Cuban Medianoche Sandwich The Flavorful Recipe For The Classic Midnight Sandwich

MEDIANOCHE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the 1 lb center cut pork loin in a roasting pan. Drizzle with 1/2 tbsp olive oil, then salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle one side of the pork loin with 1 tsp honey. Turn the pork loin over so that the honey-coated side is down.
• Roast the pork loin for about 30 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the meat reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Remove the pork from the oven. Shave off thin slices of the pork lengthwise.
• Lay out your 3 brioche rolls or bread, and equally layer the filling for each sandwich. Start with sliced pork, then spiral cut ham, then 2 pieces of Swiss cheese, then 3 baby dill pickles, and 2 tbsp mustard on each sandwich.
• Heat a skillet and melt the 2 tbsp butter. Put the sandwiches into the skillet. Place a 10" cast iron skillet on top of the sandwiches to press them down, grilling until crispy. Flip and do the same on the other side.

Steps:

• Split the sandwich rolls in half, and spread mustard and mayonnaise liberally onto the cut sides. On each sandwich, place and equal amount of Swiss cheese, ham and pork in exactly that order. Place a few pickles onto each one, and put the top of the roll onto the sandwich. Brush the tops with melted butter.
• Press each sandwich in a sandwich press heated to medium-high heat. If a sandwich press is not available, use a large skillet over medium-high heat, and press the sandwiches down using a sturdy plate or skillet. Some indoor grills may be good for this also. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes, keeping sandwiches pressed. If using a skillet, you may want to flip them once for even browning. Slice diagonally and serve hot.
