Yeah, the Times had a photo, too. We'd probably think of it as
griddle-fried ham or Canadian Bacon on a roll.

They did mention using "streaky bacon". Isn't that "American" bacon?
<<< I'm sure you can get a corned beef sandwich in
the UK, but it probably isn't the monstrosity you routinely get at
Katz's Deli. I'm not sure where, in the meat-to-bread ratio, a bacon
butty falls. >>>
Why are you calling this a "monstrosity"? I thought there was only
two Katz' delis. The original one here in Austin and one his son
opened up in Houston. They've never sounded like a chain, although
they do talk a lot about their food being New York style. Is there a
NY Katz's deli the one here is based on?
And I like the Katz' deli corned beef sandwich, although I like their
Rueben even better.
