The chopped sandwich, also known as a "chop sandwich," has a rich history rooted in Southern cuisine. Originating in the Mississippi Delta region, this iconic dish features finely chopped or shredded meat, typically pork or beef, mixed with a tangy, vinegar-based barbecue sauce. The sandwich is often topped with coleslaw and served on a soft bun. Renowned chefs like John Currence of Oxford, Mississippi, have elevated the chopped sandwich to gourmet status, while legendary barbecue joints in Memphis, Tennessee, and North Carolina continue to perfect this beloved recipe. For an authentic experience, visit renowned establishments like Payne's Bar-B-Q in Memphis or Skylight Inn in North Carolina. The key to a perfect chopped sandwich lies in the tender, flavorful meat and the balance of sweet and tangy barbecue sauce. Whether slow-cooked or smoked, the meat should be the star of this Southern classic.
