The history of the meatball sub dates back to the early 20th century when Italian immigrants brought their culinary traditions to the United States. This iconic sandwich features savory meatballs smothered in marinara sauce, nestled in a soft, crusty Italian roll, and topped with melted cheese. The dish gained popularity in the Northeastern United States, particularly in cities like New York and Philadelphia, where Italian-American communities thrived. Today, the meatball sub can be found on menus across the country, with variations in the type of bread, meatball seasoning, and cheese selection. For an authentic experience, seek out a local Italian deli or pizzeria known for their homemade meatballs and fresh-baked bread.
