I seem to have pretty good luck with PB&H sandwiches. In fact, I haven't really used any energy gels since I started using them. I noticed with gels I was downing them like crazy and getting a quick boost that would die. I think the bread provides a little longer lasting energy, holds the honey and lets it absorb just a little slower. Plus the PB has some protein, around 5g per sandwich, which is essential for endurance activities and really important for recovery.

Plus the bread provides a convenient carrier. As Josh demonstrates below, carrying peanut butter in a bag is an easy way to transport it. Eating it from said bag is an interesting proposition.
