Ingredients
1/3 Pound Mortadella
1 Cup Castelvetrano Olives, Pitted and Halved
1/2 Cup Olives, Spanish, stuffed
1/2 Cup fire roasted red peppers, drained and rinsed
2 Clove garlic, chopped
3 Tablespoon capers, drained
1 Tablespoon Oregano, chopped
To Taste salt and pepper
1/3 Cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 Tablespoon red wine vinegar
4 Rolls, ciabatta
1/3 Pound Salami, Sliced
1/4 Pound Mozzarella, Sliced
1/4 Pound Smoked Provolone
1/3 Pound Prosciutto Slices
1/3 Pound Soppressata Slices
Steps
1
When ready to smoke, Set temperature to 180℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.2
Place the unsliced loaf of Mortadella in the grill and smoke for 2-1/2 hours. Let cool, then slice thin.3
While the Mortadella is smoking, combine the ingredients for the olive salad and let marinate. You can complete the above steps a day in advance before you assemble the sandwich.4
To assemble the sandwich, slice the ciabatta loaf in half along the equator. Evenly divide the olive salad – including the oil and liquid – between the two halves.5
On the bottom half of the bread, begin to layer the ingredients: salami, smoked mortadella, mozzarella, smoked provolone, prosciutto, and spicy salami.6
Close the sandwich and use plastic wrap to tightly wrap the sandwich – allowing all the flavors to meld and the juices to soak into the bread. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.7
Take the sandwich out of the fridge, remove the plastic, and serve cold. Enjoy!
