Montreal smoked meat sandwich, Canada

Smoked meat sandwiches, seen here at Schwartz's deli in Montreal, are piled high with smoked beef brisket.

Carnivores say oui to this seriously stacked sandwich from Quebec made with smoked beef brisket layered between slices of light rye bread and drizzled with tangy yellow mustard.

The best briskets used in a true Montreal smoked meat sandwich are said to soak for up to two weeks in brine and savory aromatics such as coriander, peppercorn and garlic before being smoked and hand-sliced to go down in eternal sandwich glory.
