Grilled Veggie Spicy BBQ Philly Cheese Sandwiches

Grilled Veggie Spicy BBQ Philly Cheese Sandwiches



Serves 2

Ingredients:
1 yellow onion (large slices)
1 green bell pepper (large slices)
1 package of small mushrooms (bases removed and uncut)
1 french roll
Spicy pepper jack cheese
Spicy BBQ sauce (preferably Famous Dave’s Devil Spit)
Tin foil

Directions:
Preheat BBQ to medium-low heat.
Place the onion slices, bell pepper slices, and mushrooms directly on the grill. Grill for about 10 minutes, or until the veggies are soft and have burn marks. Flip half way through. Sprinkle spices on the veggies (e.g. garlic salt, pepper, Tony Chachere’s, cumin, ground cayenne pepper).
When veggies are soft, place them in the tin foil, fashioned into a bowl, on the grill. Pour in a liberal amount of BBQ sauce. Add the cheese. Let this mixture boil in the sauce for about ten minutes. During this time, slice the bread into sandwich sized sections, and cut down the middle. Toast on the grill for a few minutes.
Fill the bread with the piping hot veggie and BBQ sauce mix. Spoon out the remaining sauce and cheese detritus from the tin foil bowl on top of the sandwiches.

Pairing:
Goes well with an ice-cold Point the Way IPA by Golden Road Brewery and The Adventures of the Black Girl in Her Search for God by George Bernard Shaw.

Review of The Adventures of the Black Girl in Her Search for God:
Truly magnificent. Shaw provides one of the best nonpartisan views of religion, metaphysics, and materialism. His "black girl" follows the intellectual evolution of God, starting with the brutish and sadistic genocidal God of Noah, to the confusingly totalitarian God of Job, through the improved but misunderstood Jesus, and culminating in her aiding of Voltaire's contemplative garden. I'm a little disappointing in myself for not immediately recognition the old man in the garden as Voltaire. The last line of Voltaire's magnum opus Candide reads, "But we must cultivate our garden." This after Candide's arduous voyage replete with more torment than one man should ever suffer.
  Shaw's epilogue is a must read for Christians and atheists alike. It almost perfectly matches the views of Robert Wright in The Evolution of God. Realizing this, I searched the index of Wright's book, and surprisingly found no references to Bernard Shaw. I'd love to know if Wright had read this piece by the great playwright.
  This is one of a few books that has really forced me to question my ideals, and made me think in new ways; just as Robert Wright has.
