[@alfreddaniel1994]

I'm reminded of the "Fresh Prince Of Bel Air" episode when Uncle Phil brought back some "Philly cheese steak" sandwiches for Will from a fancy restaurant and Will said, "There ain't even any grease on the bag."

[@pacmon5285]

Jolly also did a Philly episode recently and they went to Angelo's.

[@willvr4]

I went to college in PA, even pizza places have great cheesesteaks. Never had Angelo's, but that looks like the best one I've ever seen.

[@saintsataniko2116]

So did DoobyDoBap and she ate that cheesesteak like a savage in her rental car and pronounced Philly as a better food destination than NYC!

[@baussify]

Josh has a great channel. Well edited, never too serious, fast paced, and he’s a PRETTY decent chef 😅

[@Timmycoo]

And plenty of... B-ROLL. :D

[@chancejamar2630]

He opened the shop that day just for him and his friend is only making 1 sandwich, while the other places he went to is pumping out 100s. The made-to-order sandwich is always gonna be better.

[@marleybob3157]

I was born and raised in the Philadelphia area but haven't lived there since 1986. Man, I miss the cheesesteaks!

[@Lee_Forre]

Yeah man, I missed the East coast food more than I did my family! I can chat with family anytime I want, but I cant get authentic hoagies unless Im there.

[@saintsataniko2116]

Fantastic video! I've never seen this guy before but his channel must be big to afford him traveling from coast to coast eating sandwiches. The Nebraska Reuben! Who knew? Also, a little added validity to his choice of Angelo's Pizzeria, is that another huge food channel, DoobyDoBap, absolutely raved about the cheesesteak she had there a few months back when she visited Philly.

[@MichaelW969]

Reuben's Deli, New York In 1914, a hungry actress named Annette Seelos visited the New York Jewish deli and asked for a filling sandwich. The owner, Reuben, or his chef, improvised the recipe and created the Reuben's Special.

Italian beef sandwiches have garlic. The dip generally has a lot of garlic.

[@scottbmedic]

Po boys can literally be anything my favorite is fried oysters followed by whole fried clams then catfish or shrimp

[@MacGuffinExMachina]

I've eaten at that particular Columbian restaurant many times. It's excellent. Their black bean dip is awesome. So is their 1905 salad. I'm not a huge salad fan but the 1905 will blow your doors off. I've also never had any of their sandwiches, I've always been there for dinner, not lunch. I never had a bad meal there, in the front part, the old bar section, there's a wall with awards on it for their servers and some of these guys have worked there for 40+ years. I took my parents there when they came to visit me one year, we had dinner upstairs and they had the Flamenco Dancers show, it was a good time. I miss ya mom and dad. I've also been to the one in St. Augustine too, it's also good.

[@garyi.1360]

No one ever ranks the Monte Cristo sandwich. Probably because many places don't know how to make one properly.

[@Lee_Forre]

Daz my brother, you and your family should definitely take a trip here to the beautiful and historic, blue collar city of Philadelphia. Best sandwiches in the country. You gotta go to Reading Terminal Market, trust me. You could spend a month in there and still not try every delicious item in store. Truly magnificent. Some say the Roast Pork sandwich is greater than the cheesesteak. Give it a shot and see for yourself. Also, the best thing about cheesesteaks is there is no one-way to order it, you get it the way you want it and all is good. It's all about your own personal preference, brother. Take care and cheers!

[@staceybert1975]

PoBoys come with many meats/seafood Sgrimp, Oyster,Catfish, Trout, Ham(hot or cold) Roadt Beef Turkey Fried chicken Sasuage Gator Hamburger Hot Sasuage, and many cold meats Bolanga, Smoked Ham Liverwurst Luncheon Meat.

[@Timmycoo]

Lol that rant at the end by Daz, I know that feel. My wife and I visited Philly for work a while ago and when we came back to California and tried to get a cheesesteak, just not the same. It's funny because a lot of places (even here now in the PNW) try and put their own spin on it with additions when I just want the traditional like what Josh had in this video. I totally feel him when he complains about the lack of salt/seasoning on the meats though.

