Nothing beats a good Italian grinder. Call it a hoagie, a hero or even a sub. There's no hard fast rule as to what goes into an Italian grinder. What it needs is a nice bread, a variety of meats, cheese, vegetables, and olive oil and vinegar. Eat it cold or toast it up. Either way, you've got one helluva good sandwich.
