Ingredients Needed: Lots of sandwiches to eat and potentially complain about. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Josh the type of guy to blabber 10 minutes straight about a Sandwhichs Greatness just to give it a flat 8.
He's the Anthony Fantano of sandwiches
Yup. And if everything's just an 8, why not use a different scale entirely?
Or talk about how ok it is then give it a 7.8
@@waywardmindbecause he thinks that it makes him edgy.
Some of yall are just hatin' lol
Papa is the type of guy to try every food at a party and rate them.
😂😂😂
Good one!
Who doesn't?
you don't?
Heyyy My parents said if I hit 3k, they'd buy me a professional camera for recording! Pls guys I'm literally begging you!!...❤❤😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻
Guys, Angelo's is the real deal in America, its perhaps one of the top 20 best restaurants in the US... You may think why? Easy: its got a Philly Steak Sandwich 9.5 from Josh and a Pizza 9.1 from Dave Portnoy. Best of the best under one roof: best pizza, best sandwich... Gotta visit Angelos for sure!
Nothing in America is the real deal, no matter how many sandwich or italian restaurants I go to, theyre all 20th generation American Italians. The paninos dont even have melanzane or bomba, really????
Dave Portnoy doesn't know anything about food.
@@MrJustliketht We get it, you went to Italy once and you've made it your identity. Depending on the city you go to, your food will vary. Don't act like a tourist.
@@BuildinWings Ive been to Italy a few times, one thing I've noticed is Montreal keeps it authentic. Even Toronto I noticed is very Americanized with its Italian food.
@@MrJustliketht Depending on where you went in Italy, your pizza was WILDLY different. So it's weird to say one place keeps it authentic. Authentic to where? Sicilian foods aren't the same as Venitian.
I am so happy that you went to Angelo’s. I honestly didn’t think it would make it in the tops because everyone I ask here in Philly hasn’t mentioned it. My wife and I travel for work and try all kinds of food. We have been in Philly for 3 months now and when we first tried that sandwich we had the same reaction. It’s unreal.
I'm going to try Angelo's. But if you're traveling for work, head on over to Curly's Comfort Food in Levittown, PA. AMAZING cheesesteaks. And just get one between the two of you. One is WAY too much for one person!
Their pizza is also top tier
I know a lot of people here are giving you a hard time, but I have actually been to about 90% of the restaurants you went to around the country and I agree with your assessment on most of the food. Just because the place is "OG" doesn't mean that it's better than the other guys.
Yea, most people prefer the food and restaurants they grew up with. People have to be open minded
I thought "OG' meant "other guys"?
@@rickyrosario9109 Not sure if this is a joke I don't get but OG means "original gangster".
@@MonkeyMcMonkey that is correct. Just meant to say that "original" places aren't always the greatest
@@TravelGeeq I was responding to the guy above who didn't know what OG meant :) I agree with you definitely, nostalgia bias etc.
Angelo's have been getting a lot of raves for one reason: _they make their own bread for the sandwich_ . This is unlike many other cheesesteak places in Philadelphia, which uses the Amoroso Bakery roll.
(In fact, Angelo's have been getting a lot of traffic not only for their outstanding cheesesteak sandwich, but also (arguably) the best pizza in Philadelphia, a pizza that can compare with the best in New York City.)
Get outta here! That's a Sarcone's roll. They are literally NEXT DOOR to Sarcone's, the best hoagie/steak roll in the World!
I'm so tired of the angelos glazing
@@tomodda1 also there are a lot of places in philly that use sarcone's stuff.
Most of the best places in Philly use better rolls than Amoroso. Philly has a lot of good bakeries.
As someone who spends a lot of time in NYC and Philly I will say that the pizza doesn’t quite stand up to NYC (idc what portnoy says) but the cheesesteak is as advertised. Outstanding.
The way I screamed when you said Angelo’s! I knew it’d be that. Philly forever; Go Birds 💚
Birds are just the best. :)
What a great episode! All the sandwiches look so good, and Respect for giving love to the mom and pop shops! ❤
And here I thought Nebraska would be forgotten since not many people talk about it. Thank you for visiting Nebraska. Glad you like your Reuben. 😊
What other food is popular in Omaha?
