📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Preheat a panini press or sandwich grill to medium heat.

2

Slice the gluten-free French bread loaf in half lengthwise and then cut horizontally to create two sandwich bases. You will have four pieces.

3

Generously spread yellow mustard on the cut side of each bread piece.

4

On the bottom slice of each sandwich, layer two slices of dill pickle, 2 ounces of sliced ham, 2 ounces of roast pork, and 1.5 ounces of Swiss cheese.

5

Place the top half of the bread loaves on the filled sandwiches.

6

Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the top exterior side of each sandwich.

7

Place the sandwiches butter-side down on the preheated panini press.

8

Spread the remaining butter on the now top side of the sandwiches.

9

Close the panini press, and cook the sandwiches until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.

10

Carefully remove the sandwiches from the grill, cut in half diagonally, and serve hot.
