How to make a Ham Bomb

[shin]

Ingredients: 4 slices white bread, 6 slices American cheese, 4 slices square ham, butter/margarine.



Create two sandwiches in a large skillet on the stove/grill. Each is to be 2 slices ham and 2 slices cheese. Butter only one side of the bread, the side with the ham. The ham is to go on the outside for better gripping traction.



Begin to grill the sandwiches, plain/cheese side down and butter/ham side up.



When the unbuttered side begins to look like this, flip the sandwiches around, butter/ham side down.



Apply the two last slices of cheese, one on each grilled plain bread in the same location to act as "cheese glue" to hold both sandwiches together.



Cover to ensure the cheese glue melts. Keep an eye on the buttered sides to make sure they don't burn.



When the buttered side looks like this, combine both sandwiches. The glue cheese should be on opposite sides of each other and overlap in the middle. Reapply cover until cheese glue is completely melted.

There's no way you're not hungry for a Ham Bomb right now.

Shouldn't that be called a "Cholesterol Bomb" instead !!

Haha, I was waiting for Phil to catch a glimpse of the Ham Bomb.

I can't imagine eating one of those things right now. I ate and drank so goddamn much this weekend, I feel like going veggie for a few days, running my ass off and just cleaning myself out.

As far as huge sandwiches go, though, I've been on this huge muffelata kick lately. Mmm.

[Rit]

i had something similar to the Ham Bomb just now.. lots of feta cheese, cream cheese on a sausage and bun sandwich.

[luke]

That sounds pretty good.

Anyone here ever actually eat the Eggnormous Omelet Sandwich at Burger King? Or the Meatnormous Omelet Sandwich? Those things are 70g of fat and 800 calories of pure brilliance.

[Rit]

yuck. the Cheese bomb tastes like a ton of grease now that it's settling into my gonads.

[luke]

In high school, I once ate an entire cheese log when I was stoned. Ate it like a Three Musketeers bar. It was delicious. Afterward, this girl used to always give me a cheese log for my birthday.

That thing you made, rit, it sounds...different. I'd eat it, though.

But not right now. I still feel full of wine and turducken and rice and salad and creole potato salad. It was huge.

[Rit]

it's a pleasure and a pain. i'm burping like there's no tomorrw at the moment.

[phil]

Turducken ... ??

Is that Turkey + Duck + Chicken ... ??

[rockkid]

That looks outright putrid.

LoLing at the “Canadian White” though, the things they market you guys.

[rockysigman]

I thought turducken was just a myth.

[luke]

It's a chicken inside a duck inside a turkey. You debone them and put them inside each other. Each bird is seperated by a light layer of sausage and stuffing. It's absolutely delicious.

[phil]

Have you ever tried stuffing the chicken with cheese ... ??

[luke]

That sounds incredible. Elaborate.

[shin]

I'll elaborate for Phil:

Take chicken. Stuff with cheese.
