I need help finding a long lost childhood favorite

Imagine the following

>hot, crispy bread loaf, like a baguette
>shaved beef (almost like roastbeef) , hot and peppery and greasy as fuck
>maybe cheese, or maybe the way the bread interacted with the meat made the bread creamy instead
>wrapped in tin foil
>put in a box
>given to you

Last time I had it was almost 20 years ago, and the memory constantly haunts me.

I need a name so i can find a local place

All I can offer in return is pictures of meatballs i will be making in 12 hours

Those are some interesting meatballs you got there.

Philadelphia cheesesteak?

[Anonymous No.4150999]

You could be talking about a reuben (which is made with pastrami, a shaved cured beef that's hot and peppery) and the relish just seeped into the bread to make it "creamy". Reubens are usually toasted too.

Could be a Philly cheesesteak too.

Reuben recipes are more consistent and easier to make, but asking for a good Philly cheesesteak recipe is tentamount to starting a shitstorm in most parts of the US.

Then why don't you try making it with just beef, bread and cheese? You aren't giving us anything to go on with here, where did you live in chilldhood that you'd get it anyway?

OP do you live in Illinois?

It's probably an Italian Beef.

>meat cooked in juices
>cut up and soaked in juices
>slopped onto chewy bread
>juices soak into everything
>orgasms in your mouth

Good luck getting it anywhere outside the state.

Philly cheesteak

Roast beef, cheese (american (white) or provolone), options that are grillled: onion, green peppers, mushrooms.

I personally go as far to get a thin layer of mayo which adds to the creamyness of the sandwich

where did i eat it, downtown philly

Ruben:
ruben bread, thousand island dressing corned beef with either swiss cheese chedder (sharp), american white or provolone. personal favorite: Munster. Topping options: grilled onions, coleslaw or sauerkraut. personal favorite: thin layer of horseradish before 1000 island dressing.

where do i eat it, my kitchen. first place i tried it: Brooklyn, NY

meatballs

This was a dry run, making rest of them + sauce + egg noodles for dinner

need to cook on lower temp so it cooks through with less crispies