I started researching Nebraska because of Terence Crawford 😂. Going to visit this summer
I really, really like that you didn’t idolize Katz deli and criticized it from an unbiased standpoint. From what I’ve seen, their customer service is so oddly rude and snood. I don’t understand how that can appeal to anyone. If you’re paying that much for a sandwich, you should be treated so much better. Having to show your drivers license to get a sandwich is madness.
I like you man.
$35...I bought an entire brisket for that on closeout a month back. That's a lot of sandwiches....
It's a shame he went to Katz at all when there are so many other great Jewish delis in NYC. That's like judging Philly's cheesesteaks by going to Geno's.
I mean I was there 3 weeks ago, didn't wait longer than 10 mins for my reuben, the guy serving me wasn't talking but not rude, checkout dude was nice as hell... no complaints. Also a reuben was like 27$ before tax and tip
You pay $5 to wait in line and $10 for the name Katz
Unbiased?
Dude was pissed about the customer interaction and took it out on the rating 😂
Omaha!!! My hometown! Love the Crecent Moon Rueben! Awesome, thanks for stopping by, it's not easy to get people here, lol.
I am very passionate about cooking and sandwiches are the food I cannot stop loving in my life. If you also like sandwiches the most like me, please like to share with me.
Like begging over enjoying sandwiches is wild
Make sure you buys melanzane and bomba. Do it right, not like these American 20th generation Italian ppl.
It wasn’t like begging, and I could tell, you are just used to like beggers
As a Nebraska boy, I’m so glad that you went here for Rueben’s. We do not get enough credit.
GBR
I had no idea rubens were invented in Nebraska.
dude i live in bellevue and i was so genuinely shocked to see omaha and i first i was like aint no damn way hes about to eat a runza, but no thank god it was the rueben. Im happy that we had the best rueben of the ones he tried.
@bubalubagus7037 Ha! The runza came immediately to my mind as well. I kept thinking, "Yeah, runzas are pretty good, but one of the best sandwiches in the country? Sorry, but no."
So when the Ruben was announced, I breathed a sigh of relief. Yeah, it's certainly one of America's finest sandwiches. Thanks Nebraska!
Where is Nebraska?
Josh, I have started using your website almost weekly! The layout with the recipes and videos is awesome. Not to mention there isn’t a 40 paragraph disposition or 10 pip up adds for every recipe. Great job.
Disposition? Don't think you know what word you're trying to use, yung soft head
Kudos to you & your team for doing research on the good spots!!!
My boyfriend bought me both your books for Mother’s Day .
He thought I was crying happy tears but he didn’t know how awesome and simple the dedication was . But on behalf of my family , we love you !
Homeboy out there improving peoples lives and shit.....
You should take a step back and realize how unhealthy your parasocial relationship with an entertainer is.
@@CaptainSkuzzy Your weird, she was just showing appreciation to this creator she likes. I cant tell if your just being a troll or not, but if your not stop judging people and let them enjoy themselves man.
@@CaptainSkuzzy you might wanna read about what parasocial relationship is lil bro
Is your boyfriend your son?
Angelo's is LEGIT.
They're pizza is also rated 9.1 by Portnoy. They know what their doing.
As opposed to your control of grammar...
@@randyschwagginslmao aye but he’s rite tho
they're doing*
You got your theirs and they‘res Mixed up man
portnoy doesn’t know shit about food, he just likes his pizza a specific kind of way
And if you consider the Mr beef was effectively special order with no other orders happening at the time and no external pressures so the guy could focus on making it best he possibly could, it's amazing anything could beat it.
I just love watching your videos!!
I can definitely attest to the American sandwich as a foreigner. You have mastered the technique of sandwiching meat between two pieces of bread. There is a great deal of creativity, diversity, and quality-consciousness.
This genuinely made me laugh haha
everyone is american ;)
@@bigbakaboon Americans are American. Don't insult or disregard foreigners by calling them Americans against their will, and don't disregard the sanctity of American citizenship by saying that anyone who isn't a legal American citizen is American, please
My favorite sandwich is a Bahn Mi, but I don’t have a specific place that I think does it best, I just think that flavors are the most balanced with a little pickled veggies.