Katz's Deli is on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes to eat there, but I love the pastrami and would wait if I had to. I have been lucky enough to eat at 5 of these places and can assure you that you won't be unhappy about any of the sandwiches (unless they have a 2 hour wait and dumb number system for pickup)

[@siliconpenguin]

He went to Portillo's for an Italian Beef... That's like going to McDonald's for a hamburger. Nothing against either of those chains, but they're chains... And I'm sure there are people that don't order their Italian Beef with cheese, but I don't know any. And get the giardiniera on the side! As for the Philly Cheese Steaks... I had one made from thin sliced ribeyes, and I would never eat it any other way. I've made my own that way, and all the ones on his list looked gross by comparison - although the winning sandwich looked REALLY good, it didn't look as good as one made with ribeyes.

[@jimcathcart5116]

Poboy is their hoagie comes in many flavors

[@makapan1]

I am with you Daz! As far as sandwiches go, absolutely nothing better than a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich....and you can take that to the bank!

[@pacmanc8103]

If I remember correctly, Katz’s deli is in Manhattan in the SOHO area. I used to like the Stage deli up on 7th and 54th (?) more.

[@willvr4]

It's a tourist trap at this point. I could never justify paying that much for a sandwich.

Po’boy is called that because when the men boycotted they were poor boys so a local restaurant owner decided to make them sandwich for free until the company gave them want they wanted and the po’boy sandwich was born.

Reuben is my favorite sandwich next to egg salad. I’m a bit of an egg salad snob, though, hard to find a place that makes a really good one.

[@LancerX916]

I prefer a muffaletta over a Po Boy. I think it's a better sandwich. The Ruben sandwich was one city in Nebraska, one in LA and Katz in NYC. He went to three states for that sandwich.

Baltimore Pit Beef should be on this list!!!!

[@willvr4]

Even in NY, nobody makes a great cheesesteak like they do in PA. (not just phili, you can find great ones in lots of pizzaria's in central to eat PA) I think the biggest mistake people make is that the beef comes out dry, and they don't mix in the cheese with the beef WHILE it's cooking, they add it in after the fact. The cheese is suppose to blend in and fuse with the beef.

[@ESUSAMEX]

Katz Deli is in NYC and it is where Meg Ryan faked the big O in the movie When Harry Met Sally with Bill Crystal.

Anybody who doesn’t believe me do your own research. I learned from research and some training I had to do for the shrimping license I once had. Shrimp loses half its flavor in 10 minutes after leaving the water. So you have 2 choices immediately cook it and eat it on the boat or immediately flash freeze it on the boat. It’s the one exception fresh seafood is the best not with shrimp. Also shrimp and prawns are not the same. Like I said look it up for yourselves

[@rmk2336]

14:26 To quote a 1980s Wendy's commercial "Where's the beef?" That sandwich looks like 💩 all I see are two green peppers and a little pinch of beef. Is there any slightest bit of beef underneath the peppers? So he gave that sandwich an eight out of ten because the beef is nice (what little bit of beef I see) even though he said the peppers were super overcooked (which they don't even look cooked at all to me) and mushy and the bread was completely obliterated and he said it was a mushy mess. It just looks like a green pepper sandwich.

[@kennethswartz8252]

I hadn't been in a few years and went to it the other day, was so looking forward to the flavor and soft beef that made it stand out and found the seasoning on it to be 1/2 of what it used to be and yes, there is less beef on it now than they used to put on it.

American chef means nothing when it comes to a cheesesteak. There are places in Philly that serve horrible cheesesteaks. I'm originally from New Orleans, and I can't even find a place that makes a proper Po'boy right here in Houston. A city also on the Gulf coast with lots of Louisiana transplants, and I still can't find a place that does it quite right. Probably the same for cheesesteaks. Most likely difficult to get a great one outside of Philly in America, much less across the pond in England.
