I made this last night for Halloween, like others I drizzled red wine vinegar over the top and I also added about a tablespoon of sourcream to the mayo. I also halfed it and it still made quite a bit. I got alot of positive feedback from the family! I will definitely make again, maybe for the Super Bowl! Thanks for the recipe!

Mixed feelings about this dip. I mixed all the ingredients except the mayo and tasted it and loved it! Then I added the mayo and was dissapointed- I just don't think the flavor of mayo goes well with hoagies. Philly hoagies are made with oil and that's what I'm used to and love. I may make this again, but I'll leave out the mayo and top the bread rounds with the mixture before serving, like a bruschetta topping, instead of serving it as a dip.

I looove Italian hoagies, so this is right up my alley. I go the Strip District (Pittsburgh thing) and get quality meats and cheeses: ham, spicy capicola, salami, pepperoni, and provolone. For the dressing: 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1 T red wine vinegar, 2 T Italian Dressing, 2 t dried oregano. I like it cooked, but that's how I like my hoagies. In which case I serve the onions, hot pepper rings, lettuce and tomato on the side. I serve with lighly toasted french bread rounds. Also, my friends call this "deconstructed hoagie." I think it's an accurate description!

I was happy to find this recipe as I've had this at parties over the years and always loved it. I did add the tbsp of red wine vinegar (italian flavored) AND I added a few tsp of red peppers (the refrigerated kind) that you put on a hoagie and it was awesome! Everyone devoured it. It makes a ton....would cut in half next time. Used torn hoagie rolls but you can also use sliced baguette....just couldn't find any yesterday. Baguette actually works great.

Sounds strange, but is the best dip! I made it once and since then it has been requested at every party. I often add capicola, bologna and provalone to the mixture as well. It is great served on bread or crackers. I promise you, it will not be around long once it is served!!

Awesome hearty appetizer. The quantity is huge...sometimes I only make 1/2. I use white american cheese. Definitely add red wine vinegar - 1 or even 2 tsp. I've used bagged shredded lettuce & works out well. Make the bread pieces kind of big or there isn't enough "room" for the dip. The first time I cut the bread too small & it really didn't work out too well. Some of my "guests" even eat this on rolls as a "sandwich". Someone always wants the recipe when I make it. The only drawback is that it really takes quite a while to cut or tear all of the ham, salami & cheese etc.

This was amazing!! The perfect mix of meats and cheeses! I scaled this recipe way down just by eyeing up the ingredients so that my boyfriend could have it as a snack, and he gave it rave reviews! Thanks for posting the great and easy recipe!

I made a few changes after reading the reviews. It' a four star the way written. I used 1 cup of sour cream in place of one cup of mayo since we aren't big on mayo. I also used shredded cheese instead of the processed since that's what I had on hand. I layered the lettuce and tomatoes on top and then drizzled 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar on top and sprinkled some oregano over that. This was fantastic and it was the first thing gone from the party I took it to. I was asked numerous times for the recipe.

This was absolutely delicious, and coming from a Philly girl.....that's great! I used half the mayo, and replaced the rest with oil and red wine vinegar. I also added more oregano and left out the lettuce and tomato. I cut the hoagie rolls into rounds and served the dip with a spoon......and it was gone an hour later. THANK YOU!

This was just ok for us. I halved the recipe, but still had to double the sauce ingredients. I took others advice and added a tbsp. or so of red wine vinegar, which gave it a nice tang that we enjoyed. Over all, while the dip was refreshing and fairly tasty my family didn't think that it tasted quite like a hoagie. I may try this again sometime! Thanks for posting. :)

We really enjoyed this dish. I set it up like a 'Taco Dip', and served with sliced fresh french bread. I did add a little red wine vineger in the mayo mixture. But I also drizzeled olive oil and oregano on top of the lettuce before serving. I will be making again, but I might try sliced turkey instead of salami.

I thought this was a good dip. I added red wine vinegar, extra mayo, and seasoning as it needed a little something extra. I also added sliced pepperoni. I will defintely make again.

Yum! Scaled it down to 4 servings and added a tablespoon of red wine vinegar. I also added a heaping tablespoon of light sour cream to cut down on the mayo flavor a bit. Big hit served with toasted baguette slices.

Wonderful Dip. It was the first thing to disappear at our Super Bowl Party. I added 2 t red wine vinegar, 2 t of Wishbone Italian dressing, 1/2 t garlic powder, 1/4 c mild banana peppers, chopped and 1 t of the juice from the banana peppers. It was superb. I had pre-sliced hoagie rolls and included a spreader spoon to make it easier for the guests to enjoy the recipe. Will DEFINITELY make again. Thanks

This dip is amazing!! I have made it several times and it is always the hit of the party. Did I mention I am a Philly girl too? So, I know all about good hoagies. I do add red wine vinegar to this b/c a hoagie is not a hoagie without it.

This recipe rocks!! My husband and kids loved it. Instead of fresh oregano, however, I used a couple of teaspoons of Good Seasons Italian Dressing made with balsamic vinegar and mixed it in with the mayo. This may appear on my Super Bowl buffet!
