Mmmm, I miss some really good subs I used to get.

In Florida, I used to get this chicken parmesean sub that was soo oooey gooey and delicious.

In Colorado, I would get a meatball sub where they thinly sliced the meatballs and so there was an excellent cheese/meatball/sauce ratio.  Yummmmmmm............

The foods this conversation has made me remember and miss desperately:

Romanburger (no onions), from Mr. Hero.
Pizza sub with lettuce and tomato, from Subway
Prime Rib and Peppercorn with tomato (no onions), from Quizno's.
Overstuffed corned beef sandwich (no onion), from Panini's Bar and Grill

If I could have any one of those right now... *wistful sigh*  Any one of them.  Any one.  <looks around>  Any will do... ... please?

Tri tip. Sliced, or smoked with BBQ sauce..... I just can’t seem to find a butcher here who has a clue, even with Photos and diagrams.

5. Beef tri-tip: The tri-tip has nearly always been sold in butcher shops but still connected to the rump. The tri-tip is located at the bottom of the rump.
From: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3144242/The-five-curious-cuts-beef-cheaper-ones-available-supermarket-heard-them.html

According to Wikipedia, tri tip is called aiguillette baronne in France and is left whole as a roast. In northern Germany, it is called Bürgermeisterstück or Pastorenstück, in Austria Hüferschwanz, and in southern Germany it is called Tafelspitz. In Spain, it is often grilled whole and called the rabillo de cadera.  In Argentine asado, it is known as colita de cuadril. In Brazilian churrasco, it is known as maminha.

So... yeah.  Some information to help you talk to the butcher.  Maybe s/he knows one of those terms (particularly the French or German one?).

Do they even still exist? They were closing most of the stores when we were leaving SandyEggo.

I have no idea, actually!  I haven't been back since I moved here 6 years ago.  There was one in my town when I left,  though.  That was my guilty pleasure splurge-on-expensive-terrible-fast-food.

Yeah, they were good. Looks like not many left, though.

Probably because they let rats in their pepper bar.

Oh I enjoyed Quiznos - We had one right around the corner from my office in South Florida, so it was cheap and tasty to go there for lunch out. 
I've never gotten food on my underpants!

I'm such a sucker for alcohol at the National Trust shop.  My favourite way to learn history.
