The Slim Jim Sandwich My Way image

How many of you remember the Big Boy restaurants? They had a great sandwich called the "Slim Jim". Well here is my version of that great sandwich. For a true Big Boy restaurant experience, you might want to serve this with onion rings on the side. Submitted to Zaar on August 6th, 2006.

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 hoagie rolls, split and lightly toasted
4 lettuce leaves
