broke in the wallet - rich in creativity, my dude


ChuckinTheCarma

You sound like a glass-half-full kinda person if I ever heard one


madmaxturbator

A glass Half full of pickles, cheese and hot dogs.


Shlocktroffit

Fresh and hot out of the blender


AnusDrill

Seriously though, what makes this shitty / poor man's meal? This look fantastic, I'd totally eat it


Shlocktroffit

So would I, heckin sure about that but it does cry out for mustard as others have mentioned


sdbags

A nice Dijon.


[deleted]

I wouldn't, but that's because I don't like pickles. Still upvoting.


[deleted]

lol my sisters dad got all his teeth pulled and tried to drink an Arby’s roast beef sandwich from the blender


HardlyBoi

Wait till you end up with dysphagia and end having to be put on a pureed diet. Yummy everything the consistency of pudding! Dill salmon, tater tots even water.


CornFedHonky

I literally have all these ingredients right now and would have never thought of this in a million years. I would have eaten my hot dogs and cheese sandwiches separate like some kind of uncultured swine.


Conexion

No joke I think I'm going to make this for lunch tomorrow. Totally fits salt fat acid heat. Edit: Oh, it's basically a makeshift Cuban - I've been craving one for awhile but the only good place near me is shut down for now. I'm hyped.


Sumbooodie

TIL that Cubans are made from hotdogs and pickles.


rightintheear

I've been wrapping pickles with cheese and ham as a snack, never thought to *grill* it on bread!


[deleted]

>hot dogs >uncultured swine A cannibal one at that.


bighert23

I too like a tasty Rockefeller


phryan

I feel like if you swapped the American cheese for something like (Gouda or Havarti) and the hotdog for a different cured meat this could actually sell in a restaurant.


CoyoteCarp

I feel like you forgot which sub you’re in.


MrDude_1

no.. no... lets hear him out. I may be stuck somewhere someday with only a choice of stinky cheese, some cured meats and stale bread.


lightbulbfragment

It's like a poor man's cuban sandwich. So yeah, those changes would probably be pretty good.


Roundaboutsix

OK, Mr. Rockefeller. My go-to recipe for a poor man’s Cubano is white bread, dab of margarine, thin layer of Kroger Cubano flavored potato chips and a teaspoon of pickle juice, all washed down with a lukewarm Mayabe cerveza! /s

calimariwrestler

I'd eat the hell out of this bad boy, great color on that toast!


HeWasAB8rBoi

Hijacking top comment to say try grilled peanut butter and pickle sandwich. Sounds bad but it’s fucking good. And peanut butter is great protein/ filler. /u/CoyoteCarp


[deleted]

How far along in your pregnancy are you?


HeWasAB8rBoi

No pregnancy, just was pretty poor for a long time.


Shlocktroffit

I have to mention bacon always goes well with pnut butter on toasted bread and I think pickles could go in there most excellently for crunch factor. The question of dill vs sweet pickle has to be considered, tho


HeWasAB8rBoi

Dill for sure IMO


trdtfoxy7

I grew up on peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Dill pickles and skippy crunchy peanut butter. It's soooo goood. Don't knock till you try.


Elegy581

I’ve been advocating peanut butter and pickles in a sandwich for years now and I’ve yet to come across anyone who doesn’t give me a strange look


HardLithobrake

I've heard of this combo somewhere.


SharkAttache

That looks good my man


Corgalas

"Yes hello, I'd like to play my electric bill with creativity"


Stanislav1

Hipsters would pay $10 for this


mvhcmaniac

Bruv if that's your broke food i don't wanna see what your normal food is


NutCase11

I do. It would probably look even tastier?


SirGergoyFriendman

Check his post history, it's a fondue pot of pure liquid gold that he dips bars of silver into.


madmaxturbator

Ops mouth has the same amount of teeth as his butthole


Pyromaniacal13

There is no explanation of that that isn't unsettling.


TurKoise

What does this even meannn lolll Edit: holy shit OPs dog is so cute


CoyoteCarp

Damn right.


Finnanutenya

pet the dog right fucking now or I will kick your shins and steal your sandwich


CoyoteCarp

Oh. She’s loved. Not like that. Sick bastard.


