11 Sandwiches That Should Be Famous Everywhere

Some sandwiches are only legends in their own region, but they deserve to be household names across the country. These eleven are hidden gems that everyone should get a chance to enjoy.

North Shore Beef

Massachusetts’ juicy roast beef, thinly sliced and dipped in jus on a soft roll. Simple, meaty, and legendary locally.

New Jersey’s breakfast hero. Salty pork roll, egg, and melted cheese in a bun. Savory and perfect morning, noon, or night.

Liver Mush Sandwich

North Carolina’s crispy, pork-and-cornmeal loaf served on white bread with mustard. Oddly addictive and packed with local pride.

Shrimp Po Boy

Crispy fried shrimp stuffed in a crunchy baguette with lettuce, tomato, and remoulade. Louisiana’s messy, unforgettable signature.

Open-faced burger smothered in spicy green chili. Fork-and-knife required, flavor guaranteed.

Runza

Nebraska’s warm bread pocket of beef and cabbage. Hearty, savory, and worth every mile.

Cudighi Sandwich

Michigan’s spicy Italian sausage, red sauce, and melty cheese in a roll. Regional and unforgettable.

Sailor Sandwich

Pastrami, sausage, and melted Swiss cheese on rye. Bold, meaty, and a Richmond, Virginia staple.

Hawaiian pulled pork in a sweet bun. Smoky, tender, and a vacation in every bite.

Fried Bologna Sandwich

Thick-cut bologna, seared and layered on a soft bun. It is a nostalgic treat with big flavor.
