  • 1 dill pickle

  • Slice the bread lengthwise down the middle. Slice the pickle lengthwise into long, thing strips.
  • Layer top half of sandwich with mustard and pickles. Put the ham and roast pig on the bottom slice. Put the cheese in the middle.

  • Using a heated waffle iron or panini press, grill until cheese is melted and bread has browned and crisped, about 5-10 minutes, depending on the machine.