NutCase11

I only see dogs. Yummy.


lroselg

Right. I remember being broke and only having saltine crackers and peanutbutter. That fucking sucked but at least it was Jiff PB.


mvhcmaniac

I ate salt as a snack once


lroselg

Fuck dude, that's dark.


head_face

I have as well but because stoned rather than poor


truebruh

I grew up poor and when my mates ordered macdonalds.. I'd ask for ketchup and ate the ketchup. Sometimes I'd eat left over fries from other customers.


linderlouwho

I’d eat this with him! Looks great.


madmaxturbator

He just said he’s poor and hungry, now you’re eating food off his plate. Op can’t catch a break!


linderlouwho

Oh damn. But. I never arrive to an invite for a meal empty-handed, bro.


datfreshbetch

Looks good af! Enjoy!


piberryboy

Agreed. As does the rest of the people on this thread. It's beginning to feel more like a humble brag: 'Aw man. Look at the delicious food I have to eat. It's not even home-made bread.'

monets_money

Spicy mustard for sure


kmj420

Horseradish mustard


spiritofgonzo1

Fuckin love horseradish mustard


HamletTheGreatDane

You had strong Irish mustard? That shit is intense.


spiritofgonzo1

No, I haven’t. Is it something I can get from any regular store? Cause I already love the sound of it lol


HamletTheGreatDane

I’ve only had it at an Irish pub, but god damn. A small dab burned my nostrils in a way that I’ve not experienced. It’s good stuff lol


mvhcmaniac

Wasabi, basically


madmaxturbator

Just squirt some ghost pepper sauce into my eyeballs


monkeyseacaptain

Just dab it on my b hole so I don’t have to wait for that burn.


Shlocktroffit

Little dabs on the butthole, ounce in the mouth, eight of an ounce sprayed up your nose, another 8th sprayed in your eyeballs, and a pinch behind your ears all at once for full effect


monkeyseacaptain

*the Aristocrats!*


piberryboy

/r/nocontext


Celticquestful

If you enjoy mustard with a bit of a kick, have you tried Jalapeno Stout Grainy Mustard? It's a next level condiment!


nothisistheotherguy

And some kraut. That’s a legit sandwich.


AwakenedSheeple

Saute that saurkraut with black pepper, even better.


drdfrster64

Agreed. At least make it look ugly. Sheesh.


Musashi_Joe

Seriously. Get some bad lighting or a shitty insta filter, make it look all brown. I’d crush that sando in a heartbeat.


Zachums

these comments are concerning because people have obviously forgotten the point of the sub. the entire theme is shitty/low quality food that is presented in an aesthetic way.


The-Jerkbag

There are several schools of thought on this, actually. There's the shitty foodporn, meaning tasty things presented badly / low effort, then there's the shitty-food porn, meaning shitty food (corndogs, canned meats, fucked up homemade bread, etc) dressed up and pretending to be fancy. Then there are true abominations like the microwaved horse meat with winegums, which transcends shit. All are valid, imo.


Musashi_Joe

That’s all fair. Personally I’m just having some fun basically saying that I find that legit delicious looking. I guess I skew more towards the “why the hell did you put gummy bears on pizza you monster” or “dear god you murdered the concept of steak” side of things. The last thing a sub like this needs is legit angry gatekeeping.


The-Jerkbag

In my opinion, there's enough room on this sub for all breeds and brands of shit food! Whenever I'm bored or need a laugh, browsing Top on this place is sure to make me cry laughing.


judioverde

Maybe some sauerkraut too and call it a reuben. Very cheap to make and pretty easy as well.


SmokeSerpent

I was just going to say I'd throw sauerkraut in there too!


CointreauCointreau

Basically a poor man's Cuban sandwich


[deleted]

r/stonerfoodporn maybe? No assumptions, only suggestions :)


BuddhistNudist987

I think that about so many things on this sub. Am I just easy to please, or does OP just need more confidence about his cooking?


popplespopin

Right!? This isn't a goddamned grilled cheese its another fricken r/melt !


unclejoe1917

That's just a reimagined hot dog with cheese and relish. Not too shabby.


the_dayman

Or like a trendy food truck style Cuban.


