Is it cost effective to make your own roast beef sandwich?
Seeing how expensive deli meat is it sure seems like roast beef sandwiches would be cheaper to make if you did your own roast and sliced it thin.
Are there any cons to this method? I imagine it would not last as long as the deli meat.

What makes a torpedo roll unique
In New York I've had assorted sandwiches on "Torpedo rolls". They are quite unique in flavor and texture unto themselves. I am a hobbyist baker and can't seem to figure them out. Anyone know what technique or ingredient makes them what they are?
