I really, really, really despise mayo. I consider it to be right up there with nuclear weapons, terrorism, and North Korea as one of the worse creations in the history of mankind.
As for my sandwich, it was a beast. Start with a thick sandwich roll, cut in half. Several slices of provolone go on the top half, then both sides go in the oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese and get everything nice and toasty. Then, slather the bottom half with a liberal amount of creamy blue cheese, and add a little bit of lettuce and tomato. Now comes the main event - buffalo chicken strips. These are standard-issue chicken fingers freshly deep-fried (I work at a deli-type eatery and we had a lot of fried and grilled foods too), and tossed in a custom-blended buffalo sauce. The sauce is butterier than a standard hot sauce (to give it more body), and has extras like horseradish, garlic and onion powder, and red pepper flakes, to make it hearty and add complexity to the flavor. After those are fried, tossed, and put on the sandwich, on comes the ingredient that brings the whole thing together: two well-done deep-fried beer-battered onion rings. They've gotta be well-done so they hold their own against the massive flavor of the rest of the sandwich, and provide an awesome crunch. All told, this sandwich was about six inches of heaven.
I brought the sandwich out to the main shopping area to sit down and eat it, and one of my co-workers fell over laughing. A customer at the register, a middle-aged man, got this look on his face like he'd just seen a beautiful naked woman, and said (and I quote): "holy mary mother of God, that is the most amazing fucking sandwich I have ever seen in my life". The local dirt-poor kids who always hang out in the store because they have nothing better to do with their lives just stared as I devoured this masterpiece, and begged me to make them one sometime. I told them there weren't enough soda cans lying in garbage bins around the entire city to earn them enough money to afford a sandwich like the one I made.
Sorry, I failed to specify - the sandwich was six inches high, not long. It was a round, hamburger-sized bun because it was lunchtime, and this sandwich was so unbelievably rich that there's no way I could have put it away in one go if it were any bigger.

It was pretty tasty.
