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 . .

The Big Daddy (at Big Daddy E’s in Chino Valley, AZ... currently closed due to rebuild after a fire :( )

This reminded me of something my Father once said.
He was on a troop train in WWII and it was stopped in Kansas City. He said a Black guy was pushing a cart beside the train selling pork sandwiches to the troops out the windows.
Daddy bought one and said it was the best sandwich he ever had. He probably was hungry too.
Bologna, iceberg lettuce, Miracle Whip on white bread. Game, set and match.
Mother’s is the best.
Barbecue bologna is popular here where I live. Tube bologna is cut into one-inch slices then cooked on the grill. Barbecue sauce is optional. We also have the Slug Burger which is a patty made from soy and cracker crumbs then fried in hamburger grease and put on a bun with mustard and dill pickle. These dishes go back to the Depression.

New Orleans Po’Boys most notably Roast Beef or oyster po’boys. Russel’s Short Stop has some good ones, but there are many others as well.

Is that you, Elvis?
...discovered fried bologna long time ago ( on rye) with spicy mustard
Braunschweiger, mayo (Best Foods or Heilmans) on white bread.
Uh, somebody’s travels are a little revealing. Austin, New Orleans and Miami are the only southern locales. The rest are typical fare for limited northeasterners who are apparently afraid they’ll fall off the edge of the earth if they go into, for them, uncharted territory. Aiiiyeee, there they be dragons, lol.
Katz is an awesome pastrami sandwich...
Their matzo ball soup is excellent, as well.
