Win two tix to the May 6 Philly Sandwich Experiment

Following up last year's successful Cheese Experiment, Theo Peck and Nick Suarez are bringing another installment of their roving Food Experiments events to town — this year, approximately 25 amateur chefs will go bread to bread in a sandwich battle. Going down on Sunday, May 6 at 2 p.m. at the Underground Arts building (1200 Callowhill St.), the competition will feature contestants interpreting the sandwich theme any way they see fit, and their creations will be judged by a panel of judges that includes Emilio Mignucci of Di Bruno's and Lily Cope of COOK. Pecks tells us there are still a few slots left for competitors; head here to apply.

Aside from bragging rights, winners will receive prizes from sponsors like Le Creuset, Brooklyn Brewery and Wusthof knives. The grand prize winner will be flown (yes, flown from Philly) to Brooklyn to compete in the nationals. Whose sandwich will become king of the north? Find out by purchasing $12 tickets (includes admission, bites and a Brooklyn beer). Or try your luck here: Meal Ticket has a pair of tix to the event that we're giving away. To enter, simply LEAVE A BRIEF COMMENT ON THIS POST DESCRIBING YOUR FAVORITE PHILLY SANDWICH AND WHY IT'S YOUR FAVE. You have between right now and noon this coming Wednesday, May 2. Be sure to comment/register using an email address you check frequently, as that's how we'll alert our winner. Good luck and happy sandwiching.

    My favorite NEW philly sandwich is the short rib at American Sardine Bar. Definitely the best short rib I've had here, and the spicy cheddar is killer. Awesome combinations in awesome portion sizes.

    By flown, I hope they mean the lightening fast Chinatown bus.

    I LOVE the ruben at Coventry. It's a bit messy, (put a bib on if you're wearing a suit) but oh so delicious. The portion size is massive, and well worth the wait to takes to create.

    DiNic's roast pork with sharp provolone, peppers, and ALL THE HORSERADISH. It is my favorite because not only is it a classic Philly style sandwich, but every component is made to perfection- the sloooowwww roasted pork, the peppers in their mystical delicious marinade, the provolone that balances it all out- I could go on for hours. Believe me when I tell you that piled together these flavors blend to create pure bliss. Also the guy that works there isn't to bad to look at, am I right ladies?

    Since it's not distinctly "Philly" I'll rule out Capriotti's Bobbie (though it's all I've been thinking about lately) and go with DiNic's roast pork as well. I'll take mine sans horseradish, but double the broccoli rabe and sharp provolone.
