While this authentic sandwich has proved itself to be a street food favorite, it is also an excellent dish to make at home.

And just like that, a local obsession came to be! A cab driver drove by and caught a whiff of the sub and asked for one himself. He grabbed some beef from a local butcher, threw it on his grill, and popped it in a hot dog bun. This classic sandwich was born when Pat Olivieri, a hot dog stand owner in Philadelphia, decided he was sick of having hot dogs for his lunch.
