A Genoa, and salami grinder please. Lightly toasted with lettuce, tomato, roasted peppers, SnP, a little oregano, oil and vinegar, provolone, and some anchovies mixed in the grass(finely shredded lettuce).
Umm Umm good!

No, sorry, a typical Italian hoagie is made with dry salami, mortadella, capicolla, and provolone with lettuce, tomato and onions with a light vinegar and oil dressing, some oregano and long hots on a nice, Italian roll.

There are other variations like:

American—typically includes ham and white American cheese, bologna, and cooked salami

Ham and Cheese—hot or cold with provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayonnaise or oil, hot peppers and ground pepper

Roast beef—as lunchmeat, with swiss cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, raw onions, and mayonnaise or a vinegar and oil sauce

Turkey—hot or cold with provolone cheese

Cheese—white American or provolone or both (mixed), sometimes also Swiss cheese (this one is actually quite good!)


Some different versions:
Roast pork—hot or cold

Tuna—either tuna salad or (especially in more ethnically Italian shops) Italian (canned) tuna in olive oil

Veggie—usually vegetables, such as peppers, mushrooms, and broccoli rabe; some shops even offer vegan hoagies, with no meat or dairy products

Meatball—meatballs in marinara sauce often with green peppers and onions and covered with mozzarella or provolone cheese

Chicken salad

Chicken—as lunchmeat, grilled meat, or cutlet

Breakfast—generally consists of bacon, eggs and cheese


Some real weird stuff:
Tofu—Tofu, often lightly fried, with cilantro, cucumber, jalapeno, onion, and carrot.

Fish—some variety of whiting, breaded and lightly fried, typically with tartar sauce

Bacon—typically includes bacon (instead of lunchmeat)and provolone cheese, topped with lettuce, tomatoes, raw onions, and some times sweet peppers



And the very best hoagie os all:
Cheesesteak hoagie—a marriage with the cheesesteak sandwich. Essientially a cheesesteak with lettuce, tomato, and raw onions.



Lets see your crap on a roll...sorry, I mean "grinder", do that! :eek::p:D;)

Roll? Roll? Son you need to get out more.
I love a good Italian grinder just like you described. I love cappicola, and I don't care how bad it stinks;)
Tuna, and veggie are also favs.
The Pizza joint I worked at was famous for there cheeseburger grinders. Simple but oh so delicious!
I made a lot of dough there, but never had much money:D(pizza joke;))

Almost forgot. Chicken parm/marinara with provolone. Fork I am getting hungry, but don't want to eat $hit!

Cappicola is the best meat in the world. I'd put it on ice cream.

Damn Ed! That looks good.

BTW, I choked down a 14 oz NY Strip at The Palm last night. I took the Southeast train to White Plains and passed out. What a feast!
