Happy New Year! January List sandwiches and December Wrapup
We’ve just completed our first full calendar year at the Tribunal, and things are zinging along. In 2015, we covered 36 sandwiches from The List, and with those posts, random sandwiches we’ve had along the way, and the occasional bookkeeping post like this one, we managed 81 new posts throughout 2015. That’s probably more than I managed on my old website in 10 years so hooray for us!
The downside of it though is that it is a grind, and I feel like people are having a hard time keeping up. This isn’t just my website, it’s our website, whether you’ve written one post here or a dozen, or if you haven’t written one yet at all. We need your voices too, and while I plan to keep the 3-sandwiches-a-month pace going for the time being, I want to make it easier for folks to contribute. I’m thinking about ways to do that, and while I have my ideas, I want to hear yours as well. Please email me, tweet at me, comment here, hit me up on Facebook, whatever is most comfortable or accessible for you to do. This is a group blog and it needs you.
As for December, we put together 1 post each for the three sandwiches from The List and that’s it. They were not necessarily the easiest sandwiches to find or cover–Dynamite may just be a torpedo-shaped sloppy joe, but it’s only available in one corner of the US’s smallest state; you’re not going to find Trinidadian restaurants in too many places to check out their Doubles sandwich; and of course Chinese Donkey Burgers are impossible to find basically anywhere our current writers are living. It was a tough month. Let’s bounce back in 2016! Here are January’s sandwiches:
January of 2016 may seem like a bit of a rerun in certain respects. Dyrlægens natmad is a specific type of Danish Rugbrød–an open face sandwich consisting of buttered bread with one or more toppings. If that sounds familiar, you may be thinking of German Butterbrot that we covered last February. The Elvis sandwich, a griddled peanut butter and banana delight, I previewed last January in my post on Breakfast sandwiches. And speaking of Breakfast sandwiches, that is the most common use of Egg sandwiches, the last of our 3 January entries.
There’s gotta be something new we can say about these sandwiches, but I’ll be damned if I know just what it is at the moment. I know you guys are full of ideas. Please jump in and lay claim to one or more of these sandwiches this month. I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
I like sandwiches.
I like a lot of other things too but sandwiches are pretty great
