Submarine House Poll: Cheese Whiz or Cheese? + Win a Super Duper Cheesesteak !

September 11, 2018 By Dayton937

WHIZ or WHIZ-OUT ?

“To Whiz or not to Whiz, that is the question….”

Dayton has it’s share of good places to grab a Philly Cheesesteak.   The Submarine House is at the top of this list and are one of the few spots that offer their cheesesteaks with a choice of Nacho Cheese Whiz sauce or Sliced Cheese.

Foodies have battled back and forth on which is the best way to eat a Philly cheesesteak.  So we look to you, our fellow, hungry Daytonians to solve this with a foodie poll.

Today we ask an age-old question that Cheesesteak lovers have been gnashing teach over for decades…. on your Philly Cheesesteak, do you prefer..

CHEESE WHIZ or CHEESE ?

Comment below, and one winner will be selected at random and win a Super Duper Cheesesteak from Submarine House, compliments of The Food Adventure Crew !  You can get your cheesesteak how you like it .. with the WHIZ or CHEESE !

Before you answer — what is a Philly Cheesesteak ?

Philly with Provolone Cheese option at Sumbmarine House

WHAT IS A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK ?
It is a sub, served on long, crusty french or italian style roll filled with thinly sliced and possibly sauteed beef and melted cheese. In Philadelphia, the cheese preference is Cheez Whiz. In other parts of the country it seems that shredded or sliced American, sharp or provolone are the preference. Many foodies say that the essence of cheesesteak preparation lies in the balance of flavors, ingredients , texture and the messy goodness, or “drip” factor.  Other toppings may include grilled onions, green peppers, mayo, sautéed mushrooms, and hot or sweet banana peppers. Even ketchup and French fries have topped a sub, as well as lettuce and tomato. The ultimate street food, a Philly Cheeesteak is a portable, hunger killing beast.

PHILLY CHEESESTEAK BABYLON:
In 1930 the sandwich world was turned upside down when Philadelphia hot dog vendor Pat Olivieri decided to grill beef one day.  A taxicab driver noticed the incredible aroma and ordered a steak sandwich. The rumor of the delicious lunch spread across town in a week. People from all around the city came to try the steak sandwiches.  He decided to expand and Olivieri opened up a shop on 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue, and called it “Pat’s King of Steaks”. The sandwich morphed as he began adding cheese to the recipe. Today the grill is open 24/7 and has a legendary rival cheesesteak shop across the street called “Geno’s” who claims they are the ones who added the cheese idea. Geno’s is also open 24/7. For decades, the two family owned businesses have been the center of discussion of who has the best cheesesteak in town. Who cut the cheese first? We don’t know…

How do you like your Philly ?

Fast forward to 1973 and history of Dayton Cheeseteaks takes shape.

THE HISTORY OF DAYTON’S SUBMARINE HOUSE:

THE SUBMARINE HOUSE OPENS IN DAYTON, 1973
–1973: 
The very first Submarine House was opened on Brown Street near the University of Dayton by Doug Kidd.   It was the first in the area to introduce the east coast style Cheese steak Sub.   Many UD students and Dayton natives had their first Philly Cheesesteak here.   One customer from Dayton, Gary Danner would eat there often.   He loved the subs so much, that in 1978 he became the first franchisee.  His store is still located today at 7850 N. Main Street.

–1984:
Gary bought the entire franchise from Doug.   By this time they were cranking out hundreds of subs.  The Submarine House continued to grow and expand around the suburbs.   Gary’s sons, Jason, Brody, and Seth worked for Submarine House as kids, and after college 2 of them went to work full-time for the company.

–1997:
Jason Danner opened his first Submarine House

—1999:
Brody Danner opened his first Submarine House.

—2006, The first sports bar concept, Submarine House Bar and Grill opens in Vandalia.   Jason and Brody have since opened numerous Bar and Grill Submarine House franchises. But you can still find their dad Gary, and wife Susan, at the Submarine House on North Main Street.

Submarine House in Centerville

—2018, The Super Duper Cheesesteak Challeenges have raised nearly 100k for charities over the past few years

Now  its time for you to make your choice and comment below…
Do you prefer your Philly Cheese Steaks with CHEESE WHIZ or CHEESE ?

