Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Slice the Cuban bread lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Spread the yellow mustard on the inside of the bread.

  2. 2

    Layer the Ingredients

    Layer the slow roasted pork, sliced ham, Swiss cheese, and pickles inside the bread.

  3. 3

    Heat the Sandwich

    Spread butter on the outside of the sandwich. Preheat a pan or sandwich press over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the heat, slice in half, and serve hot.
