On deck we’ve got Chicago’s own Italian Beef, the Sloppy Joe (an Iowan classic), the Horseshoe Sandwich (an Illinois abomination), the Pork Tenderloin sando (Indiana), and the Reuben which, believe it or not, actually originated in Nebraska. Time to see which Sando reigns Supreme! 🤘🏼 Adam

Just a quick way to level up your Reuben game (as taught to me in the mid 90's by a line cook at a deli)...as you're heating up the corned beef and swiss on the griddle with the bowl on top to melt the cheese, throw your sauerkraut down on the griddle to give it a little browning and mix your dressing into it...give it a flip when you pull the corned beef off to transfer to the sandwich, then scoop it up and top the corned beef with nicely toasted sauerkraut and dressing slop...it's an absolute flavor game changer, and nobody ever does it...

@AJvsEverything 2 месяца назад

Basically if you do it enough times you get the timing right where the sauerkraut/sauce has enough time to lightly brown, get flipped, then get pulled...so it's like Corned Beef gets heated, Cheese goes on, Bowl goes on, kraut and sauce go down, kraut/sauce get flipped, Corned Beef gets pulled, kraut gets pulled...I honestly wish more places would make them like this, because it's SOOO much better than just throwing lukewarm kraut and sauce onto a hot sandwich...

@justjeni83 2 месяца назад

Always warm the kraut.

@joelsmith552 2 месяца назад

Always appreciate the bit of brown on the kraut. Pretty much every component of the Reuben benefits from a bit of toasting. this is solid advice.

I love the Italian beef, but the Horseshoe Sandwich, with a burger instead of the ham, is probably my favorite Midwest sandwich.

@morgatron34 2 месяца назад

My apologies for the semantics but that's a pork loin, not tenderloin. They are different and a tenderloin is much smaller. It's all good and I've smoked both and love both but just wanted to point that out. Besides, a tenderloin is too good to fry in my opinion. Sorry, I guess that's the native Texan in me talking. I would have flipped the horseshoe and sloppy joe because I just don't like open face sandwiches and the Reuben and Italian Beef. Don't get me wrong, the Italian Beef looks great but I guess I didn't exactly have a sandwich like that growing up and most certainly had the Reuben.

@dawnpelz8570 2 месяца назад

I didn't even get there but I've been noticing that forever. The tenderloins are inner cavity muscles. It's a filet mignon with beef, or the smaller cut on a porterhouse or t-bone. You'd get a decent number of steaks from a beef tenderloin. A pork tenderloin is enough to feed about 2-3 people and about 3" in diameter at most. A deer tenderloin would be about the same size as a pig but a lot leaner. The loin of a pig is the same as a NY strip, aka strip loin, aka backstrap of a deer. Loin chops are the most common thing you'd see in the grocery store from a pork loin. Pork tenderloin is generally sold whole and may be about a pound each.

The buttermilk marinade on the Pork Tenderloin quite shocked me, because if you're brining pork for Schnitzel here in the Czech Rep and you're really dedicated you just make a salt brine and smash some garlic cloves into that and let the pork sit in it in a cool spot for like three to five days before you make Schnitzels.

@fredberry1342 2 месяца назад

I want to say first I am not going to say anything about the order you placed them in. Saying that I have a couple things to say about two of the sandwiches. The horseshoe needs a spicey cheese sauce I believe that is the right way to do it. If you were to go to D'Arcy's Pint. They would serve the ham sliced thin and piled high. The tenderloin should be very thin much thinner than you had it. I liked this video thank you keep up the good work. Oh and if you are wondering I am from Peoria and I love all these sandwiches

Side of Mac N Cheese is also required. Best childhood din din one could ask for.

@deniseheins2133 2 месяца назад

We've made our own sloppy joes for years but our family must have - a slice of American cheese right on top the meat, a drizzle of mustard and dill pickle slices. And only chips, you have to eat the sandwich over the potato chips and then snag them up and eat them when the meat falls in them 😄

@brianh2287 2 месяца назад

In my opinion you ranked those properly. I just want to say that the Reuben and Italian beef are on a completely different level than the other three. The other sandwiches are average decent sandwiches, but the reuben and italian beef are S tier. These two sandwiches have flavors that elevate each other in perfect harmony. When I am presented with an italian beef and reuben on a menu I always struggle which to order. At home I make them both.

@robertsparling Месяц назад

Those loose meat sandwiches started in Muscatine, Iowa, and were called Maid-Rite sandwiches after the name of the Maid-Rite diner which conceived them. My Grandmother used to feed us Sloppy Joe sandwiches in the early 1960's and for many years afterwards. The maid-right sandwiches, sloppy joe's, and the hot beef sandwiches were staples at all local diners. The hot beef sandwich is a slice of bread, diagonally cut, with a few slices of roast beef on top, then further topped with a scoop of mashed potatoes, and gravy over all of it.

