<<<"I know them as Jewish Sloppy Joes. They're delicious. Often they are
like a club sandwich in that they have three thin slices of rye bread.

<<<You're in NJ, too, aren't you? Did you have the sandwich in the area
of Essex/Morris Counties?

------------------
You may have something there as to it being regional.I lived and worked
in Morristown and they were as Nancy described.The ones we made in the
restaurant were different combos of overstuffed
meats,dressings,saurkraut and melted cheese.It was definitly a 2 hand
sandwich.They were served on rye and on rolls.
Never found them anywhere else under "sloppy joes".made that way in
other states....just the hamburger mix on a bun kind...
