Prep the Bread:
Lightly toast both sandwich rolls with a bit of butter or olive oil until golden.
Spread the Base:
On the bottom half of each roll, spread mayo or aioli. Add mustard if desired.
Layer it Up:
Add lettuce first to act as a moisture barrier.
Place your grilled knob (chicken, steak, etc.) on top.
Add cheese, tomato, onion, and pickles.
Top it Off:
Spread a thin layer of mayo or sauce on the top roll.
Close the sandwich and press gently.
Serve & Enjoy:

Use parchment paper for wrapping if prepping ahead.
Add a dash of hot sauce or pesto for an extra flavor kick.
