There is a distinct difference in the sauce used to make Big Boy's Slim Jim sandwich.. the Elias Brother's chain (in the midwest) uses tartar sauce, and Bob's Big Boys out west use a type of 1000-Island.. since moving from Michigan to Florida, I had to figure out how to duplicate that awesome sandwich, and I did it. The key is this tartar sauce, which is kind of silly, because how many ways can you make tartar sauce, lol.. Well one day when I was back in Michigan for a visit, I bought a jar of their famous tartar to bring home with me, and made a simple clone from the ingredients listed on the jar. This is perfect. Now I can have Slim Jims whenever.. Oh! Today was whenever - LOL!!
Ingredients:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dill pickle relish
1 tablespoon pickle juice
Directions:
1. Combine all, allow flavors to blend several hours.
2. Note: To make the wonderful Slim Jim sandwich (basically a ham/swiss, but the technique is kind of important, as is the combination of sauce and ingredients) see The slim Jim Sandwich. Big Boy grills their sandwiches to toast the buns. . I grill them on the George Foreman thing.