Absolutely
GIve me a Bahn MI over one of those soggy 'Italian' beefs any day
Funnily enough, Philly is also a hotspot for Vietnamese cuisine in America, and I'd argue one of the best places outside Vietnam to get a really good, mind blowing bahn mi. Probably the third most iconic sandwich in Philly after the cheesesteak and the roast pork
You just made me write that down. I've never heard of that sandwich before but it looks really good.
I do love bahn mi's, but I get it--American sandwiches not Vietnamese.
Someone give Joshua a packet of salt for Christ's sake.
Urban legend has it that the Italian Beef started out as wedding food during the Great Depression. When you soak the bread in the au jus, it satisfies like meat. Wet is thus the proper way to eat this sandwich.
The best way to enjoy this sandwich is to order it with a side salad instead of fries. Eat the sandwich (wet with peppers of your choice) directly over the salad. Whatever falls into the salad will make it taste better.
Portillos got sold to a corporation that reduced portion sizes. Don't go there for Italian beef.
It's normal for sweet peppers to be mushy. They are cooked in the same au jus as the beef.
Thank you AI
Portillos is till very good, at least in Chicago. It might have a slight drop in quality though I think portions is the bigger issue with it being corporate.
As someone who lives in south jersey and can easily drive or take the train to Philly I love that Angelo’s won, best cheesesteaks and pizzas in Philly for sure. For anyone that wants an alternative, Woodrow’s sandwich shop has my other favorite cheesesteak with the cherry pepper mayo they use. They also have a amazing cubano
I wanna get over to lillo's so badly.
@@HiddenUsername1Lillo’s is very, very good. Just be aware it’s super garlicky. They use a garlic aoli, a lot of my friends don’t like it for that reason, but I think it’s up there with one of the bests I’ve ever had.
I would also recommend Donkey’s place in Camden one of the fewest places that can hang with Angelo’s pizzeria and beat the rest. Anthony Bourdain was correct about the best cheesesteaks until Angelo’s pizzeria
Donkeys Too in Medford is phenomenal. With the spicy ketchup and seasoned fries too
As a native New Yorker - Katz is overhyped and over priced. I'm so glad you felt the same. I never understood the hype. I gave it 3 chances and was underwhelmed - and the service is also trash.
Where's your favorite Reuben then? I just hit my local spot, Sarge's. It's pretty damn good.
@@DannoHung S&P. Classic or their Flat Iron Delight - swaps sauerkraut for coleslaw. It's amazing. Give them a try.
My family is native New Yorker and we enjoy it. Also, the workers are always super nice and do things like sharing samples while building my sandwich. But theres another spot that’s a bit better and preferred.
@@joshwertheim What spot?
I don't think katz is overrated. But what isnt good is their corned beef. I don't get why it's so much worse than their pastrami. I experienced the same as josh, flavorless and dry beef. Then the pastrami was fatty, salty, juicy and amazing. Pastrami was worth every penny.
Hey, I ran into you in Tampa at Columbia restaurant! Thanks for chatting with me while we waited for our food. Turns out I also ended up at La Segunda the next day, and totally agree with everything you said.
Love to see Chicago italian beef making it here too, a personal favorite.
Can't' wait to try all the others. Keep up the great work!
Only ever been to Katz's out of all of these, but I loved their pastrami sandwich. Wait was pretty short and while pricey, it felt authentic and super tasty. Easily best and most interesting thing I had while in NYC.
As a New Yorker, Katz deli is a tourist trap. I will not pay $26 for a damn sandwich. If it spiked up to $35, it just solidifies why I wouldn't go back. We got some Italian heroes a fraction of the price for 2x the size and quality. Chopped cheese, Jewish deli meat sandwiches are not justified. You're the first guy in any media I've seen that gives an accurate depiction of Katz Deli.
With the rent as is erry bodega be charging $20 for a grilled cheese
He said $35 and my chest started to hurt. I could never.
35 is actually insanity
It’s a Jewish deli what do you expect
@@ianstrom7210 is expensive cuz need lots of workers since they can’t or won’t do work themselves.
