1
Slice the Bread
Cut the Cuban bread loaf in half lengthwise, creating a top and bottom half for the sandwich.
2
Layer the Ingredients
On the bottom half of the bread, layer the roasted pork evenly, followed by the sliced ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and a spread of yellow mustard.

3
Butter the Bread
Spread butter evenly on the outer sides of both the top and bottom halves of the sandwich.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Preheat a pan or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwich on the pan and press it down with a heavy skillet or a sandwich press. Grill for about 3-5 minutes per side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

5
Slice and Serve
Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwich from the heat, slice it in half diagonally, and serve warm.
