Pork Sandwiches Part 1
Pork sandwiches are a favorite for most people. When you talk about all the different cuts of pork from ham to bacon to pork roast, no wonder this is the case. Whether it's the ever popular BLT (bacon, lettuce, and tomato) sandwich, or the basic ham and swiss on rye, not many can resist these delicious sandwiches. What's your favorite? Pulled Pork, or BBQ Pork for a sandwich? A Cuban, Monte Cristo, hot dog, or sausage sandwich? These sandwiches have one thing in common. They're all made from some type of pork. Many don't consider the cured, processed, or smoked types of pork as being in the same category. But to make things simpler, we will add them all here. These would include bacon, ham, pancetta, or prosciutto. Pork is also usually a main ingredient in hot dogs and sausage, such as the chorizo and salami. You've probably figured this out by now, the better the pork, the better the sandwich or meal. Whatever cut of pork you get, there are a few precautions and rules you need to follow.
