House-Made Jerky And Sausage Sandwich

At the heart of Brigantine Island in Atlantic City, Ernest and Son stands out as a beacon for meat lovers seeking authentic flavors. Guy Fieri has singled out their Tailgater, a house-made jerky and sausage sandwich, for its spot-on balance of taste.

The fennel in the sausage sings through without overpowering the ensemble. Patrons are treated to a harmonious blend of tender sausage, sharp provolone, and freshly sliced rolls, ensuring each bite is packed with old-school charm.

Smothered Turkey Chops

At Kelsey and Kim’s Southern Cafe in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the spotlight shines on their unique take on turkey. They serve up fried turkey chops; think of them as a whimsical twist on a classic pork chop, but lighter and bursting with savory flavors.

These chops are generously coated in a crunchy breading and then covered in a rich, onion-infused homemade gravy. Guy Fieri found these chops to be quite the revelation, highlighting their tender texture and balanced seasoning.

It’s this kind of soul food that gets you talking and coming back for more, like their well-known pigs’ feet, soft as butter and swimming in a hearty broth. For the die-hard fans of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Kelsey and Kim’s smothered turkey chops are a must-try for an authentic Southern flavor encounter.

The Market Sloppy Joe

At Joe’s Meat Market in South Bound Brook, New Jersey, an incredible sandwich is redefining the classic Sloppy Joe. Crafted by Joe Lacourt, this Market Sloppy Joe isn’t your ordinary sandwich—it’s a towering creation of brined corned beef, succulent roast beef, and moist turkey enhanced with fresh coleslaw and a zesty Russian dressing.

Each layer is placed between three slices of bread, ensuring a mouthful of flavor with every bite. What sets this sandwich apart is the attention to detail with home-roasted meats that have been praised for their rich color and robust flavor, especially the corned beef.

The combination of these high-quality meats with the tangy kick of the Russian dressing creates a balance that Guy Fieri himself couldn’t resist. It’s a testament to what can be achieved when passion and high-quality ingredients come together, creating a must-try for any fan of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

Crab Cake Grilled Cheese

At The Grilled Cheese and Crab Cake Company in Somers Point, the crab cake grilled cheese is a must-try for seafood lovers and cheese enthusiasts alike. This creative twist on a classic grilled cheese features luscious crab meat and zesty Sriracha sauce, nestled between golden-brown, crispy bread slices.

Each bite offers a fusion of rich Monterey Jack cheese and tender crab, melding into a symphony of flavors with just the right kick of spice. They even kick it up a notch with the “angry” version for those who crave an extra punch; the addition of fiery jalapeños delivers a spicy challenge. Guy Fieri praised this sandwich for its hearty crab filling and perfect spice balance that keeps fans coming back for more.

Prosciutto Bread

In Robbinsville, New Jersey, Dolce and Clemente’s stands out with its mouthwatering prosciutto bread.

The family-run Italian deli impresses with an offering where each loaf is generously stuffed with authentic Italian meats like prosciutto, ham, mortadella, Sopressata, pepperoni, and laced with provolone cheese.

This bread is an unforgettable culinary experience that’s crunchy on the outside and richly flavorful inside.

During the bustling holiday season, the deli’s ovens work overtime. They bake thousands of these savory loaves that capture the essence of Italian tradition.

Host Guy Fieri couldn’t get enough of the bread’s fantastic flavor and satisfying crunch. This was a testament to the deli’s dedication to their craft.
