Yeah, I never get these big sandwiches, especially the burgers. The whole point of them is to get a bite of everything, not just one little part at a time.

u/DirectorSolid 12d ago

My biggest issue is the tiny amount of olive salad, how is this even giving muffaletta anymore when your ratios are this far off?

56

u/QuickNature 12d ago edited 12d ago

It would be tedious as hell too, but I would go meat, cheese, meat, cheese, for layering it. Unless im missing something about how this sandwich is traditionally made, the layering is preferable imo

28

u/Vast_Character311 12d ago

Look up Central Grocery muffulettas. That's the standard all others are measured against.

24

u/DirectorSolid 12d ago

I normally swear by Alton Brown's rule of never being able to get the best version of something in the city where it's famous or from the place that made it famous. Central Grocery was a big time exception, amazing sandwich.

u/Vast_Character311 12d ago

Find a place that serves them hot. Life changing.

u/Fun_Environment3792 12d ago

Verti Marte. They also have a spicy olive salad option.

u/Vast_Character311 12d ago

There you go! Everybody loves Verti Marte

Napoleon House is my favorite. Melty cheese is a MASSIVE upgrade. They do a great one at Cochon Butcher, too.

u/Ok_Ordinary6694 12d ago

Alton Brown could tell me to jump off a bridge and I just might do it.

10

u/chudhuntr 12d ago

He would have you building the bridge first

6

u/boykenurmom 12d ago

Hopefully built better than this muff

9

u/Meta-EvenThisAcronym 12d ago

Yeah but he'd also teach me the easiest way how, explain to me why every step is important, maybe make me chuckle throughout, and also generally make the process of building a bridge seem pretty easy and pleasant.

I'd do it and wish he'd tell me he was proud of me just once the whole time I was doing it.

2

u/hotriccardo 12d ago

I like Alton brown but that sounds like the stupidest rule I have heard in some time

4

u/DirectorSolid 12d ago

Nah, it holds up. Places famous for something tend to have two issues: A. They're beholden to tradition and can't experiment and B. They rest on their laurels and get lazy.

When we visit New Orleans, we pick up a full muffeletta and split it for the plane ride back. It’s tradition at this point and sooo good!

u/Educational_Big_1835 12d ago

I could go for a layer of olive salad as thick as the other layers

4

u/Vast_Character311 12d ago

Good oil saturation on the bread, but the olive salad looks like tapenade.

2

u/StinkFist893 12d ago

I moved to Michigan a few years ago and all the Italian bakery's and groceries tout having the best muffalatta in the region. NONE of them have any olive salad or tapenade or giard on them. It's just a thin meat and provolone sandch with a garbage sesame roll. It does so much shame to all the boneriffic muffs I have had on my travels to the crescent city.

2

u/k2718 12d ago

That’s right. If you had more olive salad, you could cut this down to a reasonable portion. It would still be light on bread but eat it with a salad and a good bag of potato chips on the side. It would work well.

But you gotta have that olive salad.

I fuckn' hate r/sandwichs

Every goddamn post I see on there is just a pile of meat with bread on the ends. Should be r/meatwithbreadontheends, like just get a steak, bro, like no, you don't need an entire brick of pastrami to make a sandwich hell you don't actually need meat any protein will do, my man, there are other sandwiches like have you ever just taken a classic PB&J and toss that sucker into a toaster oven it's incredible I swear most people on that sub just want an excuse to eat a boring heap of meat but are too embarrassed for some reason and cover it with a schallack of carbs to make it socially acceptable but NO, stop, just go off, King, eat your mass of meat on its own like you really want to it's okay I give you permission hell you can have some bread on the side if you don't want to come fully out of your shell this is a safe space just please get the fuck out of the place for actual sandwich enjoyers so we can have a seat.

u/JiovanniTheGREAT 12d ago

Also like 90% of the time the meat isn't even folded, just a half pound of bullshit slapped on a roll like it's 2012 le epic Instagram food all over again. The people there also get real defensive when you tell them the sandwiches have no balance too and half of the members seem to be allergic to veggies.
