Ohio has a very unique cuisine that's full of big, bold flavors and unique combinations. (Yes -- chili *does* belong on spaghetti, thank you very much.) Yet while there are plenty of places to grab a Southern-style barbecue or hearty Amish fare, East Coast-style sandwich shops are a little harder to come by in the Buckeye State... but not impossible. Enter Wario's Beef and Pork, a delicious sandwich shop in Columbus, Ohio, that specializes in massive, hulking, bigger-than-your-face sandwiches.
It's a well-known fact that a sandwich always tastes better when someone else makes it for you...

...especially if that "someone else" is one of the sandwich wizards at Wario's Beef and Pork.

Feeding a crowd? It might be a good idea to get a tray or two of sandwiches -- after folks get a taste of Wario's, they'll be hungry for more!

So what makes these Wario's so special, you ask? Simple: every single component of the sandwiches is thoughtfully and deliciously executed. The fresh-baked semolina rolls are impossibly soft yet sturdy, and the house-made tomato butter might have you forgoing ketchup forever.

The meat, of course, is the star, and everything from the shaved ribeye to the paprika-rubbed spicy coppa is pure carnivorous perfection.

Put it all together (pun intended!) -- with generous portions, of course -- and you have the makings of the best darn East Coast-style sandwich in Ohio.