This makes my heart so happy!!! I'm happy to respect other sandwiches and thank you for calling out the best places to go get my other favorite sandwiches but I'm so happy you loved our cheesesteak!!! I'll pop on over to Angelo's right now!! I'm embarrassed to say I've never been, I thought John's was the best. Thank you for putting in the legwork! I trust your opinion above most others.
Let us know how it is 😂
How was it??? :D
Their italian hoagies are awesome too. Pizza is no slouch either! All about the bread, and they got it.
Truly a great sandwich video. I want to visit all these places now.
I've never understood breaded shrimp on a sandwich. I tried a po boy when I was in NOLA, but I wasn't at all impressed. I'm gobsmacked that the NOLA Muffaletta wasn't on the list! Now THAT'S a sandwich!! The best one I've ever had!
The winner is absolutely no surprise to me, and I’m so here for it. Fuckin deserved
Best part is Angelo’s also has some of the best pizza in the country as well
i'm glad your comment doesn't spoil the video, well done
1000% as a Philly native I was so worried it wasn’t going to come up. Recommend cooper sharp cheese to anyone reading. That would have made it a 9.7
Let’s judge a cheesesteak with mayo, something majority of people would never put on a cheesesteak. Why not judge a Ruben with bbq sauce? While I don’t disagree with Angelo’s winning, Josh should have consulted as to what most people actually would order. Absolutely should have ordered with cooper sharp, w/ or w/o onions, that’s it.
Not every steak shop offers cooper sharp. He went with something all 3 spots had. Personally, I'd never put sharp prov on a steak. American or mild prov is the way.@@mikeymezer
What can i say, As an Aussie visiting the USA next year A Reuben at Katz's was on the list but seeing as though I am also visiting a mate working in Omaha Nebraska and its where its from my mind has been changed. Looking forward to visiting the Crescent Moon ..Thanks for this video
Omaha's got an incredible restaurant scene. The Blackstone neighborhood that Crescent Moon is in alone has some great choices. If you like sushi, check out Yoshitomo while you're here. Nebraska is landlocked but it is somehow among the heaviest hitters of sushi in the US. Block 16, Dirty Birds, Boiler Room, and Centi are all worth looking up as are so many more. Hope you enjoy your trip!
You'll like it. It also has a huge selection of beer.
For some reason your videos have not been popping up in my recommendations on TH-cam. This is the first one I have seen from you in a while and wow you have really gone hardcore on your diet. Looking good man!
When it's a great sammie, everyone wins.
Guy's is the shit, I eat lunch there as often as I can. The chicken special is a sleeper hit for me, because getting back to work after a fried poboy ain't alway easy.
Im salty he shouted out Guys lol. That is my spot. But they deserve all the love for sure!!
It is now on my list
I used to live a few blocks from Guy's. Them and Adams Street Grocery were my favorite poboys
Love this new concept/series. Would love more
That bread at Angelos! Damn it looked so good!
And that first Cubano had me drooling too.
The true GOAT!!! Angelo's not a surprise!
Made reubens one time and realized we didn’t have any sauerkraut. We used kimchi instead.
Definitely not for everyone but my wife refuses to eat them without kimchi now.
Worth trying once.
Sauerkraut and kimchi are essentially the same. Both are fermented cabage, it's just different bactaria and spices. Of course the flavor of both are very different. It's like they had the same idea on 2 different sides of the world.
I love kimchi so I MUST try this!
this is a scholar and gentleman move
That would work for me. They're basically both fermented cabbage, but sauerkraut is one-dimensional.
That is definitely an acceptable substitution. Right up there with using pastrami instead of corned beef.
On Chicago Italian Beef sanguiches... Al's and Portillo's started off with great products, but IMO, now they've become just another sandwich chain. Mr. Beef is very good! But there are SOoooo many others you should try... Tony's on the S. Side. Dukes, who's moved further away frome the city. Chickies in Hillside. Johnnies Beef in Elmwood Park. - To name just a few. They're all classic mom & pop shops with that old school class, moxie, style and charm.
