Favorite Lunch Meat / Cold Cuts

cheriere — Fri, 15 Mar 2024 17:08:12 GMT

Just thought it would be fun to see what's everyone's favorite lunch meat/cold cut for a sandwich.

Lately, I've been keeping the deli busy with all my requests each week for roast beef and turkey. I seem to really be on a turkey kick lately. I like it sliced paper thin too.

What's your favorite?

For years it's been genoa salami, polish loaf, a flavored ham, and buffalo chicken from my deli counter, along with bologna!

That sounds delicious! I also get Swiss cheese from the deli for my turkey sandwiches 🥪 too! I put everything you just named on mine except for the avocado. I might have to try that!😃

Ham off the bone freshly sliced - not off a stack of sliced YESTERDAY.....and as thin as possible (shredded).

Boar's Head the best

It used to be called beef loaf and was made in Worcester(MA) when I was growing up. Don't really know how to describe it: it's kinda plain; and by the way, dogs love it too - good way to hide a pill.

Usinger's liver sausage on dark rye bread with spicy brown mustard. Guess it's my German heritage.

I always thought polish loaf was sort of similar to bologna but with green olives

Sort of - more on the 'blah' side than olive/pimento loaf.

Olive Loaf

@eddyandme Thanks for the explanation. It sounds like something my moms bought before is the reason I asked. She and my dad like some rather interesting deli cuts like a pimento loaf too.

I looked for the brand on my packages, but could only find it on the turkey. It's Sara Lee honey roasted turkey. The label on the roast beef must've not printed off right this time because it wasn't in there.

I do know a lb of my roast beef is around $12.56. The turkey is $10.77 for a lb.

Mine would be Kretschmer honey turkey shaved. Second would be Boar's Head.

That may be the name of it. I called it pimento loaf in an earlier post, but it's this I think.

I have to have my lunch meat so thinly sliced it's actually shaved too. I don't know why, but it makes a difference in the way it tastes to me.

I could probably eat lunch meat I'm not even a fan of if it were shaved thin enough lol.
