PNC Park's Best Food To Digest While Pirates Cause Indigestion

PITTSBURGH, PA — The Pirates widely are predicted to be stomach-turning on the field this year, but the food at PNC Park will be anything but nausea inspiring.

The best edible? According to Thrillist, it's the pierogi hoagie at Manny's BBQ run by former Pirates catcher Manny Sanguillen.

The website took on the challenge of ranking ever Major League Baseball stadium by its food and PNC Park came in 6th place.

"Pittsburgh might not know much about quality baseball, but they certainly knows a thing or two about piling a bunch of stuff onto sandwiches and you'll (duh) find an outpost of famed yinzer legend Primanti Bros. in the concourses," the website stated.

"Manny’s BBQ offers various platters, including pulled pork sliders with slaw and baked beans," the website continued. "But the real star of the show is the pierogie hoagie with pulled pork, potato and cheese-stuffed pierogies (a Pittsburgh staple), and crispy onions on a pretzel bun. And there’s no better place to bite into the quintessential yinzer classic than dahntahn at PNC Park with a beautiful view of the City of Champions over the outfield wall, n’at."

The Pirates home opener occurs April 12 against the Chicago Cubs.
