A Sandwich a Day: The Bandit from Back Country Pizza and Taphouse in Boulder, CO

In this great country of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year—so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around the country. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know. —The Mgmt.

Backcountry Pizza and Taphouse is known for its beers (over 50 on tap), but there's also a pretty long list of sandwiches. The six-inch is $7, the foot-long, $11. Most of them are hot including one called "The Hot Mob," but its cold counterpart is "The Bandit," which includes ham, salami, pepperoni, provolone, lettuce, tomato, and Italian dressing.

The Bandit is served on a section of French bread that's perfect for sandwiches: not too crusty, not too chewy. Let's face it, I'm a complete bread snob, and I know this wasn't baked in-house but it was the right bread for this kind of sandwich.
