The Meatball Sub Sandwich That Frank Sinatra Would Have Eaten - The Meat Show

The White House Sub Shop carries the great honor of calling itself “the home of the submarine,” and although it isn’t the birthplace of the sandwich, it certainly is well-known both in and out of Atlantic City, NJ. After countless recommendations, The Meat Show host Nick Solares was so excited to try the famed sandwich that he decided to tackle three different types.
Eater is the one-stop-shop for food and restaurant obsessives across the country. With features, explainers, animations, recipes, and more - it’s the most indulgent food content around. So get hungry.

so glad that the pepper oil was not only gentle, but reassuring

[@godbelow]

I'm thankful it was my first time!

[@dollarking9641]

Nick slowly become a succulent meme

[@KatotownUSA]

Jesus dude..it's a guy on youtube that eats food. Go outside

[@sneer0101]

Poorna Prithvi That high blood pressure of yours is going to cause you an early death too. As well as an overdose of salt. You're fucked.

[@APNugie]

Poorna Prithvi why do you still watch meat show then?

[@InfinitySlayer1]

he/she/it is indian. all the eating of the cows has set he/she/it off.

[@veronicaanne5637]

Every time I walk into a sandwich shop I order "The Italian." If they can do that right then I will come back. It is amazing how many sub places cannot get such a simple yet perfect sandwich right. That meaty grinder looked great and now I am craving some cold cuts on bread.

[@sirbacons.]

This is perhaps the funkiest concussive platonic video on this channel

[@Asherid6232]

Bryan which episode is that from?

[@seanmcdonagh6237]

The owner constantly passing in the background to see what he's saying haha

[@Daniel.0521]

Sean McDonagh i live down their and whenever i go their she is always walking around

[@saturnlizards]

She's been walking around that place for 48 years.

[@gingerosity244]

Nick has quickly become my favorite food show host on your channel. Please give him my regards, Eater!

[@thegreatcalvinio]

Nick and Ray Hudson should do a video together... "This sandwich has some absurd concentrated complexity to it." -Nick "This sandwich was braver than a matador in a pink tutu, it's like a dinosaur with hemorrhoids!" -Ray Hudson

[@ABitefLife]

I ate almost a whole Italian sub from White House subs last year and it’s hard to even put into words how good every single bite was. It’s a heavenly experience. I stuffed myself so much it was like after thanksgiving . It’s hard to stop eating

[@ArkhamJacks]

But how platonic is the sub?

[@stefanod8360]

It's unctuous in an ethereal way

[@onemulatto]

I don't even describe sex with my girlfriend as exquisitely as he describes one bite of a sandwich.

[@APNugie]

onemulatto yeah. cz u didnt enjoy it to the max

[@armagetronfasttrack9808]

Your girlfriend must not be the platonic ideal

[@skating7791]

Her vaginal walls are probably just not concussive enough.

[@papertoye]

How's that relationship going?

[@chriseppley8272]

Love the show! Keep them coming!

[@comm2531]

Those are brutal looking subs. The closest I can get to any sort of resemblance in Texas is Jersey Mikes. This video makes me want to go there. Everyone seems to think subs are the best in Boston and New York but the middle Atlantic states like Maryland, Delaware, Philly, South Jersey all have excellent subs. Best meatball sub I ever had was in Annapolis and Tacoma park MD. For Cheese steak sandwiches, Boston. New York pizza is the best but can find good pizza all over the eastern seaboard. As with submarine sandwiches.

[@057_nazly7]

Regardless of what people thinks, i find nick an enjoyable and a really fun host.

[@joyjoyoo]

Distressed Person I like him

[@tosht2515]

+Distressed Person 👍👍

[@mikehawk2148]

Without him there is no meme, everybody loves him

[@somerandomguy84]

Having followed the meat show for a little while now, Nick USED to be verbose and pretentious (about 2 years ago). He's way better now and I think most people would ultimately agree. With that said, the guy is so memeable.

[@mikehawk2148]

2:40 I'm not sure if he's just moaning or starting to cry, either way you made my day Mr. Solares

[@markdezii]

Excellent video. Great job!

[@UtgardMan]

I just love the way the owner keeps lurking behind Nick for half the video.

[@hisroyalhighness8566]

She's a waitress

[@saturnlizards]

She's been working there for 48 years. She started in 1975

[@louzer2566]

Man i wish i had a place like this on my block

[@kicktotheballs]

White House sub is one of the greatest sandwiches I've ever eaten.

