Italian Grinder, Hogie

I like chili, kraut, cheese on a dog then broil it a tad to melt the cheese on top.

Hot pepper relish is awesome. With kraut, hot sauce........

I just had Thumann hotdogs tonight on toasted buttered potato rolls tonight.

Well I got that authentic Italian Sub today. I hate to say it, but it needed some mayo! It had oil & vinegar on it, but I couldn't taste it. Maybe they didn't put enough on it.

Rather than try to make the olive oil, red wine vinegar, seasoning mix I use krafts zesty italian dressing and Regina red wine vinegar. Sometimes I add extra olive oil. The red wine vinegar really perks up the taste. Mayo applied first on the bread works for me. Then the cheese, meat, lettuce, tomato, oregano, salt, pepper, black olives, red roasted peppers I’m in heaven.

I could eat the whole grinder or cut it in half and get two lunches out of it.
 
my rule for hot dogs:
top with everything on the table, then check the fridge for more.

I been mail ordering Thumanns hotdogs the beef/pork with the natural casing. I grab two dogs, bake them in the toaster oven. Toast some potato hotdog rolls, yummy.
 
On a dog I put mustard onion and hot pepper relish, around here if you say ketchup everyone will stop what their doing and look at you.[emoji1]

Definitely not Jalapeños!!! But, what ever your tastes are what matters!!!

Usually, the crushed red pepper relish or Bananas.
What kind of hot peppers are supposed to go on the authentic Italian Sub- Jalapenos or Banana Peppers? What about Parmesan Cheese? I'm going to try ordering one today from Subway.

I’ve never been in a Joisey Mike’s even though they’re all around the place. Since there’s no real Italian deli around here I may just give it a try.
Or wait until I go back up to NY in a few months. :D
 
Re: Joisey Mike's......

Thier bread could be better, but it's an ok "chain italian". The good thing is the deli meats are sliced fresh to order.

When I was staying weekends on the horse farm they had frozen grinders from the A&P market. Bologna and melted cheese was pretty good when your a kid.
 
Try making a salad with krafts zesty italian dressing and Regina red wine vinegar.
 
WHERE I GREW UP, NEITHER.

"NORMALLY" it was roasted red peppers, but the customer is always right, SO they will put on whatever you have the stugats to ask for. ;) As for that white processed whatever that comes in a shaker bottle & smells like feet, oye ve.

The pepperoncino. Sort of a generic name, usually similar to the banana pepper but can go way up the scale similar to a red chile.
 
Katz's deli in NYC made the best corned beef on rye. except we order it on nice crispy Italian bread. Now there was a sammich to die for. Back in Astoria Queens NYC an Italian family owned an Italian deli named Karl's deli. They'd start cooking around 5am and just walking in there you'd gain 5 pounds. Their meatball heros and sausage heros were always hot and stuffed with meatballs or sausage plus they gave you a plastic knife and fork to help out. Down the road was an Italian bakery and my buddies uncle was the baker. We'd sneak out of work park in the back alley and always left with a big paper sack and two quarter stick of butter. It didn't get any better than that. Then you had Karl Ehmers for real German deli meats,like labercase, good all beef German baloney, Some good german rye bread and German mustard. At one time Karl's would ship just about anything in the store all over the country. But sadly I don't think they are in business anymore. Down here in Louisiana they have Johnsonville Italian saugsage in mild and sweet and hot. That and some Lejeunes French baked bread will do very nicely.My wife will take a pack of the sweet sausage and cut it into chunks while the potatoes are browningand stick that in a frying pan and cover the sausage and potatoes are cooking.enough for two people now that our eldest daughter and her husband have their house and both the food money and electrical bill have gone down a lot. But when lazy Couple hoagie rolls and some regular spam topped with bread and butter pickles will do. Wally world sells Italian bread but no was is it like what you can get back in NYC. Frank
 
It's a sub, until it's toasted then it's a grinder. A real Italian gets hot peppers (must be a relish it's red soupy and ground up). With olive oil.

That's the vernacular around here anyway. Nice thing about making your own is it comes out the way you want it.
