wishful thinkin' bump

that's true alot of small-town goodness relies on experience ....and its sad so many similar places around Wilkes have been out sourced

You know, I think the sandwich was just part of the experience. Part of it was going into a place where your parents and grandparents had went when they were your age. Part of it was seeing two honest to goodness down to earth warm hearted people like the Cullers. Im glad for everytime I went into that store and it's a shame that it's not there anymore, but nothing good lasts forever.

Does anyone know what Clegg is up to?

goodluck bump

p.s. my favorite purchase was the spicy cheese he had in the deli

stating sandwiches don't require recipes just shows what a lack of culinary class some of you quick to respond idiots have ....
Cullers' was a nice slice of Wilkes County history and everything about him from sandwiches , to selection , to suggestion was always a wonderful experience ....that's just my opinion i am certain if you maintain determination that recipe might just pop up for you ....
as far as the numerous arrogant comments go i guess some of you missed that age old quote about arrogance and ignorance being a shared field ..
attention to detail is something that's fell to the side around this place over the years
..and it is good2know some people do still appreciate it !

givemeabreakalready,

Clegg Culler didn't have a restaurant, he owned a grocery store here on Main Street in Wilkesboro. In my opinion he had the best steaks and wine selection during his time.

The first store I remember him having there on Main Street in Wilkesboro is in the building in front of the police station. The last store I remember him having on Main Street in Wilkesboro was in the building where the auction place is now.

It just wasnt a sandwich, it was probably the best sandwich you could get around here. It was layered so thick with meats and cheese, it would have made Dagwood Bumstead smile.

a recipe? get real its a sandwisch

Let's start small and work our way up - maybe a recipe for grilled cheese?

Why not ask him

who was clegg and what restaurant did he run?<---- not from here.

Bump

I think the sandwich had pastrami or roast beef on it .To me the best thing was their homemade chicken salad and homemade pimento cheese. Clegg and Dessie were good people. I saw Clegg yesterday at Lowes Foods on 18 and he looked like the same old Clegg.

Try Oakwoods Grocery

Bump

Not a recipe here, but a fond memory.... I remember the Cleggwich with thinly sliced ham, turkey, roast beef, mild salami, and cheddar cheese (off the wheel). He would add regular, or spicy mustard, and mayo if you wanted. Normal was on white bread but he also had rye or wheat with hoagie buns in the later years.
I miss their steaks also!

Real nice.

the secret was in the c*ckroaches ... biggest muthers in town
