Sandwich King - Season 1

Craving a famous Chicago Italian Beef sandwich but don't have a deli slicer? Jeff Mauro has the perfect solution in his potroast-style Chicago Italian Beef, complete with sautéed sweet peppers and his own Hot Giardiniera. Still hungry? Jeff Mauro's Mortadella and Fig Focaccianini are pressed panini taken to the next level with pillowy, rich focaccia.

Jeff Mauro satisfies his street food cravings with his homespun take on the gyro. Next, he goes from street to steakhouse, stacking juicy ribeye, garlicky spinach, and blue cheese dressing on crusty buttered French bread for a power dinner sandwich you'll never forget.

Jeff Mauro serves up his favorite fish and chips meal ... on bread! He visits his favorite fish market for ocean-fresh cod, which he fries in a golden beer batter and serves on slider-sized parker house rolls with fresh and crunchy fennel slaw. Plus, you can't miss his trick for crispy sweet potato fries, the perfect accompaniment.

Jeff Mauro takes a classic German chicken schnitzel dinner and re-imagines the meal served inside a flaky, homemade biscuit. Layer upon layer, it's delicious proof that a sandwich is so much more than the sum of its parts.

Jeff Mauro transforms a favorite Chicago entree, Chicken Vesuvio, into a hearty meal on a French roll, complete with flavorful pan sauce, pea and mushrooms, roasted potato wedges, and more! Then, a side of Polish! Polish sausage that is, served exactly Maxwell Street Style -- why mess with perfection?

Jeff Mauro goes Chicago-Latin with not one but two delicious sandwiches. The first transforms a traditional chicken mole meal into a layered, hands-on experience by stacking shredded, mole-coated chicken on soft bolillo rolls with beans, cheese, and homemade tomatillo sauce. His second sandwich is even more surprising, using fried plantains instead of bread as a vehicle for ham sandwich like you've never had before.
