (except the Walmart falafel one) that it makes me think you stole them from a culinary blog!

You know, like a kind of watermark/signature

I'd take out the mayo and add hot sauce, but otherwise this sounds/looks divine, no need to defend. I just don't like mayo and do like hot sauce lol.

You don't need to defend it. It sounds and looks awesome. Though, to be fair... I'm fuckin' starving rn.

I would have tucked the egg in a little more (or eaten it first as a warm-up) but I would GLADLY eat something like that. It's a big sammich. Sometimes you gotta accept that proportions of what's inside won't allow you to eat without getting your hands dirty, and that's just fine!

ULTIMATE breakfast! Looks absokutely delicious

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This one looks great plus it isn’t a dumpling!

[–] baltakatei@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 weeks ago

Could feed a small village.

If you need a fork and knife to eat it, is it still a sandwich?

[–] cowfodder@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In what world does that require a knife and fork? Wrap tightly in butcher paper, cut in half, then wrap in foil and you have a bodega style breakfast sandwich.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yes; how it is eaten isn't the defining attribute of a sandwich. Open faced roast beef with au jus counts. Monte Cristo counts. Croque Monsieur/Madame counts.

Besides, that bagel sandwich can be eaten by hand. There is no drippy sauce.
