March Madness has got me feeling a certain way, but I don't know anything about basketball, so the scientific pursuit of the sandwich will have to suffice. Will we be singing the ballad of Egg Salad, or is it all about the ease of the Grilled Cheese? There's only one way to find out! - เกม

35:41 “The falafel pita has one principal problem. It’s the pita.”
36:43 “Can I tell you another weakness with the falafel pita? It’s the falafel.”
NL ragged on both integral parts to the falafel pita, and I still honestly thought he was about to pick it. Love this kind of content.
"This looks like a work schedule" - Ryan attacking the Liverwurst sandwich without mercy
16:20 "The Reuben, on the otherhand, it's as if made by God."
My sentiments exactly.
When he said "that's why I'll go with the Chicken sandwich" I did the full Pikachu shocked meme
@@dairyinthelibraryinn Unexpected, but it was 100% the right call
@@christopherbareja996 not a chance. Rueben sandwich is so much better as a sandwich. Chicken sandwich is only good because of the fried chicken, you can do that minus the sandwich. Id argue bun and other things lower quality of fried chicken. The Rueben on the other hand has salty and umami from corned beef, has tangy and kinda vinegar sour from the sauerkraut, swiss cheese brings a nuttiness to it, then choose mustard of russian dressing on marbled rye. I mean it is the yin and yang of greatness and every part of it is integral for it to be good.
I just watched this man run a bracket on sandwiches for 41 minutes at 1 AM. I don't know what my life has become, but I have no regrets. Yessir.
My favorite content. The only thing that could’ve made this better is if a few nlss members made brackets as well and everyone argued over them
Me too bro
Lol now I'm doing that exact same thing. It's 1:19 right now
@@ChillsUnearthed 2:24 for me :)
Lol by the time this finishes I’ll be at 1 am too
damn repentance looks tight
He's just teasing us at this point. I'm seeing other Isaac players already putting out Repentance videos, but I won't watch them. NL or bust.
@@jacksonwolf34 I'm not sure when he's going to jump on stream but I've had my eye out on Twitch
HE'S ON NOW OMG GOGOGOGO
No one:
NL: Caprese, what can I say. I like a Capri Sun.
I overestimated how much he cared about bread integrity and was completely blindsided by his love for falafel lol.
the most beautiful sentence in the english language
He drastically overrates falafel there is way tooo much garbage falafel in the world
@@Chunkosaurus I can't say you're wrong but as a falafel lover even the worst falafel is a winner in my eyes.
@@Jonksy also doesn't take anything more than a good tzatziki to bring a bad falafel back to life
@@nicholasfrantz585 in that case you might as well had the gyro
29:00 Liverwurst contains its self as an ingredient, It's a fractal sandwich.
But does the liverwurst in the liverwurst have liverwurst in it?
recursive sandwich is recursive
Respect a sandwich that warns you about itself. Liver; worst.
By that logic a BLT is also a fractal sandwich.
It's the liver-verse
I fucking lost it at the Cucumber Tea vs Kentucky Hot Brown fight.
Unsalted butter smh, literally the only other ingredient is well known for tasing great with salt, and they pick UNsalted butter
@@ArkhBaegor cucumbers are well known for tasting great with salt??
Who the frig shapes their hot browns like the confederate flag, trully disrespectful to Kentucky cuisine, smh
@@ahhhhyes Yeah dude, just sprinkle some salt on a cucumber, it's a classic
@@ArkhBaegor maybe even some vinegar if you are feeling risky
"If you rearrange the letters in caprese you get 'ecapers'!"
This man's thoughts and motivations are beyond our understanding.
i had to pause the video. i'm still laughing too hard 5 minutes later to resume watching
The 18 hour pita vs cubano argument had me enthralled
Whoever set up these starting brackets is insane
Well, it is supposed to be a tough choice
NL calls himself a Seinfeld fan but cant even recognize a marbled rye when he sees it
I know the audacity.
Maybe he would know what it was if you rip it from the hands of an old bag
@@TheEpicNewman ive got a local place that makes three different marbled ryes.
Im saying this a former manager at many delis and sub restaurants. Cuban is solid no doubt, but I want to sell you on something I bet you've never had. Take some honey ham, sliced how you like it. Lay some out like a bed, add a layer sliced provolone, fold that once to the size of the sandwich and drop it on a hot pan. Let it sizzle for a bit, flip it. You know you are nailing it when the ham is browning in parts on the cooked side.
