What is sports without food? Hell, what is life without delicious snacks, meals, ice creams, meats, cheeses, sauces, tortilla chips, desserts and more? For me, sports and food have always gone hand in hand. I typically prepare a nice feast on FC Dallas match days. Sometimes I’ll go with popular Texas fare like BBQ, Mexican or Cajun, other times I enjoy making popular dishes from the region of FCD’s opponent that week. For example, I’ll make some poutine when we’re in Vancouver, fish tacos vs. the Cali teams, bison burgers vs. Colorado, and so on.

Anyway, back in May of 2014 I made a #PerfectPoboy and live Tweeted the construction of the sandwich. It’s been long enough and it was a useful exercise so I am re-posting all of that content here. Sandwiches are interesting within the culinary world. There is so much room for error when creating a universally desirable product – this goes without saying because we see countless restaurants and quick service companies royally botch the sandwich on a daily basis. I get it, food can be tough, and some of the best dishes require a talented and experienced chef to pull off, but sandwiches are not hard. They just require some effort and care. More than talent and culinary know-how, the two most important factors when delivering a fabulous sandwich are (1) fresh, quality ingredients and (2) thoughtful and balanced construction.
