It’s America between two slices of bread! It’s a fast-cut, slightly goofy celebration of some great sandwiches at some very interesting places from Pennsylvania to California. Have a pastrami in New York City. Sample a Maid Rite "loosemeat" in Iowa, a St. Paul sandwich in St. Louis, and a chipped ham "Slammer" in Pittsburgh. How about barbecued brisket in Texas? Or Italian beef in Chicago? Try a muffuletta and several shrimp and oyster po-boys in New Orleans. And see why folks in Buffalo go for a beef-on-weck while people in Louisville love a Hot Brown.
Even when much of America seems "all the same," you can still find some distinctive, delicious differences in lots of cities, and this documentary takes you to some outstanding eateries where lobster rolls are amazing, where falafel is fabulous, and where peanut-butter-and-jelly is always at the top of the menu.
Special Features (only on DVD) include The extended producer’s cut of the program which is approximately 20 minutes of additional material, all of the promotional spots for this program, the special-pledge break interviews with program participants, plus many more surprises!
