This sandwich has it all: white bread that melts in your mouth, thick corned beef, spicy slaw, fiery fries and everything you need on a plate all under one bun. Trying to give the Primanti Bros their due we kept the model and spiced up the heat.

Bake your fries according to package instructions and toss with olive oil, 2 teaspoons cayenne, chili, salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, mayonnaise, hot sauce, lemon and remaining cayenne powder. Season to taste with salt and pepper and then dress the cabbage with your spicy aioli.
