Description
According to those in the know, the best cheesesteak in the world is the one you get at Pat's King of Steaks in Philadelphia... or possibly Geno's Steaks, also in Philadelphia and not coincidentally located just steps away from Pat's. Yes, for decades, Pat’s and Geno’s have stood across the street from each other, turning a simple sandwich into a Philly institution. But how did this legendary cheesesteak rivalry begin? And why does choosing the “right” side still matter so much?
In this episode of Weird History, we dig into the strange, delicious, and surprisingly heated history of Pat’s vs. Geno’s, the origins of the Philadelphia cheesesteak, and the rivalry that helped make these two shops famous around the world.
Who do you think has the best cheesesteak? Pat's? Geno's? Or someone else? Let us know in the comments!
(Much like real history, this video was produced entirely by human beings.)