Have a good sub roll prepared with mayo and lettuce. Drop the hot ham and provolone on that, add white onions and sliced tomato. Just a dash of oregano to the top, close that and enjoy! I wasn't a fan of ham until I tried it with melted provolone and all the fix.
Add yes sirs to your liking 😉
Big respect to NL for not dissing the grilled cheese. He is right, you can do fantastic things to them. Lately I've been melting cheddar on ciabattas with slices of roma tomato added after taking out of the toaster oven.
Another favorite is melted mozzarella on thin focaccia with roma, basil leaves and a dash of Italian red oil and pesto.
If you go to a restaurant that has Thanksgiving sandwiches you will understand that it is good in march, june, and especially september, the biggest push back against a Thanksgiving sandwich is the sheer amount of work and different uncommon parts that are needed to comprise it, not the enjoyment of eating it
Yep yep
I still revisit this video. This is a certified northern lion classic
Legends know
Was eating a grilled cheese sandwich while NL was describing the power of the fried bread and I could relate on a spiritual level with what he was saying
"That could be paper, it wouldn't change the quality [of a bologna sandwich]"
Great sandwich burn
NL being the egg, it makes perfect sense that the smashed egg sandwich is your worst nightmare.
"I would rather have a falafel Pita than a Gyro"
This man is insane
Not to backseat, but you accidentally didn't end with reuben vs. gyro.
it's unbelievable that those didn't make it further than he let them
Wow this was def my final as well good to know lawful people still exist
I was very sad to see the Reuben lose to a fried chicken sandwich
@rockman fan sauerkraut and corned beef on marbled rye can really knock your socks off if you get it from the right place. You should give one a try sometime
The Reuben is a combination of all of the worst forms of its ingredients. Sauerkraut is the absolute worst way to prepare cabbage, corned beef is just a poorly seasoned version of brisket, and rye bread is the single most inferior type of bread in existence.
The Reuben has no right making it past the first round smh
this video is the best thing since sliced bread
I love how there is two fake accounts trying to convince this
@@Nick-eq5oo just report both.
I think this format is a lot stronger than the tier list format but idk why
The drama of the face off does it for me. My favorites going head to head?? Hell yeah I'm in.
my man out here getting nostalgic for ham
edit: cubano gang let's goooo
Dude I love my grandma to death but when she brings egg salad sometimes I consider asking her to leave
I really just watched a grown man critique sandwiches for 40 minutes, what a world.
Egg's patty melt take made me feel similar to how Caesar felt when Brutus stabbed him
Et tu, Egg?
My man spent 40 minutes doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but discussing the relative merits of sandwiches, and it's a contender for a Top Ten All-Time NL Vid for me.
The Italian beef is basically a French dip but they’ve pre-dipped the entire sandwich for you. I agree that there’s no question but the answer is the Italian,
Man disrespects the meatballs for being round but falafels are immune and almost won!
This man really eliminated the blt, the pulled pork, and the party melt all in the first round. Three of the greatest sandwiches of all time. The audacity.
Patty melt is B-tier at best imo
But he did the right thing with the Cubano
Its a bracket, sometimes they just get a bad bracket
To be fair, pulled pork went against the Italian round 1. Like cmon, theres nothing he could do.
The selection committee was incredibly biased in these seedings
I have eaten like 3 to 4 of these sandwiches at most and NL is over here saying "... I've eaten some of these in my time"
I don't think I could name another person that could talk about sandwiches and keep me entertained the entire time
This is definitely
march madness
more like munch madness
Gotta say, the po'boy was done super dirty there because of NL's ignorance. NL *has* to try those things out. Like a bad po'boy is a good sandwich, but a good po'boy (like in the heart of nola) is transcendent.
The rueben disrespect hurts. At its peak it might be unrivaled
Truly the Hakeem Olajuwon of sandwiches
There's way too many good ass sandwiches. I got anxiety from all the fantastic sandwich choices
Blt vs fried chicken sandwhich is like setting the first and second seeds against eachother in the first round, my god.
The grilled cheese over the gyro had me in shock, heated even.
right?? Gyro's are fuckin magical
@@Koshmar-13 Bro hit me with a mf Gyro or a Shwarma anytime if day happy af
I never thought someone would think so deeply about this- i mean it’s beautiful quite frankly
I just want to point out that if you order a Reuben in Montreal, you will get Montreal style smoke meat instead of corn beef. It makes it a much more flavourful sandwich. Once you've had a Reuben in Montreal, it is hard to order one in any other city because it just isn't as good.
