Cuban Sandwich Preparation

1. Combine pickles and peppers in a small bowl. Split rolls in half, spread top half with mayo and bottom with mustard.

2. Layer ham, pork, pickle mixture, and cheese onto bottom half, finishing with cheese on top. Set tops of rolls in place and press down to flatten sandwiches.

3. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium low heat for 4 minutes. Butter outsides of sandwiches. Place them in the skillet. Compress the sandwiches, pressing down with a large pot, for about 20 seconds. Continue to cook, leaving pot on top of sandwiches but not pressing down until first side is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

4. Remove the pot, flip the sandwiches over, replace pot on top of sandwiches, and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes more.
