Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Slice the Cuban bread lengthwise without cutting all the way through, creating a hinge.

  2. 2

    Layer the Ingredients

    Spread yellow mustard on the inside of the bread. Layer the sliced ham, shredded pork, Swiss cheese, and pickles inside the bread.

  3. 3

    Butter the Outside

    Spread butter on the outside of the sandwich.

  4. 4

    Press the Sandwich

    Preheat a pan or a sandwich press over medium heat. Place the sandwich on the pan or in the press and cook until the bread is crispy and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes on each side.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from heat, cut in half, and serve hot.
