Des Moines’ Juice Magazine is conducting a “Sandwich smackdown” to determine the best of 16 different sandwiches. Our Dad’s Killer Sandwich was chosen as one of the 16. Here’s a portion of Joe Lawler’s review of our Dad’s Killer Sandwich
Sometimes when a sandwich is big, it gets a clever name to tip off/scare away potential diners. “Monster burger,” “big boy,” stuff like that. And sometimes a sandwich name seems like more of challenge, or a warning. Sort of a culinary “Abandon all hope ye who enter here.”
Like Dad’s Killer Sandwich at B&B. Is the name letting us know that it’s a great sandwich, or that dads should update their life insurance policy? Thankfully, the thing most likely to be wiped out is your appetite. Dad’s Killer Sandwich is a massive hoagie filled with roast beef, turkey, smoked ham and corned beef. Oh, and pepper cheese, sweet cheese and American cheese. Plus lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, mustard, Miracle Whip and Tuscan Italian dressing.
