No “It’s the same sandwich!” battles on this one?

Of course my two favorites in the whole round have to be against each other. I had to give gyro the nod because I’ve had maybe 5 Italian beefs in my life and hundreds of gyros. So Italian beef is still a bit of a mystery box for me.

Here you go. It was Bourdain’s favorite sandwich

Justice John Hodgeman, America’s premier authority on sandwich jurisprudence, is in the tank for lobster rolls:

Regional food imo.

Close for me but my mom’s ham and Swiss sliders w special sauce are epic.

Isn’t turkey club versus thanksgiving a mirror?

I just voted but I’ll be honest I’ve never even smelled 90% of these sandwiches

BLT vs Brisket should be the final imo.
I haven’t chosen - tough one.

Reuben and French Dip both overrated iyam. A good Brisket sandwich would choke them both to tapout in the first minute of the fight.

Come at me, haters!

Year should be ‘early’.

I know the mortadella sandwich isn’t taking this tournament down (and shouldn’t) and it looks like it’s not even getting into the Savory Sixteen. But it is a really great sandwich—for me the undisputed king of the pig + cheese bombs—and it’s so easy to make. So if above helps bring it into anyone’s lives then that’s cool
