Something I’ve been wanting to make for years now: the Cubano or Cuban Midnight Sandwich! I don’t know why I waited so long! It was delicious on its own or dipped in last night’s Potato and Bacon Ends Chowder. Try as I might, I couldn’t find a grill press or cuban rolls so I had to improvise.


2 slices Bread
3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons Yellow Mustard
¼ pound Peppered Roasted Pork; sliced
¼ pound Uncured Ham; sliced
4 slices of Baby Swiss Cheese
½ cup Dill Pickles; drained

- Spread the mayo over both slices of bread. Layer 2 slices of cheese, pickles, ham, pork and remaining cheese slices. Spread the top slice with mustard and place it over the cheese.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sandwich and press down with a smaller cast iron skillet, searing until golden brown. Flip and sear the other side.
- Serve with French Fries, chips or Dill Pickles.
- Enjoy!
