I miss Chihuahua sandwiches from the drive-in in Lamesa. I still have family in the area. I was reminiscing about old times. I too call my grandma "Nanny". Love your blog.
I once saw this Chihuahua Sandwich featured on "Texas Country Reporter" over 20 years ago and I've been intrigued by it ever since. I wish I could sink my teeth into one of these sandwiches. If only Lamesa weren't so out-of-the-way from San Antonio... I remember the cabbage and pimento cheese ingredients, but it's been a long time and I thought it was served in something like a pita pocket. Have you tried both the sandwich and the recipe? Thank you for posting the recipe, since I doubt I'll ever make it to the Skyvue Drive-In or Lamesa.
P.S. Will I need Alka-Seltzer after I eat one of these things?
