Chef notes
My friend's mom made these sandwiches famous in my hometown. Her name was Lucy, and so they are known in my kitchen as "Lucy's Ham Sandwiches." Lucy passed away far too young from Alzheimer's, but she lives on in a million ways — this delicious, crowd-pleasing sandwich being one of them. It's truly the perfect game-day snack.
Prep tip: I like to use disposable baking dishes for easy clean up, and for the fact that I am almost always transporting these sandwiches to some sort of football tailgate.
Technique tip: Sweet Hawaiian buns are easy to slice all at once as long as you use a long serrated knife and you don't pull them apart before cutting.
Swap option: If you're not a fan of Swiss cheese, really any alternative would work well. You can also experiment with sliced turkey or roast beef.
