I have a sister named Gina. Gina has a friend named Desiree who has been bothered by the fact that I rarely mention my sister. So, in honor of Gina (and to put Desiree’s mind at ease) I’m featuring one of Gina’s excellent sandwiches today. But before I give you the low-down on how to make these, here’s a few things about Gina.
- When she was little, Gina had a Mrs. Beasley doll, a Bugs Bunny doll and a J.J. doll with a pull string (Dynomite!)
- Her favorite doll was Baby Beans, who was so over-loved that mom had to stuff her with old pantyhose after all the beans fell out. We also fed Baby Beans a marshmallow through her cracked mouth. It’s still in there, black from age.
- In high school, she always matched her socks to her shirt. And she had many, many pairs of shoes.
- She introduced me to my husband, Jim.
- Now she and her husband raise 3 children and a herd of bison.
Now for the Club Sandwiches. They taste fantastic with hot melted cheese, bacon and seasoned, toasted buns. Here’s what you’ll need:
Gina’s Club Sandwich

Those look really good. How about a recipe featuring bison?

I may have to do a bison recipe. I actually have one in mind, but I’ve got to get some bison meat. Maybe when we get my niece’s 4-H project we can pick up some bison too.

I love that you seasoned the buns for this sandwich! It looks terrific!
Tiffany says
I wouldn’t have thought to season the buns either. My sister has a way with sandwiches 😉

I’m not a huge sandwich lover unless it’s a sandwich done well. And this one seems to fit the bill! I never would have thought to toast my roll for just a sandwich. I’ll have to consider that next time. Love your site! 🙂

These were incredible. Buttering the top bun and the seasoning are what make this sandwich so special. My husband loves sandwiches and this got his stamp of approval.
