Sheet Pan Cuban Sandwiches

January 31, 2018

Prep Time : 15-20 minutes
Cook Time : 20 minutes   
Yield : 16-20 servings (or 5 if you are this house)

 

Ingredients:

2 (16-oz.) soft French bread loaves, cut in half and sliced in half horizontally

1 Tbsp. olive oil, divided

1/2 cup yellow mustard 24 (1-oz.)

Swiss cheese slices

1 1/2 lb. fully cooked sliced pork roast

3/4 lb. fully cooked sliced smoked ham

2 1/2 cups dill pickle chips, plus 4 teaspoons pickle juice (from 1 [24-oz.] jar)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Brush 1 1/2 teaspoons of the oil on a large rimmed baking sheet.

Place bread bottoms on baking sheet.

Spread 1 tablespoon mustard on each bread bottom, and top each with 3 Swiss cheese slices.

Divide pork, ham, and pickles evenly on top of cheese.

Top with 3 more Swiss cheese slices.

Brush each top bread slice with 1 teaspoon of the pickle juice and remaining mustard; top sandwiches.

Brush sandwich tops with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil.

Place a second large rimmed baking sheet on top of sandwiches, and press lightly.

Place 2 cast-iron skillets on top of baking sheets to press sandwiches.

Carefully place baking sheets with skillets in preheated oven, and bake until bread is toasted and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.

Cut each sandwich into 4 or 5 pieces and serve.

My notes:  

My husband made this last night for dinner and it was amazing!  I think next time we will add more mustard and pickles though and we are going to try using pulled pork.  For the pork roast we used an uncooked, packaged, Roasted Garlic and Cracked Black Pepper Freshly Seasoned Pork Tenderloin which we precooked earlier that day according to the directions on the package.
