    Layer pastrami a couple of meat thicknesses on each side, then the cheese, basil and tomatoes on the other side. Only Salt and pepper tomatoes (the pastrami and cheese are already seasoned), dribble a little more balsamic onto sandwich prior to putting the other half together. Wrap sandwich with foil. Put in 350° oven, or use BBQ for about 11-15 minutes, till bread is a little crispy cheese is melting and basil is not too dark.

notes

You need to get a good quality pastrami to really do this recipe justice. You can get good pastrami at most grocery store deli counters.
