"corned beer" news and stories

A massive meal, the Primanti's Sandwich is the signature sandwich of the Primanti Bros restaurant chain in Pittsburgh, PA. The sandwich is stacked high with layers of tomatoes, coleslaw, corned beef, cheese and french fries, all sandwiched between two thick slices of Italian bread. The sandwich was supposedly invented in the 1930's, during the Great Depression. Since the restaurant owners couldn't afford luxuries like plates and cutlery while they were starting up, the simply piled everything into the sandwich. The entirely in-hand meal was sold as a convenient, filling and cheap dinner option to all the night shift workers in the area. It must have been a success right off the bat, since Primanti Bros is still going strong with their famous sandwich over 70 years later.
