Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Flip the bread slices over and spread about 1/2 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the opposite side of each slice.
Top two of the bread slices (on the mayonnaise side) with 4 ounces of roast beef, 2 slices of pepper jack cheese, and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard each. Add pickled jalapeños if using for extra heat.
Place the remaining bread slices on top of each sandwich, with the butter side facing outward.
Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium-low heat.
Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking, until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted.
Carefully remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them rest for 1 minute before slicing in half.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, melty goodness of the grilled roast beef and pepper jack cheese sandwich.
