This Is The 'Most Famous Sandwich' In California

From coast to coast, one thing unites Americans more reliably than traffic complaints and arguing over sports: sandwiches!

Every state has that one beloved handheld masterpiece that locals swear by and tourists can’t leave without trying. Whether it's smothered in sauce, stacked a mile high, or fried to golden perfection, these sandwiches are more than lunch, their identity, pride, and often, a delicious mess.

No GPS coordinates needed here. We’re talking California icons, not hole-in-the-wall secrets. These are the undisputed sandwich champions of their regions, from the smoky pulled pork of the South to the meat-packed giants of the Midwest, and even the quirky creations only locals would dream up.

So grab a napkin and get ready to meet the sandwich that defines California.

According to a list compiled by Vine Pair, the most famous sandwich in California is the French Dip sandwich.

Here's what Vine Pair had to say about the state's most popular sandwich:

"While some sandwiches have remained central to their home regions, others, like the French Dip, have expanded their reach nationwide. Two Los Angeles-based eateries, Philippe’s and Cole’s, claim to have created the hot roast beef sandwich, which is served on a long French roll with a side of au jus for dipping."
