Step 2

Split open the loaf of bread, leaving one side attached. Brush the inside with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Fill with a layer of tomato, then salami, ham, coppa and provolone. Top with the banana pepper mixture. Wrap the sandwich tightly in foil and press between 2 baking sheets; place a cast-iron skillet on top to weight it down. Bake until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
