In N.O., it seems to be called a "po' boy"...?! Up here in Canada, it's 
called a
"submarine" (probably because there exists a large chain selling them
which is called "Mr. Submarine" (or Mr. Sub these days...?!). It is also
known as a "hoagie" (derivation unknown) in other places...?!

It is basically a sandwich on a long skinny roll...with several varieties
of "lunch meat," cheese (usually mild cheedar, or "store cheese") and
often a sauce of some sort applied to the finished product!
