Bánh Mì Sandwiches
This is my version of a Bánh Mì sandwich. I know my method isn't even remotely traditional, but it sure is tasty!
My original idea was to marinate the chuck roast in sweet orange tea.
I can't recall why, but when I first planned on making this I got interrupted. As a result, I chose to freeze the chuck roast in the tea.
Ingredients:
3 lbs chuck roast
1 gallon sweet orange tea
3 oranges
cilantro
pickled jalapenos
fried egg
McCormick's Perfect Pitch Asian seasoning
Central Market Thai One On Wild Heat BBQ sauce
1 liter Ginger Ale (for spritz)
bolillo rolls
Hickory mini logs
Orange wood chunks
Jack Daniels whiskey barrel chunks
Slaw:
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup julienned carrot
1/2 cup julienned daikon radish
Kosher salt
Directions:
Step 1:
Make the slaw: In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and vinegar and bring to a boil. Transfer the vinegar mixture to a bowl and cool. Add the carrot and daikon, mix well, and season with salt. Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes or store in the refrigerator up to overnight.
