hey you guys even redeyes finds this tangent distracting
now that's exactly the type of content this thread deserves.
what would big hurt eat?
no condiments 27?
Neat...
oh nice, that is the best condiment imo
On a paper plate...
I know that... I'm the best you've ever seen.
I forgot how much I love italian grinders/hoagies, but I picked up a premade one at the store at it reminded me!
Here's my recipe for a jimmy johns style. I did this last year I think.
meat: deli ham + italian meat trio. I picked up a pack at the store, its pepperoni, salami, and something else.
veg: thinly sliced lettuce and onion. I think jimmy johns soaks their onyons in water to take some of the bite out, I'll not be doing that. I'd add tomato but they suck around here now. I can skip veg entirely if lettuce is too pricey.
else: olives and pickled hot jalapenos. I tried chopping them out to make a muffaletta type thing, but I prefer the olives cut in half. You could also have the jalapenos on the side
dressing:
I went to a local poker place with bad food. ordered an italian sandwich, it was an abomination, but it did have an interesting sweet oil dressing.
jimmys johns oil recipe is this:
"1 cup of a mixture of 90% canola oil/10% extra virgin olive oil. 1/3 cup of red wine vinegar, and one teaspoon of salt"
I'd add some honey for that sweetness. I love the idea of pickled red onions, apparently they last a decent bit in the fridge!

This turned out great! Used the basic winco hoagie rolls. If it was on a fresh telera roll or french bread it would be even better.
tillamook swiss cheese, black forest ham, italian cured meat trio. Olives, iceberg lettuce (one head for $1.69) , with pepperoncini/pickled jalapenos on the side.
Splashed with olive oil / canola oil / red wine vinegar / salt / honey/ a lot of fresh ground pepper.
just mayo
ok here's the procedure: ITALIAN SANDWICH
bun: hoagie bun, french roll, telera, etc. cut in 1/2 and hollow out top bun. This is to reduce the bread:meat ratio, and provides a place for the lettuce to camp.
I like the bun to be roughly the same size has the ham slice.
heel: two slices cheese: two slices ham, folded to fit the bun: shingle one layer of each, 2-3 pieces: pepperoni: genoa: salami
Now we can take a break to assemble the veg. Thinly slice some onion and a bunch of lettuce. Tomato optional. Cut 6 or so olives into 2-3 pieces, I use scissors.
starting where we left off: add onion on top of the meat: add olives (i do 4-5 rows of 3 pieces): add pepperoncini or pickled jalapeno between the olives.
Next, condiments. Apply a liberal amount of mayo to the crown. mound in a bunch of lettuce. You can now add a vinagrette (3:1 oil : red wine vinegar. Add salt, fresh ground pepper, and a splash of honey if you like sweetness). I have mine in a squirt bottle, proceed to squirt the lettuce liberally, or set aside and squirt as you like.
You should have a crown with lettuce and a meat heel with toppings. Combine the two, insert a toothpick for stability. there you go!
Not in love with the veggie to meat ratio, but that wouldn’t stop me from finding out. Am in love with the effort and the pictures. Hope she was nice.
I would like to eat that.
