If I was going out to grab a sub, I’d be heading to Jersey Mike’s. No question about it. I’d get a sub Mike’s way, with vinegar and oil and salt and pepper and it’d disappear in no time. And if I wanted to make the same great sandwich at home, I’d make my copycat Jersey Mike’s sub. But if I’m in a big hurry and still want a great sandwich, I make my quick and easy cold cut sub sandwich. It’s not too different than what I can get at Jersey Mike’s. Main difference is that I use an off-the-shelf sub dressing that makes every sub great.
Don’t Forget The Salt And Pepper
It may sound odd, but I actually think the two ingredients that are essential to a tasty quick and easy cold cut sub sandwich are salt and pepper. Onions need seasoning. The tomatoes definitely need seasoning. And of course the lettuce needs it too.
No need to get fancy with the sandwich meats you use when you make your sub sandwich. Anything you like will do!
Quick and Easy Cold Cut Sub Sandwich
Ingredients
- 1 slice white onion separated into rings
- 1 sub roll split horizontally
- Beanos Submarine Dressing to taste
- 2 slices cheese cut into triangles (halved diagonally). I usually use Swiss, but pepper jack or cheddar are great too!
- 6 slices sandwich meat
- 3 slices tomato
- ½ cup iceberg lettuce shredded or chopped
- Kosher salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the onion in a small bowl of cold water for 5 minutes.
- Toast the sandwich roll as desired.
- Add the onion slices (shaking off any excess water first).
- Sprinkle the bottom roll with some of the dressing. Add a bit of salt and pepper.
- Add the cheese slices, followed by the sandwich meat, tomato and lettuce.
- Sprinkle with more of the dressing. Add a bit more salt and pepper.
- Add top bun and serve.
