| So, after a few beers and hanging out
with most of Ian's bandmates, I was back home and preparing for a
BBQ among friends. As topics swirled back and forth, Ian's
sandwich became the topic and I started to wonder what a sandwich
named after me would be. My housemate Matt said, "well,
obviously, it'd be some sort of hot dog." I agreed, and
thought it had to be better than that. "One topped with
something more white trash, like, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese."
And with that, the idea of the Michael Schliefke sandwich was
born.
The idea continued to evolve over the next couple of days, and
the hot dog was replaced with a suggestion of my friend Chuck to use kielbasa, which has always been one of
my favorites. So, after a trip to HEB, I was good to go.
I cooked up the ingredients, deciding to cut the kielbasa into chips
rather than serve it sausage style. Once the macaroni and
cheese was ready, I topped off a generous portion of kielbasa with a
generous portion of macaroni.
In my mind, there really wasn't any way that this could go awry.
Once I saw the ingredients all come together, I was in love. I
took a bite, and immediately felt a rush of goodness overcome my
soul. Perhaps this is what I've been searching for my whole
life.
Jesse, the independent arbiter, bit into his sandwich and
wholeheartedly agreed with my findings, and complimented me on a
fine sandwich.
I still think I could use some tinkering, perhaps toasting the
whole sandwich adding a slight crispness to the whole affair, but
overall, I'm proud to serve up the sandwich named after me.
Now I just need to become famous enough to warrant some lucky
establishment to cook one for their patrons.

If Ian Shults can have a sandwich named after him, why can't I?
