Cuban Sandwich

Cuban Sandwich
By altonbrown.com

The Cuban is my favorite sandwich of all time. Alas, my desire is often thwarted by a dearth of one crucial ingredient: roast pork. So, the way I figure it, why not reach for a far more common deli meat: herb-roasted turkey. Is it authentic? No. Is it delicious? Believe it.

Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients:
4 hoagie rolls*
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
8 slices baked ham, thinly sliced
8 slices roast pork or turkey, thinly sliced
8 slices provolone cheese, thinly sliced

Instructions:

Heat your panini press and if there are temp settings, go for full power.

While the press is heating, prepare your ingredients by pre-stacking the fillings. Remove eight pickles from the jar and blot with paper towels, drying them as much as possible. Divide the ingredients evenly among the 4 rolls: Start with two slices ham, followed one piece of cheese torn in half, two slices of the pork or turkey, two pickles, finishing with another piece of cheese torn in half.

Halve the rolls lengthwise and brush the cut sides liberally with the melted butter. Place on the panini press cut-side down then coat the outside of rolls with additional butter. Close the press and brown for 2 1/2 minutes.
