This got the Reader's Digest vote ("America's 100 Best", May 2006) for the best stuffed sandwich. The recipe suggests 1/6 lb of cheese but it appears that the Zaar computer doesn't recognize that so it's listed below as 1/4 lb.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 small crusty bread, cut lengthwise
  • mustard
  • 1/4 lb roast pork, sliced
  • 1/4 lb virginia ham, sliced
  • 1/4 lb swiss cheese
  • 1 kosher pickle, cut lengthwise

Directions

  1. 1
    Slather mustard on bread, to taste.
  2. 2
    Lather on pork, ham, cheese andpickle.
  3. 3
    Grill in a sandwich press (or wrap in foil, press, and warm in oven at 350 degrees)for 15 minutes.
  4. 4
    Enjoy!

To my mind this is the classic Cubano sandwich. I used left over roasted pork shoulder. I used two slices of cheese for each side of the bread.
