Props to a Boulder Sandwich Shop

A couple years ago I was introduced to Jimmy and Drew's in Boulder. For years I longed for a real Jewish deli in Boulder, CO where I could get a corned beef sandwich the way it should be made, (by a Jew! j/k) What I really mean is, corned beef piled high (minimum 2.5 inches of meet) with swiss cheese on Rye bread and mustard. That's it. End of story.

So, when a couple friends heard about this little sandwich shop in Esquire magazine that rated one of it's sandwiches one of the best in the country I couldn't wait to try. Jimmy and Drew's . And since Jimmy and Drew's is half owned by a Jew I figured it might not be half bad (or however that saying goes...).

The sandwich that put it on the map is "Jimmy's Favorite." A classic pastrami sandwich piled high. The wrinkle? It replaces the rye bread with latkes (potato pancakes for all you gentiles out there). The result? let's just say I gained about 10 pounds.

Well, the shop is now getting some more props. The sandwich made it onto a list Seven of the Fattiest Sandwiches in the US put together by the people at Divine Caroline - the list for your viewing pleasure.

But think about this for a second, is it any shock that one of the best sandwiches in the US is also one of the worst for you? NOT AT ALL.
