Notes
- Freeze venison slightly for easier slicing.
- Cut against the grain for the most tender meat.
- Do not overcook the venison.
- Slice onions and peppers the same size for even cooking.
- Lightly toasting the rolls first prevents them from becoming soggy.
- Keep a close eye on the sandwiches under the broiler. The cheese can go from melted to burnt quickly.
