See the video here!

4 bread rolls split

½ lb thin sliced Italian Roast beef

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 bunch basil, chiffanade

2 Roma tomatoes, thin sliced

½ cup extra virgin olive oil

2 tblspns balsamic vinegar

1 tblspn dried oregano

8 slices Provolone cheese

Mix the cup of olive oil, garlic, and oregano and allow to rest to get the flavors to meld. 

Heat your grill/oven to 375° F with your bacon press inside. You can also use an electric Panini press if you have one. 

Lightly brush the cut sides of the rolls with the olive oil mixture. 

 Now place the beef, basil, tomato, and cheese, in that order, on top of the bottom of the roll while inverted. Invert the top of the roll and press it down on top of the sandwich. 

 Place on the hot grill and press down firmly with the hot bacon press. Allow to cook 5 minutes per side until the cheese melts and the bread becomes toasted. Serve!
