Everyone thinks they know what makes a great hoagie… until they come to Hoagie Throwdown. Last year, we watched Philadelphia's most iconic, old-school hoagies go head-to-head with the city's most creative chefs, who completely reimagined what a hoagie could be.

This year, Hoagie Throwdown is back on Sunday September 27th at Other Half Brewing. One of last year's contenders, Chef Chad Durkin, already has his eyes on the championship! He tells what's new at Porco's Porchetteria, Small Oven Pastry Shop, and Breezy's Deli, regales us with stories of sailboats and Cake Boss, and calls out other Philly chefs to rise to the challenge of Hoagie Throwdown… Get tickets at DeliciousCityPodcast.com to throw down with all the hoagies, pro wrestling, and craft beer you can handle.
