These are the sandwiches that are not just excellent or very good….These sandwiches are what they call life changing….They go more than one step beyond…..These sandwiches are like they were created on another planet delicious and are OUT OF THIS WORLD CRAZZZZZZZZY GOOD! The sandwiches are in no particular order. Pictured first is the K.F.C. Sandwich from The Larder and the Delta in Phoenix. This sandwich holds a generously sized very moist and ultra scrumptious succulent chicken thigh that seemed lightly caramelized with amazing flavors that are out of bounds and a little heat for interest. The super awesome boneless chicken thigh that is developed with more flavors than most chicken on the bone gets topped with granny apple cole slaw, big yummy bread and butter pickles and is drizzled in a hot sauce aioli. All this goodness is set in the perfect size potato bun. They call this a K.F.C. Sandwich….I call it a Kentucky FORKING Crack Sandwich.

I don’t eat burgers often so I consider a burger a sandwich. This burger I had from The Bourbon Cellar in Scottsdale is very notable. This might be the most delicious burger that I’ve tried to this date. This is the ONLY Burger I’ve ever tried that was full of flavor, very juicy and didn’t even come with sauce. What makes this burger special is that it starts with an apple cider bun. Then the burger is filled with a generously sized ground in house prime filet burger patty, lots of greens, a tomato slice and the whole thing got topped with a wasabi deviled egg. I added on bourbon pickles because they’re unique. I think it was the best burger I’ve ever had!

Is an open sandwich a sandwich? YES it can be! Here we had grilled high quality seeded bread, tea egg, pickled shallots, dill creme fraiche, salad and house smoked buttery salmon. It’s so perfect and beautiful…..This came from Ocotillo in Phoenix. It’s just so good….I wish I could eat one every week.

Another open sandwich that I tried that was exceptional was the Beet Toast from Singh Meadows in Tempe. High quality grilled country bread was topped with stunning vegetables of assorted beets (roasted, raw, pickled), fancy greens, avocado, almonds, onions, green beans and maybe some urfa pepper….It’s prettier than some pictures too!

This sandwich is called the BBQ Chicken sandwich from Confluence in Carefree. But really this sandwich is so much better than that….It’s OMG FORKING ASTONISHING……It should be called The Mind-Blower. The sandwich is a HUNDRED TIMES BETTER than I can make it sound. This gem must be made with magic…..I have no idea how chicken, celery root, spicy pickles, beet greens, staled onion mayonnaise and it’s on this mouthwatering fontina cheese bun can turn out this mind-blowing scrumptious!

I’ve had some other excellent sandwiches in Metro Phoenix but these sandwiches were The Forking Best!
Everything is subject to change and your experience may or may not differ.
When I think about how incredible and over the top these sandwiches were….In the back of my mind this is burning…..and I just have to let out……..THE FORKING TRUTH.
It’s hard to believe but the above amazing restaurant Confluence only rates a 3.5 on a popular review site. A restaurant in Peoria that served us this sandwich a few months back also rates the same 3.5 stars. (incase you are not paying attention the below sandwiches are NOT BEST of metro Phoenix) The sandwich below is from the Peoria restaurant.
This bothers me.
I also have been to this sandwich shop in Glendale that rates a whole star MORE than Confluence from the same popular review site…..
That’s The Forking Truth!