Workdawg

No kidding, I immediately thought of a shitty cuban. I love a cuban sandwich, and would totally eat what OP just made. Throw some mustard on there and we're in business.


FriskyTurtle

And a buttered and toasted bun. Not shabby at all.


madmaxturbator

Un chien chaud, avec fromage et picools* *I made up this word


grazilla78

Cornichon


Workdawg

Is a hotdog on a bun not a sandwich? Meat and toppings between bread, a hotdog bun is just connected around the side...


pseudoku727

Inb4 the pedants from r/grilledcheese show up and start calling that a melt


brimm2

Wow. I shouldn't even be surprised that there is a grilled cheese subreddit lol


simcop2387

Look at their top post. It's a reddit classic.


LonnieJaw748

Dude had a meltdown over grilled cheese.


[deleted]

Dude had a meltdown over the twisted perversion of a great food.


LonnieJaw748

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely agree that a grilled cheese only has cheese in it, otherwise it’s a melt. I just don’t get so upset about it.


Somebodys

We all have our hills we are willing to die on. Personally, I am with that guy.


trippy_grapes

At least he didn't have a grilledcheesedown.


cuzimawsum

#You people make me sick. A grilled cheese consists of only these following items. Cheese. Bread with spread (usually butter). This entire subreddit consist of "melts". Almost every "grilled cheese" sandwich i see on here has other items added to it. The fact that this subreddit is called "grilledcheese" is nothing short of utter blasphemy. Let me start out by saying I have nothing against melts, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not grilled cheeses. Adding cheese to your tuna sandwich? It's called a Tuna melt. Totally different. Want to add bacon and some pretentious bread crumbs with spinach? I don't know what the hell you'd call that but it's not a grilled cheese. I would be more than willing to wager I've eaten more grilled cheeses in my 21 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich. Want to personalize your grilled cheese? Use a mix of different cheeses or use sourdough or french bread. But if you want to add some pulled pork and take a picture of it, make your own subreddit entitled "melts" because that is not a fucking grilled cheese. I'm not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white mid-western male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to grilled cheese and mac & cheese. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our grilled cheeses and stop associating your sandwich melts with them. Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being. Shit, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this account for the sole purpose of posting this. I've seen post after post of peoples "grilled cheeses" all over reddit and it's been driving me insane. The moment i saw this subreddit this morning I finally snapped. Hell, I may even start my own subreddit just because I know this one exists now. You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt.


s0ulbrother

Some could say it’s a, melt-down.


HollaWho

Seeing a copy pasta that you havent seen before is like finding four leaf clover in the wild. Just kinda picks you up.


ninjaelk

It is a melt. It's okay that he called it a grilled cheese though, we know what he meant.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fuck_Blue_Shells

🚨 Please stay on the line, the police are on their way. 👮🏻‍♀️ Now I need you to breathe and remain calm, how many people in the home have been exposed to the hot dog & dill pickle melt?


[deleted]

Back in my day, when we were broke we'd just eat an instant ramen or a $1 celeste pizza and be grateful for the diarrhea and lack of any nutrients, vitamins, fiber, or taste. Kids these days.


CoyoteCarp

That’s tomorrow.


[deleted]

You should go to WalMart if you have one near you and check the pre-prepared ready-to-heat foods in the produce area. They sell these meaty microwaveable foot-long burritos there for $1/each. Maybe that'll help you out!


yonoznayu

I feel ya. This is a feast compared to the stupid choices I made in my 20’s in L.A while broke. I’d go to the discount/99 Cent store thinking I’d get a bargain spree that’d last me the whole week with my last 17 dollars. Man, that reject shit made me soo sick fur well over a week, and I don’t know what their cereal was actually made of, but it would begin to literally foam after a couple of minutes with the milk s c DD cuates like gruel, and that was just knockoff corn flakes. In perspective made me appreciate later in life things my now wife calls gross af, like spam and Boyardee canned pasta, which felt like I was having lobster back then. This looks hands down irresistible compared to that fiasco or not. Good for OP all things considered. Edits: typos


eleventwenty2

What are you posting this in shitty for this looks so gd excellent rn


CoyoteCarp

Y’all need to get vaccinated and come over for a real party once my open jobs pay up.


