    I’ve always been a McDonald’s apologist here. I think for the sheer amount of food they turn out at such a fast pace, that the quality is better than its given credit for. 

    Its more than edible.

    It's my road trip staple...

    Egg McMuffin for Brkfst... McDouble any other time... both very travel friendly at 80 mph give or take...

    A McDouble w/ cheese is literally the perfect road sandwich and quite delicious to me.

    I recently (without thinking) ordered a double cheeseburger at the drive up. When I pulled up to pay & questioned the price, I was told I should have ordered a McDouble (for 40 or 50 cents less)! The difference in the sandwiches?...ONE slice of cheese.  🙄

    It’s called a double cheeseburger here and is always what I order, easily their best option.

    All this talk of small burgers from McDonald's has me hungry for some Hamburger Station burgers... It's too bad there isn't many of them around anymore. (Akron area)

    Never heard of it. Sure gets good reviews though, sort of a higher quality White Castle?

    Ah, the descendent of Thacker's Hamburgers on E Market St in East Akron near where I lived when I was young. At Goodyear shift change time you couldn't get in the door. I haven't yet been to Hamburger Station, but I hear they're just like the old Thacker's.

    Yes and McDonald's finally did what America has been clamoring for for decades.....a reality TV star as president,  no make that all day breakfast food!

    When the wife is out running errands on the way home she'll occasionally stop,  I like Sausage McMuffin with egg, hash browns and large coffee, when you're just too lazy to cook, oh yeah!  🙂

    Oh we finally tried our local Jersey Mike's  Sandwich store, 1.6 miles from our house, small store front.

    I had the Philly Steak  $7.55 half, not bad nice amount of meat, got a Pastrami Reuben for tomorrow. 

    Wife had the Caesar Chicken Wrap $7.75 I thought it was quite tasty.  I guess it would be mjp GAMEDAY approved. 🙂

    Wife had the #8 Club Sub $7.95 - turkey,  ham, provolone, bacon plus fixins minus lettuce, I had two bites, fabulous. Better than Jimmy Johns!

    Penn Station is pretty good for a chain sub.

    Just found out were having company Friday and Saturday and my wife has an anniversary party to go to with her mother Sunday 

    FOOTBALL WEEK starting for me tonight! Looks like Jersey Mike's freebies for me a possibility or steaks on the grill Sunday.  Not bad.

    Just tried something new yesterday and finished it today watching Kluber now 9-2 and the INDIANS,  we had a gift card for the OUTBACK STEAK HOUSE.

    Well we got the usual, bloomin' petals, Caesar salad, wife had the streak tacos (very good!) but it was before 4 pm so instead of prime rib and all the fixins I got:

    Steakhouse Philly*
    Ribeye steak sliced thin with our steakhouse cheese sauce, grilled onions and red peppers then smothered with melted White Cheddar cheese on a sub roll   $12.49
    Not super cheap or large but it was quite tasty with some really good hot fresh fries on the side.
    Not my favorite all time Philly Steak which is from the local Longhorn Steakhouse for $12.95 but not bad.
    ........oh BTW I just saw the calorie and other info on the steakhouse Philly
    Steakhouse Philly Sandwich  CALORIES  1030.....I had it as two halves, still good!..... other stuff  550 61 33 0 210 54...... SODIUM  2050, WHOA, GOOD THING I RUN A LOW SODIUM. .... 4 9 68

    Did you ever make the Italian beef sandwiches mjp? 

    I think I'm losing my clout on our menu selections with the wife. 😕

    She went all casserole and oven dishes crazy the last few months (great food and leftovers)....oh I ran across an easy slow cooker Italian beef sandwich recipe and sent you a copy to an old email address I had for you the 1948 one, 10 minutes prep time, 10 hours cook time did you get it? Wife liked it way simpler than the traditional Italian beef recipe.

    Philly Steak and other Steak sandwiches are one of my favorites going back to my Tony's Hideaway steak sandwich  days at YSU if any of you guys remember that in the same building as the Bavarian House and above The Tomb.....all long gone now.

    If any of you are interested here is the slow cooker recipe, I've never done it. A traditional Italian Beef Sandwiches recipe is in an earlier post in this thread....I have done that many years back, a different flavor than just a regular and easy to make Philly Steak sandwich. 

    Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches
    Prep Time 10 mins  Cook Time 10 hrs..... Total Time 10 hrs 10 mins
     
    Load up on the delicious flavor of these Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches! A handful of ingredients are all you need to pull this amazing dinner off. Great for game day or an easy weeknight dinner!
    Course: Entree
    Servings: 10 sandwiches
    Author: Trish - Mom On Timeout
    Ingredients
    • 4 lb boneless beef chuck pot roast
    • 2 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp pepper
    • 1 tsp garlic powder
    • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
    • 1 15 oz can tomato sauce
    • 2 green bell peppers, sliced
    • 2 yellow onions, sliced
    • 1 12 oz jar sliced pepperoncini (plus more for serving)
    • 10 crusty sandwich rolls, split and toasted
    • 20 slices Provolone cheese
    • Instructions (note this didn't copy and paste evenly but there are 13 steps in the instructions)
      1. Spray the insert of a 6 or 7 qt slow cooker with cooking spray.
      1. Drain the pepperoncinis reserving three tablespoons of the liquid.
      2. Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in small bowl.
      3. Trim the fat from the roast and season each side with roughly one-third of the seasonings.
      4. Place the roast in the slow cooker.
      5. Pour the tomato sauce over the roast.
      6. Top with the green bell peppers, onions, and pepperoncinis.
      7. Sprinkle the remaining third of the seasonings on top as well as the reserved pepperoncini liquid.
      8. Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.
      9. Preheat oven to 250F.
      10. Use two forks to shred the meat. It should be so tender that it basically just falls apart.
      11. Using a pair of tongs or a slotted spoon, place the shredded beef mixture along with onions and peppers on the bottom half of the rolls. Make sure you let most of the liquid drain away so your sandwiches don't get soggy.
      12. Top the shredded beef mixture with additional pepperoncinis if desired, and two (or more) slices of Provolone cheese. Place in oven just until cheese melts. Serve immediately.
