1. Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
2. Lightly butter one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
3. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise evenly on the unbuttered side of each slice of bread.
4. On two slices of bread, arrange a slice of cheddar cheese, followed by 2-3 thin slices of tomato, and 2 slices of dill pickle.
