Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A good hero roll should be soft and airy with a slightly chewy crust. Look for a roll that is about 6 inches long and 3 inches wide.
  • Pile on the meat: Don't be shy with the meat! A good hero should have at least 1/2 pound of thinly sliced meat. You can use any type of meat you like, but roast beef, ham, and turkey are classic choices.
  • Add your favorite toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to toppings. Some popular choices include lettuce, tomato, onion, peppers, pickles, and cheese. You can also add a spread like mayonnaise, mustard, or horseradish.
  • Dress it up: A good hero should have a flavorful dressing. You can use a simple vinaigrette, a creamy dressing, or even a spicy sauce.
  • Serve it hot or cold: Hero sandwiches can be served hot or cold. If you are serving it hot, you can grill or toast the bread. If you are serving it cold, you can simply assemble the sandwich and let it chill for a bit before serving.
