Instructions

  1. STEP 1: Remove Bones, freeze the meat until firm around edges but still yielding in center 45-60 minutes. This makes it easier to slice.

  3. STEP 3: Saute Peppers & Onions
  4. Heat Olive oil in large pot over medium high heat
  5. Add Onions & Peppers and season with S & P.
  6. Cook stirring often, adding a splash of water if vegetables are browning too quickly.
  7. Cook until golden & tender, about 25-30 minutes.
  8. Remove pot from heat
  9. Add vinegar & stir.
  10. Taste & adjust seasoning
  11. This can be done ahead; cooled, covered, chilled and reheated before assembly.
  12. STEP 4: GET COOKING
  13. Slice bread in half lengthwise
  14. Heat a large griddle across two burners on medium heat (Or use large cast iron skillet)
  15. Lightly coat cooking surface with vegetable oil
  16. Place two portions of meat on griddle (about 1 Lb.)
  17. Season generously with S & P
  18. Cook, pressing down and pulling slices apart using two metal spatulas until cooked halfway thru (you should still see some raw spots.)
  19. Scoot meat into 2 oblong portions no more than 1" high
  20. Top with onions & peppers
  21. Top with 2 slices each of the two selected cheeses
  22. Cook, undisturbed until meat is browned and crisp underneath and cheese is melted, about 4 min
