  1. Video almost over and I'm thinking, "Would it be wrong of me to add a pickle?" Brian adds a pickle. Ha! I knew it.

  2. Club sandwiches are my go to. I actually frequent a truck stop that makes a decent from scratch club sandwich.

  3. I was the Club King at Harrah's Tahoe in the late 80s. While doing broiler station all the power would go out as a saftey feature when lighting storms happened. I would run down to the Pantry where I started and crank out 5 clubs at once. One loaf of white brad made that number. Always put bacon on the bottom and cut with a very sharp french knife

  4. The Turkey Clube is how I judge most diners. The first time I visit I will order one and if it is anything less than good I won't be ordering anything else or coming back.

  5. The turkey club is my go-to comfort food. Good day? Turkey club. Bad day? Turkey club. End of a long hiking trip? Turkey club. After a long night shift? Gonna want a turkey club (ideally with steak cut fries and ginger ale). Whenever we move (military family) I must seek out the new, best, turkey club in town. I sent a link to this video and warned my wife that a new cooking obsession was about to be triggered.

  6. "I'm using a pretty thin sliced bacon"; The bacon package: "Thick Sliced." Package marketing is such a load of BS lol.

  7. I respect innovation, but I want my clubs to taste like the corner sub shop, and they aren't going all out on these. Anything elaborate takes me away from that classic taste.

    As such, use cheap sandwich bread. It's $1.29, and square like a Pullman loaf. It's perfect for cutting into uniform quarters, and I love a club cut into quarters. Lightly toast.

    For mayo, use a good vinegar-based one. In the northeast, Cains is my go-to. Kewpie is just about identical in flavor and a good alternative. You'll be placing some on ever internal bread surface.

    Different places use different layer arrangements. Where I live the meat is packed on one, so it will be 6-8oz of turkey, then tomato, then lettuce…then bread…then bacon, tomato, and lettuce, and the top (it makes it clear your having a turkey sandwich-BLT hybrid).

    All that's left is to put a toothpick a couple centimeters up on every side, cut corner to corner, then corner to corner again giving you 4 triangles. Arrange them cut side up on the plate for presentation (great for the classic feel) and dump some fries in the middle.

  8. This dude doesn't mess around! My mouth is watering. I need to make this sandwich!

  9. This looks delish! Will for sure Make for the Fam when boating!!!! When will we see you two????

  10. Dude I love your videos and it has inspire me to create my own channel … I don’t think I can be anywhere as successful as yours but here goes nothing

  11. Can people find turkey like this in grocery stores outside of the Fall season? I always look and I'm never able to find it anywhere.

  12. I am very much team sandwich and team green/red leaf lettuce!! Loved this video even though I hate eggs lol ????

  13. Know what the best thing about any kind of turkey? No matter what you do to it, it's still boring bland turkey. I worked at a spot where we brinded it in a citrus brine and then smoked it. It was good, I guess, but it could have been literally anything else and it would have been better.

  14. I learn from every video here but Brian's sandwich recipes are the source of so much knowledge. Roasted turkey breast? Homemade sandwich bread? A new spread for that sandwich? It's at least three videos in one. Cheers.

  15. This was my favorite episode ever. I'm not sure why. Could be because I was eating a great meal here while watching or that I learned so much this time. I don't know man but this was gold to me.

  16. That’s a winner Brian, chips and pickles complete the sandwich!!….looks outstanding!????????????????????????????????????

  17. I have been trying to make deli style turkey breast for years but just cant seem to get that moist texture right. Closest ive gotten was 3 day dry brine and then on the smoker (cherry wood). Amazing taste but still a bit dry. Will try your recipe exactly and see how it goes.

  18. I really need to know; why boiled egg yolk? would it really not work if it was cooked yolks another way? Or if you separated the eggs first and poached the yolk solid?

  19. Fantastic, I just need to hire you to come on over and make the sandwich for me! ????????
