It is lunchtime, and your stomach is beginning to grumble… but what should you eat? While leftovers or fast food are always on the table, there is a MUCH better option, which comes in the form of a delicious sandwich. Is your mouth watering yet? Then follow us to South Dakota’s downright tasty Pickle Barrel restaurant:
Hiding away in Sioux Falls, the Pickle Barrel is billed as offering the best sandwich in South Dakota for 10 years, which you will agree with after just one bite.
"Size matters at the Pickle Barrel, and our sandwiches are huge," boasts the restaurant, which hires master "sandwich crafters" to create its culinary masterpieces.
Unlike chain sandwich shops, the Pickle Barrel has a strict standard that begins with homemade bread and super-fresh ingredients, which they use to make both their classic and unique menu options.
What kind of sandwiches can you find at the Pickle Barrel? The menu offers something for every taste and hunger level, beginning with hot pepper steak or pulled pork and ending with cold Italian, chicken salad, and roast beef.
In addition to these traditional flavors, the Pickle Barrel has concocted a few new tastes of its own, such as the Big Sky Special (bacon, turkey, and cheddar cheese), Sturgis Chicken (grilled chicken, onions, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and your choice of sauce), and the South of the Border Cheesesteak (chopped beef, onions, salsa, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese).
