10 Sandwiches Ready To Take Over The World
Other cuisines have had their time. These ten sandwiches are the next generation; bold, balanced, and built with personality. They bring everything people love about the world, just smarter, louder, and a little more put together.
Patty Melt
The Patty Melt is what happens when a burger grows up. Rye bread replaces the bun, Swiss cheese melts into onions, and everything feels just a little more deliberate.
Chicken Fried Steak Sandwich
Texas took a steak, fried it, and turned it into a sandwich so powerful it doesn’t need ketchup. It’s crunch, comfort, and bragging rights in one bite.
Brisket Sandwich
Slow-smoked and melt-in-your-mouth tender, this Texas classic redefines “beef sandwich.” Burgers wish they had this much depth; or patience.
North Shore Beef
From Massachusetts’ coast comes a roast beef sandwich dripping with mayo, cheese, and barbecue sauce. It’s regional devotion in sandwich form; and it’s unstoppable.
Primanti Brothers Sandwich
Pittsburgh’s legendary stack of fries, slaw, and meat inside the bread doesn’t just replace a burger; it rewrites the manual on what lunch can be.
Chopped Cheese
New York’s Chopped Cheese hits like a burger remix: ground beef, melted cheese, and grilled onions tucked in a hero roll. It’s fast, loud, and full of bodega spirit.
Onion Burger
El Reno, Oklahoma takes burgers seriously; by smashing onions right into the beef. The result is smoky, caramelized perfection that tastes like history cooked on a griddle.
Bison Burger
Lean, rich, and full of character, the Wyoming-born Bison Burger proves lighter can still mean bold. It’s the burger’s fit cousin; stronger and better in every way.
Pastrami Burger
Utah didn’t just copy the burger; it outdid it. Stacking pastrami over beef creates a double-meat beast that laughs at moderation. Once you’ve had one, it’s over for plain patties.
Italian Beef Sandwich
Chicago’s soaked, spicy masterpiece brings energy that burgers can’t touch. Dripping with jus and topped with giardiniera, it’s part sandwich, part performance.
