How to make it
- Here are my tips and advice:
- Order a large 6 ft bread from your deli or bakery .
- In my area the bread costs about $20 plus a refundable fee
- for the board it comes on.
- I have been making my own 6 foot subs for years for all sorts of parties and I enjoy the ingredients of my choice.
- Obviously to do this one needs a large enough vehicle
- to retrieve the bread and counter space to prepare !
- Pick up the bread on the day you plan to serve this.
- It will fit into a van.
- One needs a long table to lay the bread with board on.
- Slice bread in half with a serrated knife.One person
- to help hold the bread and the other to slice.
- Spread one half of bread with mayonnaise and the other half
- with mustard.
- Then layer on the meats . It helps to have two people to do this.
- Use long wooden bamboo skewers or very long toothpicks to secure sections of the sandwich together.
- One can cut a good 30 pieces - more if cut a bit smaller.
- Unless one has access to a restaurant walk in cooler to store the sandwich, it is best to prepare 1/2 hour prior to serving.
- I usually slice the vegetables ahead of time using a hand mandolin or slicer.
- Vegetables are then stored in plastic storage bags the morning I plan to make the sandwich.
- I usually try to buy the cold cuts ahead of time on sale. Most cold cuts freeze well.
- The hardest part is having room enough to prepare the sandwich.
- The best part is eating it!!!!
- Of course potato salad, macaroni salad and other party
- salads are great accompaniments.
