Philadelphia’s Best Roast Pork

Posted by Foobooz on September 14th, 2006

DiNic's

Philadelphia Magazine breaks down the Holy Ghost of Philadelphia’s Holy Trinity of sandwiches, the roast pork sandwich. We’re not going to get into whether the cheesesteak or hoagie is the Father or the Son.

Philly Magazine defines the ideal Italian style roast pork sandwich and gets down to ranking Philadelphia’s best.

An Italian-style roast pork sandwich sounds simple enough: You lay provolone on an Italian roll and add well-seasoned pork. You saut broccoli rabe or spinach with garlic until its soft, taking care to keep the green color bright. You spoon cooking juices over the meat. Done right, its some of the best eating money can buy for under $7.

The top ten after the jump.

  1. DiNics, Reading Terminal Market
  2. Angelinas Italian Kitchen, Pottstown
  3. Sopranos Deli & Catering, Broomall
  4. Tony Lukes, South Philadelphia
  5. Johns Roast Pork, South Philadelphia
  6. Johnnys Hots, Delaware Avenue
  7. Savinos Sandwich Shop, Woodbury
  8. Georges Sandwich Shop, South Philadelphia
  9. Chickies Italian Deli, South Philadelphia
  10. Pats King of Steaks, South Philadelphia