Johnnie’s is my all time fav!! ✨
Johnnie’s and Augustinos are top notch!
johnnies in elmwood park for sure and pops in evergreen park, even Romas on the north side, theyre all way better then als, mr beef, portillos
Johnnie's is incredible. Food and experience. I have never had any use for the sweet peppers though. Hot-dipped is the way.
Johnnies is top tier
YES! angelo's is phenomenal i go everytime im in philly
Josh arguing with the deli guys over he sandwich is so New York coded I'm proud of him for absorbing our culture
bring the "but better" series back!
They pretty much did every restaurant at this point
More cooking videos. With many people feeling priced out of fast food, the time is ripe for a series teaching people how to cook for themselves.
YES YES YES
Joshua, I have always been a fan of what you do. Your craft, how you do it. The detail that goes into it. Literally for years. You just said you’re a mayo guy. I’m a mayo guy. No one I know are mayo guys not even my wife. Respect my friend.
$35 for a sandwich is ridiculous.
Getting carded for a sandwich is outright embarrassing.
It's not if people will buy it.
They're also not $35, I dunno wtf he bought. But a Reuben ain't $35 there.
Appreciate Josh giving credit to Omaha and going to Crescent Moon, literally across the street from the Blackstone hotel (now called the Cottonwood) where it was invented, to enjoy that incredible sandwich. And if you ever want to come back, the whole Blackstone neighborhood does The Great Reuben Debate every year and some of their takes and twists on the sandwich are truly amazing. Get Real Sandwiches did a Ko-Reuben this year and kimchi and gochujang thousand island changed my perception of perfection.
The fact that Angelo’s is near my work hotel (flight attendant) makes me so happy. Next time I visit from the uk i am heading there right after the flight!
pro tip: ordering is pretty fast but then you have to wait a while for the food to be ready. But there's lot's of stuff to do in the neighborhood! John's water ice a few blocks away is another philly classic, plus little italy is right down the street with cool shops and farmers market stalls. Good way to burn some time while you wait for your sandwich!
Highly recommend you get the cooper sharp cheese
The best cubano I've ever had was in a little hole in the wall shop in Barcelona, about half a kilometer from any bus stops, but well worth the walk. Served by a surly Cuban expat who seemed to resent our obviously very American presence until I started praising the food in halting Spanish, which earned me a big smile. Absolutely amazing sandwich. If you're in Barcelona, look for "El Cubano Machin."
It's an American sandwich. Did you remind him of that?
A great Mexican Torta is my favorite. Can’t wait too try some of these places though.
New subscriber 👋 Being a chef/foodie I dig it bro! Very entertaining 👍
Remember those days when Josh would say profuse thank you’s for reaching 2, 3, 4 million subs… bro. 9.18m and counting. Good for you, Josh. The hard work is paying off ♥️
Josh and I would kindly ask that you get off his d. Thank you.
I USED TO BE A FAN NOW I'M A WHOLE DAMN AIR CONDITIONING UNIT
Secks
I had to read this out load to my husband because I couldn’t stop laughing. 🫰🏻 this is the perfect way to describe.
I've seen this comment from other people. Fun stuff tho
I am having the exact opposite experience. His older videos were so much better. He’s going down a route that I have seen far too many creators fall into. Rather than just continuing to make great, solid videos, they start to change so as to chase clout.
@@Cloak1972 yh i get that i did love the 'but better' era
When I was a kid my father would bring me to Katz’s Deli. I would order a pastrami sandwich. The old guys behind the counter would slice the meat by hand. They were masters of carving. Man, they had the best sandwiches. On the table there was a covered dish with pickles, green tomatoes, etc., great pickles.
The quality of the pastrami continued to fall, especially in the 1990’s. The old master carvers were replaced with young guys who couldn’t carve meat. If you can’t carve the meat you’re not going to get a good sandwich.
Today the Clowns are living off their reputation because the Carnegie Deli and Stage Deli are gone and they are the last man standing.
Well I’m in England so we don’t have those sandwiches so I’m off to the shop right away now to buy ingredients to make one as you’ve got me soooo hungry for one!
Katz comments about the reuben are totally fair. Price and wait aside, I've always thought that their corned beef was always drier and had subpar seasoning in general, especially compared to their pastrami. There is literally no reason to get their corned beef if you can just get the pastrami.
