Critical Success Points

  • Forming a sticky patty for a good crust
  • Pressing the patty onto the hot skillet
  • Chopping the cooked meat to achieve the loose texture
  • Melting both cheeses evenly
  • Toasting the hoagie roll to prevent sogginess
  • Wrapping the sandwich tightly before eating

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can splatter – use a splatter guard and keep face away.
  • Handle the skillet with oven mitts; the cast iron gets extremely hot.
  • Use a sharp knife carefully when slicing tomatoes and onions.
