Best Cuban Steak Sandwich in Miami List

El Rey de las Fritas 468 x 60 Banner

My Best Cuban Steak Sandwich in Miami (Pan con Bistec) list is another in my series where I’m trying to pass along my knowledge of Cuban Comfort Food. If you’re keeping tabs, the others are Chicharrones, Croquetas, Frita Cubana, Flan (undergoing a revamp), Milanesas, Pan con Lechon (coming sooner than later), and my Real Guide to Cuban Sandwiches in Miami.

For the uninitiated, here’s an accurate description of this delicacy:

A Pan con Bistec ingredients consist of thin, seasoned steak (palomilla), grilled onions, potato sticks, lettuce, tomato, and mayo on Cuban bread cut from a loaf. Sometimes the bread is pressed for an added crunch but not always.

The quality of ingredients varies and will affect the sandwich’s flavor; cheaper isn’t necessarily better. I always skip out on the lettuce and tomato; you won’t find those in my pictures.

Oh, one last thing. There are classic Cuban Steak Sandwiches (Pan con Bistecs), and then there are what I’ll call a new wave Pan con Bistec, which add sauces and variations of steak. They’re great, too, like Sanguich’s. It’s closer to a Philly cheesesteak but excellent nonetheless.

Like the others, this Best Cuban Steak Sandwich (Pan con Bistec) page will be revamped when I eat a mind-blowing Pan con Bistec that needs to be highlighted.
