Sandwich Assembly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the Cuban bread lengthwise to create sandwich halves.

  2. 2

    Layer the Ingredients

    Spread yellow mustard on the inside of both halves of the bread. Layer shredded mojo pork, followed by sliced ham, Swiss cheese, and bread and butter pickles.

  3. 3

    Close the sandwich and press down slightly. Grill the sandwich on a panini press or in a skillet over medium heat until the bread is crispy and the cheese has melted, about 5-7 minutes.