And get carded for it
@@thatguy-thatdoesstuff4257 Haha that was crazy! What, they think someone is going to order a sandwich, and someone is find out about it using their city-wide spy network, come there with a fake ID to steal the sandwich?
Katz pastrami is the best, never had to wait more than 30 min. He must have gone on a bad day.
I prefer a Reuben with corned beef, it sucks that Katz’s corned beef is too dry. And yeah they give you way too much meat, which is probably why they charge you almost $30 for the sandwich
i made the mistake of my one time in newyork ordering the corned beef at katz, totally underwhelmed. After seeing hte prices now a days would never make a return trip.
I know the channel is about cooking but I’ve really been liking your new content reviewing other people’s food and ranking it. Great video Josh
Glad to see you knew where to correctly find the best form of the Reuben. I've had New York Deli style, and it just doesn't hold up to the way Omaha does it with everything cooked fresh and well seasoned. Crescent Moon is decent and boasts the original recipe, but it probably doesn't even make the top 5 in Omaha (kind of like Katz's in NYC where the popularity and familiarity always wins with polls, but the actual sandwich is done better elsewhere)
I was just at Parkway Tavern last weekend. That sandwich is one of the best I've had. I've lived on the coast all my life.
Love these kind of videos! I’d also love a Part 2 where you try to - but better - the winners in each city! 😊
this is such a great video. so much effort behind each videos.
I grew up three blocks from guys. It’s the best shrimp poboy in the city. Parkway is definitely not just for tourists but their roast beef and French fry poboys are the two standouts there.
Thank you for the Katz's hate, that's exactly how I felt when I went to New York City and waited all that time.
Pausing at 15:50, if Angelo’s isn’t one of these 3 I’m going to cry. Sincerely, South Philly native who’s eaten and reviewed nearly every cheesesteak in Philly, Delco and South Jersey.
Edit: YAY this made my morning! 😂
Angelo’s really is the goat, and I’ve shamelessly spent probably 40+ hours combined waiting in lines for their steaks.
Also, Cafe Carmela is a fairly close #2 btw.
I’m glad you mentioned delco and south jersey (born in delco, currently living in south jersey lol) some of the best cheesesteaks reside outside the city. LILO’s tomato pies in Hainesport, NJ is TOP TIER
Same, I waited patiently for the part about cheesesteaks to see if Angelo's was one of the places he went to. I'm not a Philly native, but it was recommended to me by a coworker who is. Hands down the best cheesesteak I have ever had.
Jersey now living in VA, I envy yall so much....I missed the days I can drive over to Philly abd grab 2 or 3 cheesesteaks from Angelo's
Was saying the same thing. If there’s no Angleos or John’s, this video is invalid. He nailed all three Philly places. Angelo’s is the GOAT, John’s is 2nd, and Delassandro’s is overrated
.
South side represent! Also funny enough, my first thought was it's definitely a cheesesteak. Second thought was it better be John's Roast Pork. My third thought was Angelo's makes cheesesteaks? Legit didn't know they were up there on the list for cheesesteaks. I had their pizza once and it was good but I honestly prefer Santucci's. But now I know better and I know what I must do next.
This are my favourite kind of videos you make!! Keep it up 🙏
I'm from Jacksonville. Been to Tampa a few times. La Segunda is the CORNERSTONE of what a Cuban sandwich is. There are many good to great variants, but they all circle around La Segunda. May it never change.
There's so many good sandwiches I'm gonna start off with the BLT after that the italian beef, Coming in a close third the French dip, Roast beef with pepper Jack, Monte Cristo,
Hot Pastrami on rye.😂
Papa the type of guy to rate foods at your grandmas funeral
Nahhhhh 🤣
probably would comment, "the food is drier than grandma".
