Out of the list I picked a Reuben but my favorite is a BLT (usually hold the L) with a home grown freshly picked perfectly ripe tomato on toasted sourdough.
Completely missed that post. But it's my runner-up, for sure.
I love Big Macs. Not ashamed. mtmuley

Twin lobster rolls two ways from Tuckaway Tavern in SE New Hampshire.
My go to hunting sandwich is a bagel with cream cheese, sharp cheddar and smoked turkey. Used to make them daily when I was younger and worked every day in the woods. I always laid my pack in the sun for a bit to get a hot sandwich when it came time for lunch.
Chicago has the best Italian Beef hands down!You 100% cannot get a lobster roll in a lot of places/states/regions and if you can 1/2 the time it's actually pollock.
Now the rest... maybe to some extent, but a lot of places have pretty dog chit Reuben's you really have to go to a Jewish Deli... BBQ in New England (Yikes), a lot of places really f-up a Philly... anyway.
"only certain regions/states/ cities have good food" -FIFY
WY- rough
MT- actually surprisingly has some decent spots
Denver/Chicago/Houston/SF/NYC - Excellent
The rest of Colorado
Boston- epically bad... might even say spectacularly... they manage to screw up take out Chinese, I'm not even setting the bar high here.

For a Cuban I want the char-roasted and sliced. Mojo is good, but to me a cuban sandwich is sliced.
Now, for the pulled pork sandwich, I want a slow smoked pork butt. Throw a spicy slaw on top with a good bun, and you have a very fine sandwich.

This is probably a regional thing to the Chicago land area but I am a big fan of the combo. It’s an Italian beef with an Italian sausage in it. Pure heaven.

You know, you alway crave what you can't have. We make great pulled pork and brisket, and burgers, and pretty good Reubens; friend does his own corned beef briskets and we do sauerkraut and marbled rye.
But, in Boston, we had great clam "sandwiches" that were basically just bread and lettuce plates filled with perfectly fried clams. Never got the knack of frying oysters or clams; not enough opportunity, I guess.
And in NOLA, had wonderful oyster loafs. I was getting out of a meeting and my wife called, and I asked what she was doing and she said, standing in line with a bunch of construction workers, they know what's good, right?
And boy did they ever. Turned out to be a neighborhood joint. Later on DDD; hope it didn't ruin them.
And our river breakfast was often grilled bagels with cream cheese with either Canadian or regular bacon.
And no one, I think, has mentioned The King's favorite: Fried Peanut Butter and banana.

I appreciate that the Rueben is getting the spot it deserves. Saddened that the Cuban is lagging though. Seriously!?!? It’s a grilled cheese, pulled pork, and hot ham sandwich on one.
Back to Ruebens, anyone ever in Indianapolis owes it to themselves to get one at Shapiro’s deli. It’s an honest Jewish deli in Indy. Their Reuben has placed nationally for best in the country.

The ones you don’t have to make are called sammiches and I’m stopping right there.