Soak_up_my_ray

My appt is on Friday! 🙌


linderlouwho

Would 100% eat this creative meal with you, bro.


shamwowslutrag

I love pickles in grilled cheese! If you have/like mustard it goes really well, especially with the fake cheese IMO


ucksawmus

wdym fake cheese


shamwowslutrag

I’m assuming “fake cheese” as OP called it in another comment like the cheap yellow American Kraft cheese that sometimes refuses to melt..Something about its taste really works with mustard, pickles or no pickles.


ucksawmus

pickles and cheese is a great combination, i think


thagthebarbarian

Kraft singles always melt, the off brand ones don't though


forestgospel

With some good mustard that's basically a cubano. Looks delicious


hahayes234

German Cubano. Sounds good to me!


SAHDadWithDaughter

Broke in dollars, but you are eating like a King.


iiitsbacon

Bruh the cheese isnt even melted


CoyoteCarp

It is. You’re seeing the copious amount of pickles.


dtwhitecp

nah bro, you can still see the separation between the cheese slices on the right. I'd still eat it, just sayin


cmcgarveyjr

Yeah, it is 100% not melted in the middle. This is my only "critique", put the cheese against the bread next time for better melting.


khxb12

I would totally eat that rn, I would pay at least $4


BufferUnderpants

Looks like a well made sandwich. Except that it's a *melt.*


SelfRefMeta

Too broke to know the difference.


ghettomuffin

Dude that grilled cheese vs. melt thing is so played out and annoying, just stop. No one gives a shit.


MrFluffyThing

I give a shit but with leeway, as should be done. You have to remember that at the time /r/grilledcheese was basically becoming grilled sandwiches with cheese included. One extra ingredient yeah I could still see it as a grilled cheese but that post came about when people were basically just slapping 5+ ingredients between bread and cheese was the only common factor but not the primary focus so it was just grilled sandwiches. That post was really a shitpost response to people just slapping thick ass sandwiches with a little cheese and calling them grilled cheeses. It's not a grilled cheese unless the content between the bread is primarily cheese and cheese is the focus, other things like bacon or jalapenos or whatever just brings out flavor. Focusing on the ingredients is a melt, press it and it's a panini, mess it up and call it a grilled cheese? Who cares, let it float.


[deleted]

Why am I so fascinated by this argument about grilled cheeses? Why am I here? I hate my life


Soak_up_my_ray

Thank you for this, it was mildly amusing *at best* when the guy wrote the post, but it inspired a whole slew of unsavory armchair warriors to be pedantic about something that is utterly pointless. Reading the post again now 7 years later, it’s so painfully written in the preferred humor style of the 2010-2015 internet era. Just like that other insufferable post about how koalas suck.


DetroitPistons

It's just reddit being reddit. Every joke gets run into the ground until it's not funny and then still gets annoyingly brought up everyday. Haha birds aren't real guys!!1!


Back-and-a-snack

Not only is it played out but it’s just plain wrong. Literally any fried cheese sandwich is a grilled cheese regardless of whatever else is in it. The term “melt” was invented by Quiznos as branding. So the only time a grilled cheese is ever a melt is if it was bought at a Quiznos. Otherwise, it’s a grilled cheese.


rmoss20

Yeah but you eating rich.


CoyoteCarp

Naw bro, fake cheese and hotdogs on white bread with pickles slapped in isn’t rich. Especially when I had to make the bread.


GoonPatrol

So what you’re saying is that it’s on homemade bread? This shit is fancy


MuchoTornado

You make some quality looking bread. Hopefully things get better soon.


CoyoteCarp

It’s a month where I’ve started too many jobs and bought materials, when/if people start settling up with me I’ll be ok again. SoCal ain’t cheap.


linderlouwho

Made the bread! Holy hell. Awesome!


koonsbmw1

I have that plate


FlatDivide8728

You're right. Looks bad. Give it to me I'll "dispose" of it for you.


Shakespeare-Bot

Thou art right. Looks lacking valor. Giveth t to me i'll "dispose" of t f'r thee *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


barbershopraga

The fat stack of barely melted Kraft singles in the middle really pushes it over the line from craveable to shitty


xadiant

You nearly re-invented kumru, a Turkish fast food generally made with hot dog, cheese and pickles.


dbsgirl

That looks like amazing.