[@GougerOfTheGroin]

Nick never confirmed whether the cheese added a profound viscous coating or not, we'll never know.. :(

[@snipermakedonski]

Loving this show and the host!

[@lamjinyuan9181]

Great production !

[@Rocioslane]

Those sandwiches look amazing!

[@user-dn5gw2bl2x]

The concussive plantonic ideal sub?

[@littlemaple1]

Not enough memeing from Nick in this video

[@eater]

Ah --- good call for next video.

[@hungrybynature4205]

Eater can you ask Nick to use "maillard reaction?" It's been a while

[@nyquilnu2221]

2:15 You can tell he wanted to say "Maillard" so badly there.

[@Sledge_369]

I want another Etheral video Nick. Good shit as always

[@jimmyd8206]

My mouth is drooling. Will be making the 2 hour drive next month to White House.

[@BD-zg7is]

love this guy

[@chris6796]

great vid. As usual. best presenter on eater.

[@quetzybanda9869]

Subscribed because of this guy.

[@inFamousDog27]

Was that sandwich the profound platonic ideal, or did it not fit your concussive sardonic palette?

[@travissomething3341]

inFamousX he was noticeably less pretentious this video, give him some credit

[@angelusnielson7135]

You're a nerd. And I understood what you were saying.. :P

[@VeniVidiAjax]

inFamousX i lold quite hard there

[@timza123]

needs more funky and furry notes.. oh and don't forget tangy notes

[@MariyaPylayev]

the dry aged wagyu of jokes strikes again

[@kreemkrackered3755]

Before I die, I'd love to be able to have those sandwiches - they look sooo good..

[@natsfan100]

Been going to this place for over 10 years. Everyone I introduce to it becomes a life long fan

[@buckstraw925]

Philly locals don't normally get whiz on a cheesesteak. Yes, some get it but whiz is mostly for tourists.

[@ArkhamJacks]

"This is the type of Meatball you invision Frank Sinatra having eaten" who says that? and the fuck does that mean?

[@itsBEZZyo]

you're right, I was envisioning more of an Al Capone

[@deke441]

way more of a Walter Sobchak meatball.

[@mikehawk2148]

Sinatra's from New Jersey? Maybe? I don't know

[@Char12403]

Ann Frank would have been a Belieber

[@jeffreybrooks1196]

That it's classic and hasn't changed much since the mid-20th century presumably. Not that hard to figure out what he means, not sure why everyone gets off on hating everything Nick says.

[@gmoney8821]

grew up on these

[@bennydemario4624]

I ate there often,my grandfather owned a pharmacy a block from there

[@rudyoviedo9258]

Those look delicious

[@johnpowers2921]

South Jersey has the best food in the area, but these subs are beyond description! We drive three hours to get there, not just for the subs, but they really add to the trip

[@cookyourbeauty4021]

I love ALL sandwiches. It's my favourite food 😋😋😋😋💖

[@ericgarcia2993]

haven't been to this part of flavortown before

[@nicholaslandolina]

As soon as I saw the title I knew it was The White House sub shop...

[@cornelioatmeal]

BEEFY AND TOMATOEY?

[@omargonzalez2641]

This guy is very enjoyable.

[@Roy-G-Biv]

omg...yum

[@johannathaniellimbong5697]

everytime i watch eater hosted by nick, i always paused the video and go to comment section first.

[@joeygavadeels2784]

I have had all 3 of those featured subs at the White House & ALL 3 are outstanding! The Formica Bros. Bakery Italian roll is top notch & above the rest!!! Fuhgeddaboudittt.

[@undergroundheatcypher1091]

I'm from Philly and I love going to the Whitehouse don't eat red meat or pork but the chicken cheesesteak is awesome and the chicken parmesean is great also!!

[@tomjones5650]

Do the chicken cacitorre. Best sandwich on the menu.

[@undergroundheatcypher1091]

@@tomjones5650 Okay I will try it thanks!!

[@MaverickBaking]

These all look really good but holy shit the SIZE of them haha!

[@yausingchan]

Even when they make pasta they use to put tons of cream, oil and butter into it, everything has to be rich and creamy. Let's say a person eating 150 cal more then he need everyday, that person will gain about 50lbs in a year.

[@sense2975]

I ate these before I live here

[@lborja579]

PLATONIC IDEAL Solares

[@Spinaci666]

At first I was wondering about the comments but after watching some episodes i did understand them and it was concussive

[@NateMulder]

2:40 - a concussive experience indeed

[@MCBAProductions]

If you're in New Jersey go to LBI to the Chicken or The Egg in LBI

[@mmcgahn5948]

That Formica Bakery bread makes the sandwich

[@markgeraldmurillo6621]

I love meat ❤️ and this show makes me love it more.

