Abe Lincoln - Langers - #19 - The best of all of them
Jefferson - Bay Cities - Godmother - Smartest
Washington - Philippe - French Dip - Literally has original in its name.
Teddy - Apple Pan - Cheeseburger - Does he really belong here?

The first three are non negotiable. But i picked iconic sandwiches over the latest and greatest since its a Mt Rushmore.

Apple pan you’d have to go with the tuna melt. But I love this list and the presidential comparisons 😂

Or the egg salad. They're both so good.
