Visit Philly’s hoagie celebrations are about to get even more delicious.

The Great Philadelphia Hoagie Debate is going strong — you can enter to win a year’s supply of hoagies!

Next up: the With Love Hoagie Invitational takes place from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. on Thursday, November 3 in the Rotunda at The Shops at Liberty Place<.

Five finalists have been selected in the competition to design a new hoagie for Primo’s menu and have it be called the “With Love” Hoagie.

Hoagie lovers (read: you) and a panel of judges will taste test and vote for their favorite sandwich out of the five finalists’ creations, dished up for sampling by the Primo Hoagie’s kitchens. Judges include Councilman James F. Kenney, Primo’s owner Nick Papanier, Michael Klein and Ashley Primis from the Inquirer, and more.

You can register to sample all five hoagies for free. Just make sure you get to Liberty Place at 11:30 a.m. (or earlier!); supplies are limited. You’ll have to fill out a registration form, after which you’ll receive a card that you’ll drop in the bowl of whichever table’s hoagie you liked the most.

A sampling of Primo’s most popular offerings from their menu, separate from the competition, will also be available for sampling; no registration necessary for that.

There will be three winners. The People’s Choice winner (1) will receive a special prize, as will Michael Klein’s pick for the winner (2) on behalf of Philly.com.

And the big kahuna (1): the sandwich which receives the most judges’ votes will be christened the official With Love Hoagie, and will be added to Primo Hoagie’s menu, to be carried at all 70 shops in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland! The sandwich maker will receive an overnight stay in Philadelphia, Eagles tickets and name recognition at Primo’s.

Don’t miss out on the hoagie madness. Read below for the inside scoop on the five finalists’ hoagie recipes.
