  • Thinly Sliced Roast Beef
  • Smoked Turkey or Chicken Breast
  • Salami or Pepperoni
  • Provolone or Swiss Cheese
  • Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • Pepper Jack Cheese (Optional)
  • Mayonnaise
  • Dijon Mustard
  • "Mystery Machine Sauce" (1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon ketchup, 1 tablespoon sweet relish, 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, pinch of paprika)
  • Crisp Lettuce (Iceberg or Romaine)
  • Ripe Tomato (sliced thinly)
  • Dill Pickle Slices
  • Red Onion (Optional, very thinly sliced)
  • Potato Chips (Plain or BBQ)
  • Long Toothpicks or Skewers

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Slice your tomatoes, onions, and pickles. Wash and thoroughly dry your lettuce. Make sure your cheeses are ready to go and your meats are separated for easy layering. If you're making the 'Mystery Machine Sauce,' whisk together about 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon ketchup, 1 tablespoon sweet relish, 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of paprika in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
  2. Toast the Bread (Optional, but Recommended): Lightly toast your bread slices for extra stability and delightful texture. You'll need at least three slices per sandwich for a proper towering creation.
  3. First Layer – The Foundation: Take your first slice of toasted bread. Spread a generous layer of classic mayonnaise on one side.
  4. Meat & Cheese Power Layer: On top of the mayo, arrange a generous portion of your thinly sliced roast beef. Next, add a layer of your provolone or Swiss cheese.
  5. Second Layer – The Core: Place your second slice of toasted bread gently on top of the cheese. Spread a liberal amount of your 'Mystery Machine Sauce' on this slice.
  6. More Meats & Cheese: On the 'Mystery Machine Sauce' layer, pile on your smoked turkey or chicken breast, followed by a few slices of salami or pepperoni. Then, add a layer of sharp cheddar cheese (and pepper jack if you're using it!).
  7. Third Layer – The Veggie Deck: Carefully place your third slice of toasted bread on top of the cheese. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on this slice.
  8. Freshness & Crunch: Layer your crisp lettuce, followed by thin slices of ripe tomato, dill pickle slices, and finally, your thinly sliced red onion (if using).
  9. The 'Shaggy & Scooby' Secret: Gently crush a handful of potato chips directly over the vegetable layer.
  10. The Grand Finale: Place your final slice of toasted bread on top. You can spread a little more mayo or 'Mystery Machine Sauce' on the underside of this top slice if you wish.
  11. Compress & Secure: Gently press down on your towering sandwich to compress the layers. Insert two or three long toothpicks or skewers through the sandwich to hold everything together.
  12. Slice & Serve: Using a sharp, serrated knife, carefully slice your Scooby Doo Sandwich diagonally, from corner to corner.