@philsorensen6268 Месяц назад

Maidrites at the restaurant (and good ones at home) do not come swimming in tomato sauce. In Sioux City, the loosemeat sandwich (without the tomato sauce!) is called a tavern or Charlie Boy. Come to Sioux City, Smiles with Miles!

@robertsparling Месяц назад

@@philsorensen6268 I've been there many times. My father used to live near Dakota City. I have never heard Maid Rites called either of those things in central Iowa. The sloppy joes should not have a real tomato "sauce," rather, they were made with tomato paste. This is so the "slop" falls off the bun (or bread) rather than running off, and you could eat the escaped slop with a fork.

@washy934 2 месяца назад

Love that the beef's so tough it nearly stalls the meat slicer - in the UK its quite hard to get big cuts of beef except for rounds unless you go to the butcher with the bank manager. I have no idea what the supermarkets do with the beef fat - but it's always trimmed off all the beef, so you get leanmageddon and they normally just slap on a slice of what I assume is pork lard and call it "basting fat".

@sheds Месяц назад

As someone who loves the Pork Tenderloin more than most, and makes them at home myself, I have to agree, the best sandwich is the Italian Beef and it HAS to be dipped. I will say as someone who makes my Grandma's Italian Beef recipe about once a month and has eaten hundreds of Chicagoland beefs, I prefer my homemade because it's more of a shredded beef and not a sliced beef, and I can make my own au jus to dip as I please. As far as the Tenderloin goes, I do feel like yours wasn't representative of how they're typically made, but still delicious I'm sure. They're typically very thin, and have to breaded with crushed ritz crackers to be the classic, and also what is served at Indiana Fairgrounds and street fairs. I actually got one the day my son while my wife was in labor because of the street fair going on around the hospital where we lived in a rural town (she was okay with it, and got a pineapple whip afterwards). Either way, great video, and you've inspired me to try the Reuben again despite typically hating the components.

My hometown iss Champaign IL (East Central IL home of the University of Illinois) . Lived there until the late 90s. Then to Indianapolis area. Then back in 2009 before returning. In all those years, the horseshoe was a sandwich menu choice I had never heard. I kinda wonder if this sandwich was more popular among the politicians of Spring or the college students of Sangamon State University. 8 spent a fair amount of time in )eor8a, Bloomington -AbNormal, and Decatur .. and I can't ever recall someone talking of the horseshoe in the same way Hoosiers talk of pork tenderloin sandwich or Chicagoan speek of the Italian beef sandwich . it.seems to be a thickly sliced ham sandwich full of flavor. Just not at the same degree of sandwich boastfulness as the Italian beef or pork tenderloin sandwiches.

Fun fact: I live in rural Florida, and Florida actually produces more beef than Texas because the land is much less sparse so they're able to graze more cattle in less space. Although technically I think that's adjusted for area required, just because Texas is just so damn big.

Even a competent Italian beef, is the best sandwich ever. I’m a Hispanic from Arizona and when I discovered this thing in my late 20’s, 30 years ago (thank you Luke’s of Tucson!!!) it changed my thought of what a sandwich could be. I favor the beef sausage combo with both hot/sweet peppers and wet, not dipped. If you want to elevate it, get ajus on the side and bake it in foil, periodically soaking it over 3-4 hours until it’s a crispy soaked bread. That is a special treat.

Born in Kansas and raised in Nebraska, I do have to say the Italian beef is #1 while the Ruben and Pork Tenderloin are a photo finish for 2nd and 3rd. Sloppy Joe would be 4th just because it’s so ordinary. I have no idea what a horseshoe sandwich is so I’d have to put it last but it does remind me sort of like sandwiches you would get in Pittsburgh where they put the fries in the sandwich. Neither good nor bad, just different. I do remember the best pork tenderloin I had as a kid was just outside of Maryville Missouri at a place I sort of remember called the 5 Mile Cafe. That was over 50 years ago and I judge all other tenderloin sandwiches from my memory.

Nice list, but no Midwest love for the Northern Midwest. No, Michigan, Minnesota, or Wisconsin. Being Minnesotan, I'd love to see walleye represented in these region dishes. There's nothing like a good walleye sando.

Rachel over Rueben, but both over Italian beef.

That hunk of C.B. in Los Angeles would probably cost me a hundred bucks.

Until you had some way higher quality bread - I'm talking a really great very crusty pumpernickel with a silky smooth SPONGEY moist, somewhat dense interior, you have NO IDEA how much it impacts the quality of the Reuben sandwich, it can become God tier.

the day I find a cooking channel where a LITTLE of any sauce is actually a little, instead of drenching it.. I will be a happy man. As of today, i am still not happy. Also the Horseshoe sums up the midwest.. fat, fat fat, no balance, no spice, no acidity. Make it with some pickled jalapenos, or add a vinegar based hotsauce, tike even plain old Tabasco.... and that would be 10x better. Conversely.. Chicago is way to addicted to giardiniera
