Jesus Chris himself comes down from on high and asks for each of you to bring forth the best sandwich from your state*. By best, he means not only the best tasting but the one that most represents where you’re from. What do you bring forth?
fureners can participate as well.
From IL, italian beef sandwich, wet, with giardinera.
Go to any good deli in North Jersey and get a sub - a good Italian one with ham, provolone, salami, tomatoes, hot peppers, lettuce, and wine and vinegar dressing - and that’s the best shit you will ever have.
I could have guessed it was the pig ear sandwich from Mississippi. Not to bad but by far not my favorite. Still if you are going to try one, the Big Apple Inn is the beginning and the end (the sausage is better), although you may die getting to it with the current state of the neighborhood its in.

Nothing like it in the world.
All Subways should burn, FYI. [/quote]
Sub Place Better in Metuchen was the best subs I had in Jersey.
I’m originally from south jersey (different state than north jersey) and yellow submarine cheesesteaks are better than anything you can find in philly.
Honorable mention is primo hoaige’s whacked - chicken cutlet, sharp provalone, pesto, and bruschetta.
Currently live in California and they can’t make sandwiches for shit here.

Rubbish. Runza started in Nebraska, not Kansas. Best sandwich in Kansas is the Z-Man from Joe’s KC barbeque, fka Oklahoma Joe’s.[/quote]
You beat me to it. Runza, for one, is garbage and, like you said, is not even from Kansas. The only Runza I’ve ever seen was in Lawrence, KS. The fact that KS and MO don’t have some sort of BBQ sandwich makes that list stupid.

That’s a hell of a name. I’ll have to try it out next time I’m down there.
PA - Primanti Bros, basically a sandwich w/ french fries on it… I actually don’t think they’re that great, but fairly unique to western PA
MO (St. Louis) - St. Paul (basically egg foo young on white bread w/ mayo), Fried Brains (an artifact of the slaughterhouse days… increasingly harder to find) … never even heard of a gerber open face
LA - Soft Shell crab po’ boy
I’m surprised OH doesn’t have something w/ chili on it… but my exposure is rather limited to cinci
