A Black Velvet Painting of The King, Elvis. Often he is sitting right next to The Virgin Mary and Jesus. Kitsch in the extreme.

A delicious and messy sandwich supposedly loved by The King himself, and undoubtedly contributed to his death. When you visit Graceland, there's even one sitting in the kitchen. They can be made hot or cold, but either way they're kind of hard on your heart. And they're kind of vegetarian! (If you don't mind mayo...)

Ingredients

Procedure

Making a cold velvet Elvis is easy: spread the peanut butter and mayonnaise on the bread, and put the banana between them. Viola!

Now, making it hot is the way to do it. First, make the sandwich like you normally would. Then, put a little butter in a pan and grill the sandwich until the bread is toasted. Be warned, the peanut butter is going to melt and the whole thing we be very messy. Now sit back and enjoy.

I used to have these all the time as a kid, as I was a huge Elvis fan. I didn't think any restaurants made them until I visited the Deli Haus in Boston, which I highly recommend you visit. Delicious!
