Wow, this is an excellent sandwich. I served it on a 647 hotdog bun, but would be excellent on a hard roll. So so good!
This was so amazing! I made it for some guests before ever trying it (scared my husband to death, he was sure I should make something I’ve mastered before) they loved it! My kids even loved it. It was nice that they had the option not to use the veggies and aioli sauce because picky kids. I highly recommend this recipe!