Glad you enjoyed Angelo’s so much. There’s a reason its so beloved. Next time you’re in town, I recommend getting it with cooper sharp (local specialty) and adding peppers as well. And if you’re really feeling adventurous get their housemade Cooper Sharp Long Hot Cheese Whiz (my personal favorite)
The flashback to the music boat after the waste management was really funny
The looks alone on that Angelo’s sandwich wins it alone. It looks amazing
Just had to pause as a longtime Tampa Bay resident to say thank you for going to La Segunda. At first, I was worried you'd just go to The Columbia and I was sad, their Cuban food is really good there but it's not the spot for a to-go sandwich like that. La Segunda is the GOAT and the reason it was least voted is because it's more of a local secret than a flashy Michelin-recognized place in Miami. There are actually a bunch of other great Cuban sandwiches in Tampa, the TRUE home of the Cuban, but Segunda is the measure for sure.
Ya like Joyces on MLK. I've been getting my Cuban there since I was a small kid.
I've found the food at The Columbia is a bit overhyped. La Seguna is a treasure.
West Tampa Sandwich shop is also goated, $7 for a huge Cuban and they are all delicious
la bamba - westshore district has one of the best cubans I've had.
Been going to La Teresita's since I could walk...Their mojo roast pork is unbelievable. They are a bakery as well and make their own cuban bread that is amazing. Great price point too.
I love this style of video! More travel vids like this please 🙏🫶
YES!
Thank you for coming to Philadelphia and going to Angelo’s. And I totally agree about John’s coming in second.
As a former Philadelphian - current Austinite, I agree 100%!!! Cannot find good Philly cheese steak outside Philly. I can't explain what makes the good ones so amazing, but you were able to describe it so well!!
Had one in Seattle, found it 2 weeks before the guys shut down and moved back to Philly.
You would be wrong about that .. I agree in Philadelphia Angelo’s pizzeria is #1 but right over the bridge in Camden, NJ Donkey’s Place can hang with Angelo and better than most of the Top 10 spots in Philly. Anthony Bourdain was correct about donkey’s place
I’m from Chicago, and while I will say Al’s was much better back in the day (like prior to the pandemic), there are other spots in the city that were even better than the ones you mentioned. The best italian beef of all time was at a place called Fast Track on West Lake street. It closed during the pandemic unfortunately, but the building is still there and every true Chicagoan is heartbroken that it’s gone. There’s also D’amato’s Bakery, which is not as well known for the italian beef (I go there for their incredible italian cookies) but they have the best bread and the best quality ingredients in the city.
Very happy to see you paying a visit to the same Al’s Beef in the parking lot of my old high school on Taylor, across the street from the iconic Mario’s Italian Ice. Brings back lots of great memories ❤
Definitely needs to hit Mario's Italian Ice. But the best beef is Johnny's.
I miss fast track so much
@@CinderQueue I was looking for someone else to even MENTION JOHNNYS im disappointed he didn't go there. What he said about Al's spot on, beef great peppers meh
Go wolfpack SICP. I grew up around there and attended SICP for 2 1/2 years. There used to be la Vittori on may where they had a great cheesy beef. There's Johnny's and so many others. Chi-town gets down. Ohhh yeah I almost forgot Buona beef on Roosevelt in Berwyn😉 and carm's on Polk.
I'm a little upset that he ordered the beef with peppers. The way places prep it can vary widely. Kind of like how Johnnies doesn't have cheese.
John's Roast Pork Roast Pork Sandwich with spinach
100% agree and make sure it's with sharp provolone
Dinics with Broccoli Rabe.
The cheesesteak in Philly should be replaced with the roast pork at #1, roast beef #2 (Nick’s 20th & Jackson), and the banh mi #3
@@jasonreid9267 I wasn't a fan. Not sure it if it was the rabe or sharp prov
DiNic's is better.
I spent many years in America and now not anymore. And watching these Josh's videos makes me regret so much for not going every where to try these sandwiches... :(
clearly no voters have eaten at Zingerman's
Josh out here DUNKING on Katz
He didn't even have the pastrami.
No sandwich is worth $35
@@Jon-mo9ks Katz's pastrami is like 3 sandwiches. You go with a friend and you get one sandwich and 2 slices of bread. There's enough meat on there for 2+ sandwiches.
Bro got carded for a sandwich. Bro they can kick rocks with that bs.
@@thatguy-thatdoesstuff4257he just did it all wrong. You gotta go early and the line goes in 5 mins. They are just slicing meat. Only way to eat this is at the restaurant
As someone who loves sandwiches, this is amazing content ❤️ willing to travel for those delicious sandwiches!