Dunns is amazing, also... Reubens
I’ve grown with smoked meat sandwiches and corn beef is just foul to me.
im 23 and i just had ham the other night, mom makes a good ham, pair it with some pineapple and im absolutely pogged outta my gourd
NL: Spends the first 3 minutes talking about how much he loves ham
Also NL: Picks Reuben over Monte Cristo
you can love ham but not a deep fried bennigans funnel cake of a sandwich.
Yessssssss! I caught this live but I really wanted to send this to a few of my friends! Thanks for uploading this :)
My mental health wake-up call was when NL said "this is a depression sandwich" as Im actively digesting a bologna...
The purpose of the cucumber sandwich is something to be politely quiet with while someone else is talking.
Doesn’t mean it’s a good sandwich though.
@@remixedremix Never said it was
@@AstroBioMan Gonna take the unpopular opinion and say a cucumber sandwhich with heavy pepper is an actually good sandwich
@@glgina6 this opinion is unpopular for a reason
@@bruh3457 cucumber sandwich, toasted brown or heavy grain bread with them seeds and stuff on it, slight shmear of cream cheese or butter, maybe even some good olive oil if that’s what you fancy. heavy dosage of black pepper and dried italian herb mix (oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary).
that’s a good sandwich.
I may not agree with every choice, heck, I may have even become enraged once or twice, but I respect the hell out of this guy's sandwich opinions
This is actually an insanely good bracket.
I'm 23, my mom makes some great maple ham!
“NOBODY LIKES YOU WHEN YOURE TWENTY THREEE...”
dudes posting their W’s on youtube
NL looking strung out on the thumbnail lmao. That peloton life got him looking healthier than ever now, it's like night and day.
Bocadillos are amazing! Good Spanish bread, you rub the cut side of the bread with tomato, maybe lard, maybe olive oil, and put some jamon serrano (Spanish ham) on it. More than the sum of its parts!
really? to me a bocadillo is basically just the sum of its parts and mainly serves as a device to deliver Jamon to your mouth. I would probably rather have its parts separate. Its not a bad sandwich per say but thats mainly because Jamon is such a great ingredient.
ryans never had a better take than his one for the meatball sub, meatloaf sub comments included
If a meatball flavored meatloaf sub is on the menu, there's no going back. The only thing that can compete is a gravy flavored meatloaf sub. I guess I gotta learn to make meatloaf if I want to ever taste that goodness.
this comment is cursed
8:32 I've never seen a man so proud to have eaten a sandwich. Golden content NL.
@Northernlion A Bocadillo is a Spanish sandwich. Typically, it's made out of Jamón Serrano (the Spanish equivalent of Parma ham) and with some Spanish hard cheese (similar to Parmesan cheese, but typically a little softer and less intense, especially the one you would put on a sandwich), on a Spanish baguette (Spain has some of the world's best bread btw).
In short, it's normally as good as a sandwich gets... just supreme ingredients on a great bread. Also, super easy/great for bringing with you; just wrap it in some plastic foil, and it will stay fresh for a couple of days in room temperature.
I came to the comments for the bocadillo also. The man hasn’t tried the Spanish cured meats and Spanish bread and Spanish tomatoes and it shows. Always simple and always top tier
Giardiniera is a mixture of vegetables (peppers, celery, carrots, cauliflower, cucumber) marinated in oil and vinegar with herbs and spices. Chicago style is chili-spicy and has olives. Either way it's a hard to beat as an additional filling in a meat sandwich.
Cucumber tea sandwiches are great... but whoever wrote that book had never had one.
Take your wheat bread, make sure it's nice and fluffy and fresh.
Cut it into slices. Cut the crusts off the slices.
Slice your cucumber into decent sized chunks about 3mm to 6mm thick.
Spread salted butter on one side, cream cheese on the other with a layer of cucumber in between.
Cut into triangles.
Amazing sandwich that is incredibly light and refreshing. Great at afternoon teas alongside petite fours.
I don't know who this boomer is or why TH-camr recommended this video but I am enjoying watching this guy rate sandwiches
oh my god you made me crave ham, scalloped potatoes, and green beans
New England, is that you?
Baby teething: indifferent
Pb&J without banana & untoasted: LIVID
I've never been so emotionally conflicted on these choices. I can respect the bread integrity arguments, as well as specific ingredients preference.
Just wanted to add that I'm 20 and I eat ham for dinner just depends for me which meat I haven't had for a while. Can also agree that I miss ham as I think it has been about a month since I had any.
I moved in with a room mate who only eats chicken last year. I haven't had an event to cook a ham for over a year.
