Place the 8 slices of bread on a flat surface. If desired, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on one side of 4 slices for added flavor.
Layer 2 slices of cooked ham and 2 slices of Monterey Jack cheese onto each of the 4 slices of bread with mustard, ensuring even coverage.
Top each prepared slice with another slice of bread to form a sandwich.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly onto one side of each sandwich.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place the sandwiches butter-side down onto the skillet. Spread another 1/2 tablespoon of butter on the top side of each sandwich while the bottom is cooking.
Cook the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwiches carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let them cool slightly, then cut them diagonally if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, cheesy, savory goodness of your Grilled Ham N Jack Cheese Sandwiches!
