I imagine you prefer the leaner meat to the fatty.

You would know from doing briskets that the point is fattier than
the flat. At old fashioned delis they would ask if you wanted lean,
fat or half and half. When I was young and skinny I would go for the
fatty version AND order a platter (sandwich comes with fries and
coleslaw, lots of fries, rather than just a sandwich).

 DS> This is probably a sandwich that is as messy as a sloppy Joe.

 DS> Title: OLD-FASHIONED BAKED BEAN SANDWICH

Except that it's usually served on a plate, open faced, and eaten
with a knife and fork. I sometimes have baked beans on toast as part
of a hearty weekend brunch.

Speaking of sloppy, I remember a dive bar we'd go to back in the 70s
for draft beer after a game. It was a really early sports bar. They
made really sloppy meatball sandwiches with hotdog buns dripping
with marinara sauce. I Googled and its still there!

The History of The Prescott

"Originally called The Preston Hotel ... the establishment was
re-baptized The Prescott in 1941, in recognition of its status as
the last watering hole between Ottawa and the town of Prescott, 100
kilometres down the Prescott Highway. This fact also earned it the
moniker "The Last Chance."

Founded in 1934 by Giuseppe Costantini and Antonio Disipio (on
Preston Street in Little Italy)

The Preston, now Prescott Hotel ... has served the community well in
its sponsorships of sports teams ... It boasts a hard-core clientele
dedicated to its meatball sandwiches.

Today it is a purposefully retro greasy spoon; an iconic throwback
to its days as a public house. The spirit of its memory lives on in
the drinking habits of its patrons and in its classic sandwiches."