The restaurant is no longer open but it was called The Silver Palm in Chicago; a converted railcar. Bourdain filmed an episode of "No Reservations" there. He ordered the Three Little Pigs sandwich which he proclaimed as the greatest sandwich in America. The sandwich is now in limbo for a restaurant to put on the menu.
Breaded pork cutlet, smoked ham, 2 strips of bacon, melted gruyere, 2 sunnyside up eggs and onion rings on a toasted bun. I had my chef make one and it was a decadent as it appeared on television.
The fact that you tried to get away from music in New Orleans is hysterical. Good luck! 😂🍌
Im so happy papa uploaded today. I've just recently subbed, and watched up until 2 years ago so far.
Would love to see a part 2. I'm from Maryland and we've got the Crabcake Sandwich, Fried Soft-shell crab sandwich, pit beef, etc. Lots of great options
But where do I go to find the best one? I'm in DC and I am craving some crabcakes.
@@Andrew-jv7tc It'll be a Hike, but Koco's Pub up in Baltimore is legit.
There’s nothing like a well seasoned soft shell crab sandwich.
Cantlers or boatyard in Annapolis
Hitting the royalty free music at 45 seconds that made me think this was gonna be a Greg collab lmao
Portillos beef sandwich hits🔥🔥! So happy they have multiple locations in Arizona
1) The amount of dedication and work that goes into these videos are insane. 2) The video was awesome! 3) Off topic youre looking very Svelte. Keep up the great work!!
As a foreigner, I'll happily vouch for the American sandwich. Ya'll have perfected the art of putting meat between two slices of bread. There is so much variety, innovation and attention to quality.
Angelo's is amazing. Buddies and I were just in Philly and randomly walking around and found randos eating in the street wondering what hell was going on. They all had food from Angelo's, so we had to stop in and grab an entire pie and cheese steak and was amazed. We then became the next set of randos eating in the street enjoying Angelo's.
the dude at Mr. Beef looks like a Rob schneider character! "Trust me, when you come to my restaurant do NOT order the BLT!" LOL!
I'm so glad you went to La Segunda. I order form them all the time, you just cannot go wrong.
showing ID to pick up a sandwich is wild 💀💀
yea.. it's a f***in sandwich.. who cares if someone stole someone else's sandwich order? you're in a sandwich factory, make another one ffs smh
Joshua, if you’re ever in Buffalo NY, you need to try our Beef on Weck. Rare roast beef, horseradish, on a kimmelweck. As a salt apprecianado , you will enjoy the crunchy top on a freshly baked weck roll.
The fact that movie magic makes it look like you just walked down the street to get to all of these restaurants. When in fact you had to travel A LOT is insane
Thanks for coming to Nebraska!
The fact that Portillo’s is on the list is an affront to Chicago. They used to be awesome but since private equity took over their quality went way down, it’s still good o it’s your only option but shouldn’t make a top ten. You should have put Johnnie’s in there instead of Portillo’s but the voters spoke, unfortunately most of them probably don’t live in Chicagoland anymore.
I SCREAMED at the inclusion of that one. Dude went to a chain and got a soggy sandwich. Like, Portillo's is fine if you have no other options, but he went to a CITY FULL OF OPTIONS KNOWN FOR THIS EXACT SANDWICH. He should've gone somewhere local instead that's not being actively kneecapped by private equity.
1000% agree with this. I wouldn't put portillos anywhere near the top of the list. Even Johnnies is a lot better in my opinion
That's how the restaurant biz works sadly. Great restaurant over expands, investors who need more and more profits extract money as the product goes to shit, then they all cash out as the chain shuts down and pick a new virgin restaurant to ruin.
Portillo's was always grease over quality. It was literally first recommended to me by a guy going in for lap band surgery. And to this day that's the only guy I've known who went there on the reg.
I was really hoping Johnnie’s was going to be in the list and wasn’t happy to see Portillos, oh well, Mr. Beef is an awesome spot
This is the thing about America i'm most jealous of you guys have literally everything a foodie can ask for I miss the states
