Copycat Jersey Mike's Sub

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

  • 2 loaves French bread sliced horizontally
  • ½ head iceberg lettuce shredded
  • 1 pound deli sandwich meat sliced thin
  • 2 large tomatoes sliced
  • 1 large sweet onion sliced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano more or less, to taste, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt more or less, to taste
  • red wine vinegar diluted to 5%, see note
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  • 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.
