And I love to eat food that’s really good!
Ok, I’m not tooting my own horn or anything and something I rarely do is tell you what I think of the recipe at the beginning of any post, but this sandwich…I just can’t wait to share it with you!
Yeah.
I really, really think you need this in your life.
Amen. Over and out. Fini.
I mean, just LOOK at this thing, would you?
It’s a soft, delicious, Cobblestone Bread Co. (CBC) Corn Dusted Kaiser roll that sets the stage.
Then making its debut appearance is this oh, so perfect shredded barbecue chicken dressed in a slice of Monterey Jack / Colby cheese, a spoonful (or more if you’d like) of creamy coleslaw and crowned with…get this…homemade onion strings!!
Hunh? What did I tell you? Wait, I do believe I see you drooling. Here, *handing you a napkin* there’s a little to the right of your mouth.
We all know that in order to make a great sandwich, you need to have great ingredients. Actually, it’s that way no matter what dish you’re making, really.
With a sandwich though, you can have the absolute best ingredients for the inside, but if the bread holding it all together doesn’t cut it, then it will be a huge disappointment. Am I right?
Seriously, do you think that these kinds of insides could just go on any kind of bread – a pita or a wrap, perhaps? No way, not happening.
I was excited to use the different CBC breads to see which one would fit best with this sandwich and I’m pleased to say that the Corn Dusted Kaiser Rolls really rocked it!
But…you may not be a Kaiser roll kind of person. That’s ok because Cobblestone Bread Co. has you covered with plenty of other delicious choices and each is perfect for your Game Day sandwiches. That’s right, March Madness is upon us – basketball, basketball, BASKETBALL! Filled out your brackets yet?
What better way to celebrate your favorite team and cheer them on than by having a party with your friends and eating some delicious sandwiches?
That’s why this chicken sandwich is such a winner – you put the ingredients into the slow cooker and in four hours, your chicken is ready to go. Who wants to be working hard on a meal before company comes? Not me! (I always have a house to clean and my brackets to worry about. haha)
If you love using your slow cooker, these Sloppy Joes are a delicious and easy meal to make for any busy weekday.
