Boring question #82: How do you separately describe a Poorboy, Dagwood, Submarine, Hero, and Hoagie sandwich?

There is no difference of ingredients, only regional differences in names.

I describe them all as something I will never make. :)

No separation in description.. There’s only one way to describe them… BUUUUURRRRPPP!!!

A Dagwood is different from the others because it is made on sliced bread, the rest are made on a long roll.

I’ve always thought of a Poorboy as being made with cheap meats like bologna, but that may be my own misconception, since I’ve never lived in a place where sandwiches are called that.

All distincly different and best ordered with extra tomatoes!

Dagwood Sandwiches are a multi-layered sandwich with a variety of fillings

Hoagie SandwichHoagies are built-to-order sandwiches filled with meat and cheese, as well as lettuce, tomatoes, and onions, topped off with a dash of oregano-vinegar dressing on an Italian roll. A true Italian Hoagie is made with Italian ham, prosciutto, salami, and provolone cheese, along with all the works.

Po’ Boy (Poor-Boy) Sandwich – Also know as Oyster Loaves. Po’ Boy is the generic name for the standard New Orleans sandwich made with French bread. Always made with French bread, Po’ boys can be filled with fried oysters, shrimp, fish, soft-shelled crabs, crawfish, roast beef and gravy, roast pork, meatballs, smoked sausage and more.

Subway Sandwich – It is a king-sized sandwich on an Italian loaf of bread approximately 12 inches long an 3 inches wide, filled with boiled ham, hard salami, cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and sometimes flavored with garlic and oregano.

You forgot grinder (for Hoagie).

@Cruiser‘s descriptions are accurate.

Who would have known @Cruiser was the Gordon Ramsay of sandwiches? Har har

@Hypocrisy_Central Except I am a lot nicer and more fun to be in the kitchen with than GR!

@Cruiser Aw, you mean you won’t throw the sandwich down and say “You f’got the mustard, and the ham is RAW, it’s RAW! G’t out you <bleep> donkey, piss off…!”?

@Hypocrisy_Central Only at my MIL’s… in my own kitchen I am a complete gentleman. ;)
