    Holy fuck! That long hot bread looks insane. If that cheesesteak is as good as some of you are saying, then you put that bread on top of it? That could be a game changer.

    That bread is only available occasionally and by the time I called at 4:30 on Friday, it was gone, but yeah

    Unrelated to cheesesteaks but related to long hot bread and local Philly joints. This is the BLT on a Cooper sharp long hot bagel from Korshak's. And it's delicious.

    Went to White House in Atlantic City today.
    Got a full size Italian (it was absolutely delicious...as good an Italian as I've ever had) which I struggled to eat almost half of....thing was huge!

    Got a half Cheesesteak for the boy and I ate some of it.  Don't know where to rank it but it was really good.  Top notch stuff.

    That Italian looks delicious. As I have gotten older I am a bit more restrained when it comes to sodium and nitrates. I rarely eat cold cuts anymore. But I think once in a while won't kill me. I may have to get one of these soon.

    Gobbler vs Pilgrim.

    Since I had no leftovers I felt like a taste test was in order last night. 

    The Gobbler is one of the things Wawa still does well. It wins based primarily based on moistness. The Pilgrim has the better bread, obviously, but is a bit dry. Pilgrim also only comes cold (deli turkey, though Boars Head which is always great) which loses points. So I got the cold Gobbler (with the turkey deli meat) for a fairer fight. I did had them toast the Gobbler--def recommend. Primos should really offer that as an option.

    Moistness of the Gobbler's stuffing plus they just had more turkey and cranberry sauce than the Primos sandwich is what put it over the top. The Wawa stuffing has some gravy in it. No gravy on the Pilgrim--just mayo.

    Of course you can also get a hot Gobbler which comes with the regular turkey instead of deli style.

    I also got American cheese on both. 

    Gobbler for the Win.

    A lot to unpack here. Good to see Primo's getting into this game, and if they've been doing it I've been unaware. I have to say The Bobbie from Capriotti's is probably the best Thanksgiving roll sandwich imo.

    The Gobbler is good stuff tho, gotta try this Primo's one.

    No cheese on that, no way, get that outta here.

    I think The Gobbler has to be served warm/hot. 

    That's bushleague Primo's goes with lunch meat turkey. Has to be carved roasted turkey, regardless of it being warm or cold.

    The perfect leftover Tgiving sandwich is cold and has to be on white bread, turkey, mayo, cranberry sauce, heavy on the S&P, that's it. And you're eating at least two of them.

    Marble rye for my leftovers, and we go one way with the turkey, mayo and cranberry horseradish spread, and another way with turkey, slaw and russian/thousand island.  Swiss optional on the second sandwich.  And as an aside, I have always enjoyed Primos.

    No stuffing for either of you guys? It is mandatory as far as I am concerned. But my mom's stuffing is always the best dish on the table at Thanksgiving so I am sure that plays into it for me.

    I made a savage Sammie both yesterday and today, to rival The Gobbler.
    Made a Japanese Mayo and Leftover cranberry relish.
    Toasted fresh sourdough on the stovetop.
    Thinly sliced some of the turkey breast leftovers and popped for a quick heat on the stovetop.
    In a bowl, mixed mashed potatoes, stuffing, some panko, and an egg.  Made a few patties and crisped then on each side in the pan.
    Added some lettuce and it was amazing.

    The cranberry mayo thing was awesome.

    I’m not the biggest fan of Campo’s, but my girlfriend loves the Flyers cheesesteak (cream cheese, tomato, spicy cheese) so we get it from time to time. Decided to be a little adventurous and try something different this time. This is called the Stockyard and this is how they describe it:

    If you want a truly unique experience, this cheesesteak comes with chicken, and is cooked in all the oily goodness of pepperoni, bacon, and fried onions. Not to mention the marscarpone cheese spread it sits on.

    No way on the stuffing. It's suppose to be a cold sandwich so that doesn't compute for me.

    How was it?
    Oh yeah, guess I should have mentioned that. Easily my favorite that I’ve had from Campo’s. Will be my new go-to there for sure.

    No stuffing in the sandwich, bread on bread does not work for me.  Stuffing is the best side dish when covered in sliced turkey and gravy!
