Damn, that looks kill'er!!
Growing up, my Mom worked at our family restaurant in SF, she would pick us up from school and take us back to the restaurant and make us work for our weekly allowance. After my brother and I were done scrubbing a bushel of baker potatoes, each, and, peeling half and wiping the other half down with olive oil and wrapping them in foil for bakers, we would get to eat whatever we wanted. The Chef on duty would cook us what ever we wanted, I always ordered a bucket of steamed clams, and my brother would always take a fried
salami, cut 1/2'' thick or more, provolone with grilled peppers, and onion sandwich on a hard sourdough roll.
I always thought he was weird, until one day he was sick and couldn't finish it, so I stepped in to "help him out" by eating the second half. We were brought up that if you took food from anywhere, you had to finish it, thank God he couldn't finish his that day. Still almost 50+ yrs later, thick cut fried salami, provolone, and peppers and onions is in my top five sandwiches.
I also cut salami into 3/4'' slices and grill them over coals until they crisp up then add a slice of provolone, and a slice of grilled, and yellow mustard on sourdough slider buns. Everyone that has thumbed their nose over them, quickly became worshipers after tasting them.
I call them Dan's Dego burgers/ sliders, they are what friends ask me to make at get togethers.
Ground or small cubed chopped salami, peperoni or both mixed with ground beef make "KILL'ER" burgers as well, I prefer the small diced over ground.
Try it out, you'll see what I'm talking about, they are both amazing!!!
Dan.
