Is there anywhere in Chicago where a Porchetta sandwich can be purchased?
This morning I was watching CBS THIS MORNING. There was a 10 minute segment that originated outside of Rome where the reporter Alan Pizzey asked the question "What is the Italian equivalent to fast food sandwich". The answer is the Porchetta sandwich, which is a seasoned roast pork, hand carved onto two massive pieces of bread and the sandwhich is sold by weight. Prepration was of the pork was shown, a dry rub with different sorts of herbs, the meat is hand rolled and tied and then baked.
There is no information on the CBS website, I've already checked. The only thing is a brief description of the show's segment.
"PORK TO GO
Alan Pizzey introduces us to the Italian version of fast food---pork on a bun."
The sandwich looked outstanding and I'd like to try one.
