I nominate Mettbrötchen, a popular German snack consisting of a bread roll (Brötchen) topped with raw minced pork, known as Mett. The meat is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes onions or garlic. It is often garnished with finely chopped raw onions and served open-faced:

Of course, if you put the two halves together, you get a sandwich:

And in this form it’s usually sold when you get it on the go. A great, protein-rich breakfast item, or the ideal afternoon snack to bridge the time between lunch and dinner! :transmet_smiley:

Raw minced pork you say?

Btw thanks for including a pic. When I do the tourney I plan to find the most appetizing photo of each sandwich. So for anyone nominating, if you want to give your sandwich the best chance, add a mouthwatering pic.

Yes, raw minced pork.

The open-faced pictures are better obviously, but does it qualify as sandwich in this form?

Saw that this existed. Not sure if helpful, but maybe for initial seeding?

Yes!

Perfect. I’ll use that then randomize within the tiers.

Oh yeah, I’m adding BBQ Brisket sandwich (can have onion rings and some variations even have cheese).

Nashville/spicy chicken should probably have it’s own category aside from fried chicken

If open faced sammys qualify avocado toast has to be in there

I’ll allow avocado toast. Just trying to keep the burgers, dogs, and sausages out. I feel like those should be their own competition.

Tortas in C-tier would probably launch some lawnmowers into space.

Although for Mexican sandwiches, cemitas (from Puebla)

or tortas ahogadas (from Jalisco) would get my vote

Hand pie:

Sausage roll:

Edited to add: Don’t at me about a sausage roll being some kind of hot dog, that’s bullshit. The best sausage rolls don’t use sausage in a casing. These are legit sandwiches and should be treated accordingly!

Czech Republic is totally lacking in sandwiches. I mean we have chlebíčky but they’re just open faced “sandwiches” that are more like New Year’s Eve appetizers than an actual sandwich.

I wanted to nominate pljeskavica but unfortunately it’s too close to a burger to qualify imo. Cevapi u tortilji is good too but I don’t know if we’re counting things wrapped in tortillas.

Torta is on the original 40. Cemita absolutely belongs, and according the the residents of Puebla, a cemita is NOT a torta.

See the back cover of my book for a cemita in the process of being devoured and me attempting to make a DAYUM face.
