It’s difficult to overemphasize the excellence of a good Monte Cristo. It’s the perfect balance of flavors, textures, and aesthetics. The salty ham, rich cheese, and sweet jam make for the ultimate pub sandwich.
The addition of a crunchy coating and wild game elevates the experience even further. I used venison for this dish, but it’d also work with ham from a bear or hog. You can create your ham with Steven Rinella’s recipe in the “MeatEater Fish and Game Cookbook” or Danielle Prewett’s recipe on our website.
