I would say both.

North Carolina would have to be the BBQ pork sandwich, with a dollop
of slaw on top. Eastern Carolina is more vinegar and red pepper
flakes sauce, Western Carolina is more mustard based sauce, and I
think you get out of the Carolinas it's mostly tomato based BBQ
sauces, but it's all good.

I lived in Cincinnati for a number of years and traveled all over the
state, and can't think of a sandwich that represents Ohio. Cincinnati
had no signature sandwich, as it was famous for it's Cincinnati Chili,
along with Goetta, and Graeter's Ice Cream. Speaking of Graeter's, it
is finally starting to show up here in the Greenville area. The Fresh
Market carries Graeter's now, along with Publix.