But Easter is here babbbbbbyyyyy! Time to make a huge one and have Sammy's for week
I'm 47 so what I have for dinner fall outside of this entire thing but my 19 yr old and 21 yr old LOVE when we make ham. Probably have it at least 2 or 3 times a month in the winter and about once a month the rest of the year. It's not a staple like chicken but we have it quite a bit.
the e-capers joke is fucking divine
Not what I expected to watch Christmas morning, but here we are.
you've lost your god damn mind taking grilled cheese over gyro
I've never been more disappointed in a man than when he chose grilled cheese over Bacon Egg and Cheese.
I almost never agree with nl on anything. Egg was straight up on point until he chose falafel pita over cheesesteak and then grilled cheese over bacon egg and cheese
I feel personally attacked
As a New Yorker I'll be judging your choices very heavily.
Edit: You failed the test, mister
Ham & Kielbasa are my two favorite meats. if i could have the big hams my family gets at thanksgiving every couple months, i'd be a very happy man.
Monte Cristo vs reuban is an insane first round match up and it's so unfortunate. Whoever won that match up would win the western conference for me.
Oh yeah this is the content we're all here for. Praise Lord NL for the poggest content ever.
A few of these had no wrong answer, but this man picked the right answer every. Single. Time.
He cannot be stopped.
Italian beef is just a better French Dip. It has au jus, but also giardiniera which is pickled vegetables, most notably sweet peppers.
"This looks like a work schedule" had me dying
I love meatball subs and egg salad bagels, that side of the bracket hurt me emotionally
Meatloaf sub tho. With the slices grilled.
They were too afraid to put a shredded chicken on this list.
Several months late but choosing the Cubano over the reliable Italian sub classic feels like a slap across the mouth.
bruh I ate that bologna sandwich basically every day of my childhood and then chef boyardee for dinner
Livin’ the highlife
Reported
Putting disrespect on the meatball sub, however the reasoning is understandable
*I take it back, putting that much disrespect on the egg salad sandwich is unforgivable
Nothin beats a cucumber sandwich with a big glass of warm water! 😂
there is absolutely variance in pita, you can get some incredible pita bread at the right place
I dig the falafel obsession. The grilled cheese beating stuff, that was bazaar.
22:40 the man betrays bread integrity
The content I have waited 10 years for
Rueben Sandwich is the most perfect sandwich in existence
Nothin like a nice thick ham slice during the holidays.
The Cubano is the truth. It is the best sandwich ever crafted. A good Italian Sub, is a close second. Bacon, Egg, and Chess is my go to breakfast meal. (Sidenote to NL: you can make it with fried bread much like a Grileld Cheese, that's how I make mine in the morning.)
I may not agree with some of these decisions but dammit do I respect you for the courage to put this up. *Jeremiah Johnson gif*
I also for a long time subscribed to adding banana to the PB&J, but after a couple years I grew tired of it. Now I think it's too sweet that way, which isn't what I'm looking for in a breakfast. With that said, falafel pita is the best sandwich, and nothing really comes close for me.
Alright yo, hear me out, Cubano is clear winner here. If you think about *the best* Cubano vs *the best* Falafel, then I'd argue, sure they're about neck and neck (though I'm still saying Cubano)
But you compare *the worst* Cubano (prepackaged ham, mediocre pulled pork, pickles and mustard) vs "the worst" Falafel (soggy ass mess) then *the worst* Cubano is way ahead. The Cubano has a much higher floor and that's super important.
Egg eats lone ham for dinner but not lunch? Turns out that Canada is Opposite Land, not Australia.
I know cucumber sandwich is absolutely nothing, but my mom used to "make it" for me when I was a baby and its so nostalgic for me. I am Canadian btw.
The meatball sandwich disrespect breaks my heart
YOU HAVE NEVER HAD A PO'BOY?? You , Sir, are doing yourself a major disservice
Blasting the Monte Cristo in round one... Very sad he's never had it with jam, that's the part that makes it stand out as great. There's this local place that serves it on special raspberry bread and then slathered in a homemade raspberry jam.
@6:30
I feel directly attacked
"do gen z eat ham for dinner"
are you nuts? we cant afford to eat ham for any meal
Now I really am craving a holiday spiral ham.
38:48 The hardest decisions require the strongest of wills
the ending monologue is one of the best in all of cinema
I didn't want to say it but nobody else is, so here I am: Caprese is an italian word and the e's are pronounced more like "ay" as in "say", and you pronounce both of them. Cah - pray - say. Saying it like "Capreece" as NL did is like calling a tortilla a "turtill."
It's good to know you would make the right decision with the Cubano
