Sauce: In food processor bowl, combine the shallot, chili pepper, garlic, bay leaves, mustard seed, sherry, Worcestershire sauce and peppercorns and process into a smooth paste.

Place the flank steak in the freezer for 5 minutes or until cold. Remove and shred or cut the cold flank steak against the grain. Throw the bread in the oven to crisp it up. In a skillet, heat the oil to over high heat until it smokes. Add the meat and toss for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and combine the steak with the warm sauce. Cut the rolls open and stuff the hoagies with the spicy greens and the hot ‘n saucy steak.
