What's the deal with sandwiches? - Page 47 - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

I've been doing a lot of work in the Buffalo area the past few months.

As long as we're doing ethnic/regional foods that deserve a wider distribution, I offer Buffalo's own Beef on Weck.

It's just roast beef and horseradish. Arby's could pull this off, but the key is the kimmelweck roll.

Delicious. This is the food Buffalo should be known for.

Schwabls is solid but my main gripe is that every server is like 90 years old and it takes forever. Next time you're in town head out to Bar Bill in East Aurora. I went there recently and had best beef on weck in my life.

Agreed about your other comment though. I'm at the point where I think chicken wings are just nasty.

Edit: It's not just roast beef and horseradish. The salt on the bun is great and the dipping of the bun in the Au Jus is incredible. And the places like Schwalbs and Bar Bill ask how you want the beef (rare, well done, etc) which is awesome. Arby's could never do that.

I need recs in town ideally close to or in Allentown.

My immediate thought to your post was Garbriel's Gate. Now, I haven't been there in probably ten years. But here's an article that's a few years old that may help.

I don’t remember it standing out though compared to Schwabl’s or even Charlie. I went to a place called Heckl’s I liked but I think they where a COVId victim.

I like going to Gabriel’s Gate but there beef on weck isn’t that great.

I’ll check the list, thanks.

That list reminds me I need to get Blackthorn, I hope those Micks let Polacks in there.

No idea where I got Heckl’s it was Joey’s Place on Hertel. Apparently they reopened in Tonawanda, if your in that area check it out.

Looks great Red, but let’s not hide that beautiful sandwich in the shadows behind some chips next time.

Could use about 3 more kettle chips and then it'd be PERFECTION.

I love any kettle style jalapeño chip I’ve ever had, I imagine I’d enjoy those as well.

Oh hot damn, spicy, tangy kettle chips sign me up. I like Kettle pepperocini chips
But I think this might be more interesting.

bought a bag of the habanero tonight when i went to the store (just to have chip props tomorrow morning when i make my next bagel sandwich and take a pic with better lighting).
the woman bagging my stuff said 'oh, these are spicy!' and asked if i've ever had the truffle and sea salt krinkle chips, i said nope but i've seen them. she says they're amazing, and then she asks if i've ever had the dill pickle krinkle chips. again i said nope but i've seen them and she says 'the pickle flavor is great...they taste just like a pickle and pickles are may favorite thing'. ?????

I’m gonna have to get each of those chip varieties for SCIENCE!

The Dill Chips prolly are the best if I had to guess.

totally knew the 'hitting on me stuff' was coming when i was typing that out, but i honestly don't think she was. she was literally half my age and just being a friendly, chatty check out person.

“Pickles are my favorite thing.”

You should’ve replied…

AKWARD!!! Then slowly walked away.
