- Form a large ball and then flatten it into a large, compact hamburger patty, being careful to compact the edges.
- Heat a pan with a drizzle of olive oil, add some coarse salt, and place the patty. Cook over high heat until a crust forms, then lower the heat and cover to cook through.
- Meanwhile, in another pan, cook the coppa, guanciale, and mortadella until crispy and glassy. Drain excess fat.
- Remove the patty from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, lightly toast the bread halves with a little oil.
- On the bottom bread, place the provolone, spread some mayonnaise and mostarda.
- Layer the cooked coppa, guanciale, and mortadella, then place the patty on top.
- Add more coppa, guanciale, and mortadella on top of the patty.
- Close with the top bread, press gently, and cut into wedges to serve.
