I am inspired every day by @gringalicious, and when it comes to food photos, intimidated. However, I thought I'd share with you one of my favorite sandwich creations.
Even though my photography does not hold a candle to her photography, I have fun nonetheless
Also, I've been seeing the weekly Steemit Sandwich contests being held by @jaybird, how could you not be inspired by that?!
My ingredients, above we have Dave's Killer Seed Bread. There's a whole story behind 'Dave,' the owner of Dave's Seed Bread, that's for another post. Secondly, we have some grade A uncured pastrami. It's incredibly tender and full of flavor.
And the supporting line up is some Hivarti cheese, incredibly creamy and smooth, onion and last but not least, garlic.
First step is to dice up the onion and mince the garlic. Place both ingredients into your skillet along with some butter.
Next step is to butter the outside of the bread. Very important to get the butter out to the edges. You want every bite to be buttery good.
Push your sautéed onion and garlic off to the side and place your buttered bread face down into the skillet.
Let's go ahead and get some cheese on that bread so it can start melting. I like to make sure every square millimeter of bread is covered with cheese, and it doesn't hurt my feelings if some hangs over.
No need to be shy with the cheese
Next step is to add that amazingly tender pastrami, again, don't be shy!
Now's the time to add that sautéed yummy onion and garlic, did I mention yummy?
Now lets' marry both parts of the sandwiches together
Give it enough time to brown and crisp up to your liking, I happen to like it crispy.
I like to cut this sandwich in half. It allows me to savor the sandwich even the more, feels like I'm eating two sandwiches instead of one.
And last but not least, I like to dip my sandwich in this amazing sweet hot mustard by Beaver.
Serve with your beverage of choice, I tend to like a nice red.
I hope you enjoyed this and most importantly, I hope it inspires you to create your own sandwich!!
Grilled cheese is always nice!

Jeez @gringalicious watch out you have competition! ;) @noboxes grilled cheese with hot Pastrami sandwich gets straight to the point with the step by step details and photos hahaha
Btw, did you eat the second half of the sandwich before taking the photo?
Also, we love the 'unnecessary' few bits of Spinach added on the plate.... there is no place for greens when it comes to grilled meat and cheese sandwiches :p hahahaha love this post!

I actually made two sandwiches at the same time. I gave 1/2 to @rigaronib, 1/2 to @fullofhope, 1/2 to @mamaloves and saved a 1/2 for myself. I had some influence on those greens, I can't take credit for it, LOL. Thanks so much for the awesome commenting @travelling-two

Nice colour on the bread. I usually toast mine using a pan on the stove too. Stopped using the toaster because by the time the bread is this charred, it'll be dried or worst, completely burnt. Great combination of ingredients! Who doesn't love cheese and meat between two slices of crusty bread? This looks absolutely yums!

Very nice! I wouldn't even try to compare to Gringa's photos and blog. But if you start you your own style and theme. I'm sure you'll find an audience of you own. I've not got some people asking what I'm cooking next out of hotel room! lol
Wishing you and your family the very best! -Dan
