Instructions
- Slice rolls or baguette down the middle to make a top and bottom half. If using a baguette, first cut into 4 equal loaves.
- Spread a tablespoon of mustard and mayo on both sides of the bread.
- To the bottom half, layer as follows: 1 slice cheese, 1 slice ham, 1/2 cup pulled pork (100g), pickles, 1 slice cheese. Then add the top slice of bread. Repeat for all the sandwiches, you can also make them one at a time when ready to eat.
- Spray both sides of the sandwich with cooking spray (or spread with butter). Working 1-2 sandwiches at a time, grill sandwich in a grill pan, panini grill or skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Sear both sides, pressing down very firmly. Cover if needed to melt the cheese.
- Remove from heat. Transfer to a cutting board to slice in half then enjoy!
Notes
- Sandwich tip! If you like want to avoid soggy bread, I highly recommend broiling the pork or frying it up in a hot skillet before adding to your sandwich to help the juice to evaporate. Trust me this extra step takes just a few minutes and makes the pork even MORE flavorful!
