ABOUT THE RECIPE:
The National Sandwich Idea contest was held between 1956 and 1981. It was sponsored by the Wheat Flour Institute. Each year 20 sandwich recipes, created by Food Service professionals, were chosen as the top sandwich recipes from hundreds of entries.

The Dilly Beef Sandwich was the number #1 recipe chosen in 1977.

It was created by Wesley Pollock of St. Louis, MO.

The Dilly Beef Sandwich combines dill pickles, sliced tomatoes and sliced roast beef with a savory onion spread and crunchy bean sprouts on rye bread.
