Spicy Sandwiches Not for the Faint of Heart

Fried Chicken and Biscuit Sandwich

There's nothing quite like a fried chicken and biscuit sandwich. It's crispy, rich, comforting, and it's probably known as one of the best sandwiches that has ever existed. The fried chicken in this dish is doused with a hot honey which adds a sweet and spicy depth that is completely irresistible. And when it's all piled on top of a buttery biscuit, you'll understand why it's the perfect meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Ricotta, Stewed Sweet Potatoes + Hot Honey Grilled Cheese

Smoked ricotta, fragrant stewed sweet potatoes, and sweet and spicy hot honey combine to make this Vegetarian grilled cheese packed with flavor. I recommend using Salvatore Brooklyn's smoked ricotta because it is the best thing that's ever been invented, ever!

Open-Faced Thai Toast Sandwich

A simpler version of this Thai Toast originally appeared in Bon Appetit Magazine but has since been enhanced to add honey to balance out the savory and salty flavors! If you're unfamiliar with this type of breakfast, peanut butter toast is a simple and fast way to instantly get protein into your system and also helps boost low blood sugar levels. When Sriracha, lime juice, and cilantro are added, this open-faced Thai sandwich gets even more flavorful and much more exciting. Even though it sounds sort of strange, believe me, once you try this Thai Toast, you'll have a new go-to breakfast that's quick, easy and delicious. And best of all, it's good for you!

Kimchi and Brisket Grilled Cheese

If you've never had kimchi and are afraid to try it - this kimchi and brisket sandwich might just be perfect for you! It's buttery, rich, and creamy - basically all that is good within the grilled cheese world... while at the same time having delicious brisket and spicy yummy kimchi. The Sriracha barbecue sauce is super simple to make and is totally addicting. And best of all the kimchi acts as a probiotic so that means it's a super healthy grilled that's sure to please!

Fried Chicken and Waffle Grilled Cheese

When we think of popular modern soul food breakfasts, chicken and waffles is probably one of the first menu items to comes to mind. This isn't surprising since it's basically the best combination that's ever existed... but when you pair this modern American classic with another classic - the grilled cheese sandwich - then you've got a combo that can't lose. 

Featuring crispy fried chicken, gooey melted cheese, and hot sauce and honey grilled between two buttery waffles, this fried chicken and waffle sandwich will change your world. Guaranteed.  

Seattle Hot Dog

Seattle hot dogs combine some of the strongest flavors you can find in the average kitchen. The toppings include jalapeños and sauerkraut, while Sriracha sauce and brown mustard are favorite garnishes. All that spice gets a cool contrast from the cream cheese.

Cook the hot dogs on the grill or stovetop, and be sure to toast the buns. When it all comes together, you'll be amazed at the taste and quickly realize why it's so popular on Seattle's street food scene.

Pimento Cheese + Ham Biscuit Sandwiches

Rich, creamy and irresistible pimento cheese and ham biscuit sandwiches are filled with pimento cheese on a flaky buttery biscuit with a few slices of salty-sweet country fried ham, bright and flavorful pickled red onions, and earthy and vibrant bright green scallions. It's comfort food at its finest and it's bite-sized so you don't have to feel guilty!

These little tea-time sandwiches are the perfect appetizer for baby showers, luncheons, or when you just really need to sit on the couch and binge eat until you're satiated. And although this recipe only makes one sandwich, I prefer to serve these by the dozen with a few pitchers of mimosas or bloody marys. 

If you're vegetarian, leave out the pan-fried country ham and try adding a thick slice of salted tomato or some herbed buttermilk dressed greens. 

Scrambled Egg, Garlic Hot Sauce + Tomato Grilled Cheese

Breakfast on the go is easy with this creamy and rich grilled cheese! Alpine-style Alpha Tolman Cheese by The Cellars at Jasper HIll melts beautifully alongside scrambled eggs and fresh slices of salted tomatoes. Hearty Texas toast helps keep everything glued together and the Garlic Habanero Hot Sauce adds an extra zing of flavor and helps awaken the taste buds early in the morning. This sandwich definitely will make your breakfast more exciting.

Bulgogi Beef Steamed Buns

Korean Bulgogi Beef Steamed Buns, made with a spicy blend of gochujang, ginger, garlic, spices, and soy sauce, is marinated, grilled, and stuffed into light, fluffy, and slightly sweet steamed buns. Fresh shredded carrot, sprigs of cilantro, slices of pickled burdock (or radish), and pickled cucumbers rounds are added to the sandwich to lighten and freshen it up. And as for the kewpie mayo, well that creamy Japanese goodness is smeared on the inside of the steamed buns to help it all stay together. And trust me, if you're mouth isn't watering, go ahead and re-read the first few sentences. See what I mean? Ok, it's time for you to try this.
