POLISH BOY

The Polish Boy is a sandwich unique to the barbecue restaurants of Cleveland, Ohio. Its main ingredient is a massive length of crisp-cased, juice-spurting kielbasa. It is packed into a bun along with French fries and coleslaw, and the whole, huge cylinder of food is sopped with radiant barbecue sauce. You might think utensils would come in handy, but experienced customers easily do it by hand, rolling up sleeves, leaning forward to avoid drippage, and using sheaves of napkins.