[@markgeraldmurillo6621]

The groans of a man with meat being shoved into his mouth really opens my mind.

[@4plobe]

I had the steak sub here was great. Loved it one of my favorite subs ever. Also had the meatball and I was not impressed I ended up throwing most of it out the meatballs were gross

[@Kellyd2024]

Meatballs have to be from an Italian Restaurant. And don't order Italian in a diner!!

[@mangolassi7124]

Everyone used to dislike this guy, now he's gone i think we all want him back :(

[@TheEnnisfan]

Can't wait to hit this next time I'm in NYC. Goddamn!

[@darthyves]

I'm from NYC but White House makes the best Sandwiches..the "Special" and the Cheese steaks are unbeatable.

[@kennychiang9239]

That is a half ???...holy cow !

[@danielsuen1311]

was so distracted by the owner pacing back and forth as he ate

[@mikehawk2148]

In case his memery in the video wasn't enough they got the spinalis dorsi to feature in the outro

[@bluetoad2001]

those are real sammichs. it is easy to tell even from the video the ingredients are expertly made.

[@conalquinn5276]

I wonder if Nick ever reads the comments on his videos ...

[@htonmusic]

the maillard reaction is merely a rumour in this video

[@KevLo64]

an episode where he doesnt say spinolis dorsi, but they end it with a clip of him saying it

[@activitiesbrookmont2388]

The most delicious Italian bread that creates the perfect White House Sub that I have known since I was a girl. Anna Penrod 😎

[@lukevsteenderen]

i just watch these for the comments 😂😂

[@benis9965]

Holy mother fucking shit nick didn`t sound as pretentious in this video... am i dreaming? is he actually a more down to earth host now?

[@augustpendergast4478]

First the Knife and Fork and now the White House. You're hitting all the old spots. Stop off at the Irish Pub for a cold one.

[@hillheatherlynnify]

Is that pepper oil hot ?

[@joyjoyoo]

So the hosts are all over the place. Philly, NJ, SF, and god knows where Serena is.

[@paulson2008]

I like nick ...he is simply platonic guy

[@bryliang]

paulson thomas but is he the platonic ideal?

[@Sotenn]

I prefer the subs that Lucas did in San Fran

[@mikewu6801]

Go to Tastees!!! That's where it's at. Or Hoagie Haven. Or Stuff yer Face for some epic POTACHOS. You won't regret it. -a fan and NJ local.

[@gary609906]

AC bread is the key to a perfect sub.

[@samgilman4588]

everybody hating this video still watches it, they call that a paradox

[@Hughmcdonald123]

so platonic

[@300y1]

That bread looks like when you bite into it, you're going to cut the roof of your mouth.

[@user-fm9ev1gr8u]

it's savory

[@MathiasDaa]

right

[@neville3151]

Love meatball subs but don't forget napkins and more napkins.

[@carlosacosta4382]

I literally would watch this guy review bottled water

[@younlion08]

*empathy...*

[@poi8880]

nick should go to nusr-et its extremely tender

[@marvilousmccammon4380]

Dr. Huxtable approves

[@ItzJeffreySon]

I might like the comment section of The Meat Show better than the actual show.

[@jason41482]

bada bangin

[@christopheryasus3666]

Lol 2:41

[@henryjw15]

How does nick eat all that?

[@joyjoyoo]

henryjw15 camera crew !

[@RustyB5000]

if you want a bomb philly cheesesteak, go to jersey mikes and get the big kahuna. so bomb....

[@kennytjong]

He always crosses the road when he was not supposed to :(

[@mystaniceguy]

Lettuce on a cheese steak?

[@EpicGamingFeed]

Young Sinatra

[@rekcap50]

i only click on his videos for the comments

[@northsidemotorsports]

very well done Nick. if i would give you any direction in how to film these videos i would say just simply do you. dont let these haters get to you. if they dont like watching your videos they can stop but hey youre still getting paid for their views. keep up the good work. your videos are all awesome.

[@billb.5183]

I think the terms "platonic", "concussive", "maillard" and "succulent" have run their courses in Nick's comment section. As for the sandwiches, I can't eat my cold subs all folded over like that. It's just a mess. Cut the bread all the way through please. They all looked delicious though.

[@PepitoKawazaki]

I think he jizzed at 2:40

[@cliffordbodine5834]

The first sandwich was a Cheesesteak Hoagie.
