Method
Assembly and finish
- 1
- 2
Toast the bread
Lightly toast the sandwich buns or bread until lightly golden to add crunch and warmth.
- 3
Condiment base
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each cut side of the bread. This adds moisture and richness without overpowering the turkey.
- 4
Assemble the base
Lay a couple of lettuce leaves on the bottom bun to create a crisp layer and prevent sogginess.
- 5
Add cheese and turkey
Place the provolone slices on the lettuce, then pile on the slow-roasted hand-pulled turkey evenly across the bottom half.
- 6
Add vegetables
Top the turkey with tomato slices and thin onion rings. Lightly season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- 7
Finish and serve
Place the top bun over the fillings, press gently, and slice the sandwich in half if desired. Serve immediately for best texture.
