**88** Balance, out of 100

The seven flavor axes of the whole sandwich, each summed across its layers. The shaded ring is the catalog's middle 80%; the small number under each axis is where this sandwich falls in the catalog. A shape that sits inside the ring is in the range most sandwiches live in; a spike past it is where this one stands apart.

## What each layer brings

| Layer                                              | Role    | Flavor and texture                  | Points    |
| -------------------------------------------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------- | --------- |
| kaiser roll                                        | bread   | soft crusty                         | the frame |
| beer-braised pulled porkscored as Pork             | protein | fat 4 umami 4 juicy chewy tender    | **+18**   |
| house-made coleslaw (house-made)scored as Coleslaw | bulk    | acid 2 fat 2 crunchy creamy dressed | **+19**   |

Points: what the Sandwich Score would lose if that one layer were left out, everything else the same. A negative number means the sandwich scores higher without it. Flavor runs 0 to 5 on each axis.

## Pairings

- **Pork + Coleslaw**: pulled pork wants slaw's cold vinegar snap
