Italian Hoagie on Italian

Get the defibrillator ready– this is a beast. Have some water nearby, too. Genoa salami, butt capicola, pepperoni, and pepper ham form the meat base for this epic pile of sandwich. That would be flavorful enough, but some mozzarella cheese will make a half-baked effort to try and balance out the hot banana peppers, jalapenos, and red onion. And of course, there’s dressing:zesty Italian, for when regular Italian just isn’t enough. Yes indeed, people, this one’s going to put you down for a bit, so chew slowly and carefully.
