Round 1 winner: Michael Buttacavoli — advanced to face Bobby.
Round 2 · Bobby lost
Michael Buttacavoli beat Bobby with Meatball Parmesan Sandwich.
Buttacavoli's 70/30 pork-beef blend and cold-mix technique kept the meatball from compacting under heat. Double-toasting the bread before assembly prevented the soggy-bottom collapse that high-sauce sandwiches are prone to.
