Awesome Ham Hoagies --A Tailgating Favorite!



These ham hoagies totally rock. They are super easy, feed a crowd, and can even be made ahead and frozen!  My mom's been makin' them as long as I can remember and served up on a cold day, they're the quintessential hot ham sandwich. With melty Swiss cheese and tangy Dijon mustard, my mouth waters just thinking about them. Try them with salty chips and peperoncinis--Perfection.

Combine softened butter, poppy seed, onion, mustard, and Worcestershire.








Spread butter mixture on both top and bottom buns.
*The cheap hamburger buns in a bag work great for these.


Place bun bottoms in a 9X13" baking dish.


Layer on ham and cheese, then the top bun.










Wrap baking dish in foil and bake 350 degrees for 20 minutes. (Or freeze before you bake for later use).


Serve with peperoncinis.

This is my favorite brand of Peperoncinis. I even like to pour a little peperoncini juice on my plate and let the ham hoagie's bun soak it up. YUM!

Enjoy!
