On his journey to Jackson, Mississippi, for his CNN show, "Parts Unknown," Anthony Bourdain discovered a sandwich called "ears" at the Big Apple Inn and found it "hard to beat."

This Mississippi sandwich bursts with Southern flavor while comprising the simplest ingredients. It boasts a soft bun, crispy coleslaw, homemade hot sauce, mustard, and pig ears.

The chewy pig ears have a juicy flavor reminiscent of fatty bacon, and the crunchy coleslaw contrasts with the buttery bun and tangy sauces to create a harmony that Bourdain loved.