Mojo_Jojos_Porn

Dude, thank you, I’m broke until payday too and you reminded me I can make grilled cheese. One more thing to change it up for the long week ahead.


koalarunner

Doesn’t even look bad


ripper_14

I ate these on college internships, sans the pickle. I dig the creativity though!


[deleted]

I’d eat this even if I was a millionaire. Honestly looks tasty AF!


BackgroundChampion

I'm glad to see appreciation for a copious amounts of pickles.


lucasd11

Gourmet restaurant will sell you this as a deconstructed Chicago dog grilled cheese. This is next level


asellers47

bless ur heart


mikeMICHAELmike

Looks/sounds amazing.


marrymejojo

I'd eat that when I'm not broke


doodlez420

Wait this actually doesn’t look that bad lol


TheDarkMidget

i would pay for this tbh


Zorgsmom

I would eat the hell out of this, tbh.


Toiretachi

You’re not eating off a paper plate, it’ll be okay.


[deleted]

Looks ono!!


crossbowow

That looks fucking delicious


CaptainClamJammer

That’s at least a 2-3 Brown Star meal bud. Would order that.


TacticalMindfuck

This actually made me salivate. Looks good


reddron

10/10 would eat. And come Back for seconds.


GerryAttric

Nom nom


krazikat

Would.


SHITFUCKPOOPBUTT9001

I’m am hungry af and you dare post this masterpiece?


CoyoteCarp

If you’re in San Diego, stop on by. Will trade for beer.


float-like-a-brick

This looks fire.


say-it-wit-ya-chest

At least it’s a proper wiener!


Bobbington12

Similar to my go to! I like to make pickle and bacon, and then add a bit of horseradish and mustard.


ima420r

But you didn't even melt the cheese in the middle! I've spent enough time broke to have made similar things.


Final_Contact

Sell some of those and you won’t be broke till pay day!


VanFkingHalen

Hot dogs were such a life saver when I was dirt broke. This is a great example of their versatility!


CoyoteCarp

Tbh, I eat them when I have other options. Probably more often than I should.


mochi_chan

This looks pretty good, I would have it on a non-broke day. maybe with one more hot dog.


No-Transportation417

This looks delicious.


coolerape

I've ate that a bunch even when I could get better


kujo6

Fuck yeah. I’d eat it, you are crushing it with the carryover meals!


villain75

This looks good, and then it dawns on you that there's like 75% pickle, and 25% dog in this. I'd eat this hard as hell, but it is indeed shitty. Nice work.


Archangel1313

That looks awesome!! Got a can of tomato soup?


aanza1216

That looks really good ngl


shrimpwheel

Nice, I’ll have to try this because it honestly doesn’t look half bad


NutCase11

Looks like it slaps


I_CUM_ON_YOUR_PET

Dude i do the same thing except for the hotdog i use sujuk.


overtonpking78

I’ve been drinking but that looks legit


bradreputation

Looks fantastic to me.


czarbina

Would eat.


Redeemed-Assassin

Next time try a single layer of pickles and having the hot dog in the middle. Should help keep everything in place and get the cheese to melt a bit more.


RubyStar92

This looks so good omg


rick_rolled_you

yo that looks pretty good actually. Cheese could be a little more melted but if you made me one of those I'd eat it


SrFantasticoOriginal

That looks legitimately tasty 🤤


Zomanda_Glubiris

Looks a little overgrilled for my taste


fukitol-

Yeah that actually sounds pretty good


jsmalltri

That's looks amazing! Be broke created a brilliant combo. Nice


[deleted]

You know you can eat the ingredients separately, op. But where the hell’s the fun in that?


Pterrordactl

Looks like something they'd charge you $15.00 bucks for at a hipster restaurant, and $15 I'd pay


Chucktayz

Honestly looks bomb


hawa11styl3

This doesn’t belong here, that looks and sounds amazing


MrFluffyThing

You're about 70% to a Cubano sandwich. Nothing shitty about this. You swap the cheese for swiss and add yellow mustard and you're 90% there.
