Oh, Roast Beef Poboys.  
If you're from the South, you know exactly how we feel about them.  
Gravy dripping down ya fingers to slurp up after you digest your bite... Wait... Can I admit that?!
The dirtier the BETTER!
Spice it up a little just to give you a kick at the end. It's a tasty sandwich for any time of the day and any day of the week.
Don't forget to wipe your chin! 

I love to buy Jimmy John’s “day old” bread for these. You get a rather large loaf for just 50cents!  It’s not much smaller than a loaf of french bread which is triple the price.
