Grinder Sandwich Recipe

This hearty Grinder Sandwich is made with toasted bread topped with sliced meats and cheese, a creamy salad slaw. The sandwich has become a TikTok sensation and is so popular for lunch or dinner! Serve the sandwich with French Fries or the easy Sweet Potato Fries for a complete meal.

This sandwich is made on a hoagie roll, just like our homemade meatball sub. Both sandwiches are incredible and packed with so many wonderful flavors.

• Sandwich Rolls- Your favorite hoagies or subs sandwich rolls will work great.
• Lettuce- Iceberg lettuce is the classic lettuce used, but romaine will work.
• Tomato- We used a large tomato, but cherry tomatoes will work.
• Onion- Red onion or sweet onion will work in this recipe.
• Dressing- Mayo and Italian dressing make the dressing.
• Meats- Slices of ham, turkey, and salami are the best combination for the sub.
• Peppers- We used a sweet pepper, but you can slice fresh bell peppers, roasted peppers, or leave out peppers altogether.
• Cheese- Sliced provolone cheese works great.
• Seasoning- Just a little Italian seasoning is all you need, but you can add salt and pepper if desired.
• Pepperoncini- The pepperoncini adds heat to the sandwich. If you don’t want heat, leave them out.

• Cut lettuce- Finely shred the iceberg lettuce.
• Cut onion- Slice the onion into thin strands or finely chop.
• Make the dressing- In a bowl, combine the mayo, Italian seasoning, and half of the Italian dressing for the dressing.
• Slice tomatoes- Slice the tomato.
• Cut pepper- Slice the pepper into thin strands or slices.
• Make slaw- In a large bowl, add the lettuce, onion, pepperoncini, peppers, and dressing. Toss to combine.

• Preheat oven– You’ll want to preheat your oven to 400°F.
• Toast buns- Add the slices of meat and cheese to the bun and toast for 5-8 minutes or until the bread is crispy and the cheese has melted.
• Add slaw- Take toasted bread from the oven and add the slaw, top with slices of tomatoes.
• Enjoy- Close the hoagie buns and enjoy the sandwich.
