Italian sub
Deli meat torpedo
An Italian sub is a sandwich on a long roll filled with Italian cold cuts—typically salami, capicola, and ham—along with provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and oil and vinegar dressing.
Regional names vary: hoagie in Philadelphia, hero in New York, grinder in New England.
I grabbed an Italian sub for lunch.
