Stout, the one time I had Primanti's my friend brought it DOWN to me so I had to reheat. I probably should enjoy that fresh off the grill to really get the enjoyment out of it. Good sammich, but won't make me forget Dalessandro's here in the 215 anytime soon. :thumbup:
Went to Dal's on a rec. Man, I really did NOT like that cheesesteak. Grey beef, steamed all to hell, piled mountain high on the griddle. No me gusta. That said, Im so in the minority, I keep trying cheesesteaks, hoping to get one that hits. They have to be so popular for a reason!

Two things:

What sandwich beats a Rueben? :)

And for whatever reason, I cannot swallow sliced mushrooms, black olives or water chestnuts...I literally cannot swallow them...diced is ok, must just be the texture I guess :(

If you like Italian beef, Luke's of Chicago is the best. Get the beef with a side of gravy and fries, will change your life.
Portillos > Al's > Luke's.

I've always thought Lukes has been better than Portillos, but both experiences have been in AZ. Haven't had Als - should probably get some good ones in Chicago when I visit. Watching The Bear now is inspirational.

If you're going to base all of your experience from AZ, there's an Al's in Scottsdale...

I’d say a good chicken parm beats a good Reuben. And a Reuben is my go-to first look for most places.

Portillos > Al's > Luke's.
Propping up an out of state chain restaurant is So Phoenix.

Yes, they’re one of the worst ownership groups in the NFL but as much as I’ve supported Kyler in the past, he does bear responsibility for this mess as well
The mess is older than K1 has been alive.
That’s just here in Arizona not including the crap years prior to moving here.

Don’t forget the Hillbillies of PV said they couldn’t be competitive without a stadium deal.

Well what do you know.

Get serious please.

We chased off Arians and he immediately goes to Tampa and wins a Super Bowl.

This is almost certainly AI right?
You know Chris Carter isnt invited to the NFL BBQ for saying this.

He’s totally right and the media in this city need to reference things like this directly to the Hillbillies of PV during interviews.

Make it a fricking story