ONE WINNER CHOSEN AT RANDOM WILL WIN A SUPER DUPER CHEESESTEAK !

The Food Adventures Crew has a say ……..

Big Ragu says: Provolone Cheese !
Jackie says : Provolone Cheese
Jessie says: I rarely eat dairy, so no processed whiz, give me organic cheese !

We want to hear your vote and maybe you will be the one sharing free 16 inches of heaven with us at the SUBMARINE HOUSE !

There have been draw dropping qualifiers and big mouths chewing.  We have seen huge subs inhaled and have seen disapointing times, but all  the events have always had one good outcome.  All proceeds this year support the Pink Ribbon Girls, a local charity focused on helping support area women facing breast cancer, and helping fund research for a cure.

Chef House will be judging and making sure no crumbs are left behind !

Now it all comes down to Saturday… one sub and a dozen of Dayton’s fastest eaters….

Submarine House Crowns Champ, Announces Expansion

April 17, 2016 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

Andrew Oakes, 2016 Super Duper Cheesesteak Champ

A big crowd watched the Super Duper Cheesesteak finals Saturday afternoon at The Beavercreek Submarine House.   Of course your source for Dayton food scoop, Food Adventures was on hand.  After an hour of build up, they brought out the cheesesteaks like the Star Wars “Imperial March.”

The crowd grew silent, the judges looked at the stopwatch.. and GO.. the contest was on.  Nine Champions from each individual Submarine House store around Dayton, were now facing each other in an “eat-off” that has become an annual tradition.

The Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge is where you must eat a 16 inch long Super Duper Cheesesteak in under 16 minutes.

“Super Duper” in Submarine House language means a 16 inch cheesesteak with triple the meat, triple the cheese, and the “works” toppings.  The works is onions, mushrooms & peppers cooked with the steak, mushrooms, and topped with cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato and hot pepper relish.

NO SUBSTITUTIONS, NO CHANGES, you must eat the sandwich “as is.”  This challenge is a true Food Adventure!  Not for the squeamish, this contest is fast paced.  Don’t blink, or you could miss the finish !

As the nine contestants took their first bites, 3 leaders emerged, 2015 champ Aaron Smith, 2013 champ Andrew Oakes and 2014 champ Clayton Naylor. They chomped, they chewed, and almost spewed, but instead washed it down intermittently with water.

Now the scoop on what happened next…..

 

HERE’S THE SKINNY:

Submarine House’s 16 Inch Super Duper Cheesesteak

— The Super Duper Cheesesteak Challenge benefits Dayton’s Children’s Hospital.  The Submarine House owners, Jason and Brody Danner, started the event by presenting a check in excess of $15,000 to the hospital’s charity fund.  What an incredible donation.

— Andray Simmons, a young man who is the goodwill ambassador from Dayton Children’s Hospital was introduced to the crowd.  Andray is battling sickle cell disease, a genetic blood disorder.  He thanked the crowd for the charity support, and the whole place erupted in applause.  A touching moment for the crowd and Andray, who was there with his family.

— More money was given away as they drew a $500, $1,000 and $10,000 cash prize for 3 different, lucky Submarine House customers!  It was insane!

Chef House Judging the contest with the Paparazzi everywhere

— Then came the eating contest… Judging the contest were Chef House and the Big Ragu from Food Adventures, Lisa Grigsby from Dayton Dining, Brian Jarvis from Beavercreek City Council, WHIO’s Larry Hansgen, K99’s Frye Guy, and finally Sallie Taylor, Zac Pitts, and Katie Kenney from Living Dayton TV show.

— The winner was …. ANDREW OAKES, from the Centerville store, with a time of 1 minute, 36seconds.  Andrew becomes the first ever “two time” champ.  A close second was Clayton Naylor and close third was Aaron Smith.  Both men were literally a few seconds away from winning.  Trophies were passed out, photos were taken, and interviews made.

— SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:  Jason and Brody Danner shared the information with us, and Larry Hansgen announced to the crowd… Submarine House will be EXPANDING.  The Centerville Submarine House is moving to a larger location on 725 where the old Blockbuster Video was located.  There will be a Submarine House opening up in Huber Heights in the old Fifth Third branch at 5376 Taylorsville Road.  (((BOOM! A Food Adventure is gonna take place there soon !)))

So that’s it folks, another year of cheesesteaks in the record books.

As the fans and “paparazzi” left the building, we all promised to do it again next year.  In the meantime, order a Super Duper Cheesesteak for yourself.  There is a reason they call it “16 inches of heaven.”

Milano’s: A Dayton Food Adventure

May 16, 2013 By Dayton937 9 Comments

The Atlantic City Italian Sub – Get the baked option with pizza sauce

Atlantic City style subs that would make Snooki proud and Pizza loved by many locals.  This is today’s Milano’s.  But, Dayton Originals like THE FOOD ADVENTURES CREW remember when there was only one Milano’s on Brown Street.   Purists will tell you, the subs tasted better then, because the old ovens were ‘seasoned’ from years of spices burnt into the baking area.  Whether you love the “old school, dirty Milano’s”, or the “clean, modern Milano’s”, you can’t deny that this is one of the most popular eateries in the Miami Valley.

HERE’S THE SKINNY:

– Founded in 1969 by Ron Woods and partners after visiting a restaurant in Lima, Ohio named Milano’s.  They loved the food so much, they opened a place in Dayton the next year and decided to name it Milano’s.

– Sold to ThreeWitt Enterprises in 2001, revamped Brown Street location in 2005. Opened 2 more restaurants in 2008 in Beavercreek and Miami Township (St Rt 741).

– All-American style menu with subs, pizza and craft beer selections

– Family Friendly with tableside games and an arcade area that kids enjoy

Little known secret: The Calzones are delicious!

– Great outdoor patio dining area for enhanced fun on good weather days, and it smells better than Atlantic City.

 

MUST EATS:

– Calzones:  A little known fact is that the calzones are great at Milano’s.  Whatever ingredients you get, there is plenty of mozzarella cheese inside to cope with, so use that marinara dipping sauce.

–  Atlantic City Italian Sub:  Capicola, and 2 types of salami topped with provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, oil, and spices.  There is an option on this sub where they bake the sub and add pizza sauce.  This is what makes the sandwich, so get the baked option with sauce!

– The CSP Sub:  It comes with capicola, genoa salami, and provolone.  It is topped with the usual lettuce, tomatoes, onions, oil, and spices.  so good it will make J-Woww say “Wow.”

– Pizza:  We think the sauce is tangy and tasty, so no matter what the toppings, you will have yourself a good “Situation.”   The crust is made from scratch, daily.  Milano’s touts the fact that they were voted favorite pizza in Dayton in 2011.  Try it for yourself and let us know what you think.

– Meatball Sub: Have yourself a meatball day and dive into this saucy little number.   This sub is filling, fun, a tad messy, but worth every bite.

Honorable Mention: The generous order of Garlic bread with Cheese is as big as the Trump Taj Mahal.   The Cheesesteak sub is also worth a try.

Milano’s  has decent side salads that go well with any main event.  They also have a reasonably priced kids menu.  Be warned, this place gets busy during peak lunch and dinner times.

 

Just in the mood for a beer?  The inviting bar area always has some ‘off the wall’ choices on tap or in bottles.  It is a great place to unwind with a cold one.

For the record, the Big Ragu, whose last name is Milano, has nothing to do with ownership of the restaurant.   It doesn’t stop him from playing tricks on the wait staff with his I.D. from time to time.  He wishes he did own it, because the food at Milano’s turns The Food Adventure Crew into a couple of Jersey teens.  Please browse through our photo album below for some amazing pics from our Food Adventures to Milano’s.

If you are one of the few who hasn’t tried Milano’s, or you are new to the Dayton area, take a night and check this spot out.  Go for our “must eats” and see if you enjoy their Atlantic City tastes.

Daytonians, sound off below!!  Are the Milano’s subs better now or did you like the old ovens on Brown Street?  Any other comments? Please share them with us!
