pickles made the sandwiches too salty

Why serve pickles on the side when you can add them right to the sandwich? This was amazing, I'd just use a softer bread next time (my baguette was quite tough).

Geez e5367legs, lighten up, it's just a sandwich. And a pretty good one at that even if it is missing the pork. As a New Englander, I don't get all upset and offended if someone puts maple syrup or brown sugar in their baked beans. I just say no thanks and move on!
