In Chicago, Italian Sausage Sandwiches are a local tradition specializing on Italian Beef and "Sassidge Sangwitches" (as the locals pronounce it). A popular version is the "Combo", where the sausage is nestled in with Italian Beef on a wet roll. Some places offer it with a marinara sauce and melted mozzarella.
