I've tried a number of them and am planning on John's Roast Pork today. What's your thoughts on the best philly around?

Been to Pat's, Tony Luke's, Campos, George's in Reading Terminal, and now John's Roast Pork.

George's and John's were both on this trip. Neither offered cheese whiz but both had sharp provolone. Both were very good. Hard to pick a favorite out of the two. I can't say I've really ever had a bad one.

I was intrigued with the pork as they were flying off the grill, but wasn't going to try that on this journey.
I had to get a DiNic's roast pork last time I was there, since I, for some reason, never got one when I was traveling there frequently.

There is one of those in the reading terminal which is close to where we are staying. Maybe I'll have to check that out.

I thought that was the only location. It gets fucking crowded, though. I had to sit back and watch what everyone else was doing, cause I didn't want to fuck up.

Send the cheese steaks out to Colorado

There are various restaurants out here with Philly cheese steaks on their menu but no...just no.. they all fail

About the best one that I had out here were from Taste of Philly
It has been awhile since I have been out to Philly and had a "true" Philly cheese steak but I do like the ones at Taste of Philly
It sucks though because I had one in my town but they closed
I could go to Denver but that's going to be about a 15-20 minute drive for me depending on traffic

Yeah, they're very hit or miss here. Most often, they are just way too dry and chewy.

Was Pat the racist guy or the other guy across the way? Regardless, I got one once from one of those places and it was damn good.
Fuck off back to Mexico or speak English.
