The best sandwiches in America
New York Post ^ | January 9, 2017 | By Lauren Rothman

When it comes to snacking, meal times and everything in between, there’s one thing Americans can all agree on: the sandwich is king. Whether these stacked-bread behemoths are served up at the best breakfast restaurants in America, the best BBQ restaurants in America or are some of the secret menu items across America, we can’t get enough bacon-egg-and-cheeses, beef briskets, Italian subs, classic pastrami on rye bread or spicy pork banh mi. So, the next time the craving strikes, hit up these spots to indulge in some of the best sandwiches in America.

1. Pastrami at Katz’s Delicatessen in New York, NY.

Don’t we all feel like Meg Ryan in “When Harry Met Sally” when eating one of these babies? Perhaps the most classic sandwich in America, Katz’s juicy, sliced-to-order pastrami has been perfected over more than a century, since back in 1888 when the classic Lower East Side deli was founded. Slathered with mustard, perched on chewy rye and accompanied by sour pickles, this is a NYC must-eat. $19.95 . .

Katz is an awesome pastrami sandwich.

Expensive but worth it.

Growing up (and occasionally still today), I enjoyed cheese and jelly. People thought I was making it up or trying to be gross...but that was my go to sandwich.

Almost all from the east coast or the west coast. That’s OK. We don’t want them chowing down on all our good food here in flyover country.

I'm surprised that there isn't more discussion of fried bologna sandwich variants. Fried bologna sandwiches are commonly found in "flyover country."

Just my opinion, but the key to an excellent sandwich is the bread / meat and cheese ratio.

Just enough bread to keep the sandwich together, but not too much where it overwhelms the main part of the sandwich.

MY hamburgers.

Cooked on a flat-top griddle on top of my Weber grill.

I grind my own meat, bake the buns and enjoy each step of the process.

On a good day I’ll put my smoked brisket/pork shoulder/pork loin up against anyone’s. Get the right bread and the sandwich will be as good as anyone’s.

Just don’t catch me on a bad day.

Watch some Irish people sampling American foods. Search “Irish taste test” or “Irish try” on youtube.
Mostly they couldn’t relate to southern, to seafood, or to cauliflower burgers. But they adore meat.

They missed one. A little known gem is the Debris Sandwich from Mother’s in New Orleans. They have a fine sliced roast beef sandwich. The Debris Sandwich is made from the “junk” that falls into the au jous when slicing the beef. OMG is it the messiest most goodest thing I’ve ever eaten. Laissez les bon temps roulez!

This was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had, but it was for a limited time only.
