Let's Get Started!

INGREDIENTS:

For these Hot Italian Subs Sandwiches you will need a few simple ingredients:

• Bread of your choice
• Hard Salami
• Pepperoni
• Ham
• Provolone Cheese, sliced
• Onion, sliced
• Banana Pepper Rings
• Black Olives, sliced
• Shredded Lettuce
• Mayonnaise
• Zesty Italian Dressing
• Oil

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  Prepare the Ingredients

Start by preparing all your ingredients.  Slice the lettuce, tomato, and onion thinly.  Cut the sub rolls in half, but don't slice all the way through.  You want to create a pocket for the fillings.  

2.  Assemble the Sub

Layer the bottom half of the roll with a generous amount of the Italian meats.  Start with salami, followed by the pepperoni, and then the ham.  

3.  Add the Cheese, Onions, Peppers, and Olives

To the meats with provolone cheese, sliced onions, banana pepper rings, and black olives.  In that orders.

4.  Toast the Sub

Preheat your broiler to HIGH.  Place the assembled sub on a baking sheet and place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and brown and bubbly.  

5.  Season and Dress

Add the lettuce and mayonnaise.  Then drizzle with the Italian dressing.  Sprinkle with a little Italian seasoning for added flavor.  

6.  Serve Hot

Use a knife or spatula to hold the filling in the sub while you fold it in half and serve HOT!  The melty cheese and warm meats will create a deliciously satisfying sandwich.  

TIPS FOR THE PERFECT HOT ITALIAN SUB:

• Bread Choice:  Opt for a good quality sub roll or Italian bread.  The bread should be sturdy enough to hold all the fillings, but still soft on the inside.  
• Meat Selection:  Don't skimp on the quality of meats.  Authentic Italian deli meats make a BIG difference in taste.
• Cheese Options:  While provolone is traditional, you can also use mozzarella or a combination of cheeses. 
• Extra Toppings:  Feel Free to customize with additional toppings like olives, roasted red peppers, or a smear of pesto.

Making Hot Italian Subs at home is easy and rewarding.  With fresh ingredients and a little bit of prep work, you can enjoy a delicious, homemade sub that rivals any deli.  This recipe is perfect for a quick meal or a special treat.  Enjoy your hot Italian sub with side of chips or a salad for a complete meal. 

And as always...
