When we do grab a sub, it’s Jersey Mike’s. We love the bread, the ratio of ingredients, oil and vinegar, and seasonings. We don’t eat out often, so when we get a craving for a sub we make a copycat of Jersey Mike’s sub at home.

Ingredients
For the sandwich
2loavesFrench breadsliced horizontally
½headiceberg lettuceshredded
1pounddeli sandwich meatsliced thin
2largetomatoessliced
1largesweet onionsliced
2teaspoonsdried oreganomore or less, to taste, crushed
Assemble the sandwich by dividing the meat between the bread halves.
Add the tomato and onion slices. Top with a few good handfuls of the lettuce.
Sprinkle the sandwiches with the red wine vinegar. Don't be shy with it.
Combine the canola and olive oils and sprinkle over the sandwiches. More is better, in my opinion.
Finally, sprinkle tops with the oregano and salt. Add the top halves of the bread, slice in half in the middle. Serve.
Notes
Note: The red wine vinegar you use should be diluted to 5%. I checked a few of the bottles available at our local grocery store and all were 5%, so I did not need to dilute the vinegar any further.
