Spread a thin, even layer of softened butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Set aside the buttered side for grilling later.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise until well combined.
Flip the bread slices so the unbuttered side is facing up. Spread the mustard-mayonnaise mixture evenly on two slices of the unbuttered sides.
Layer the sliced roast beef on top of the mustard-mayonnaise mixture. Add 2 slices of smoked gouda cheese on top of the roast beef for each sandwich.
Sprinkle the baby arugula on top of the cheese, then close each sandwich with a second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the sandwiches to the pan.
Grill the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting. Check occasionally to ensure they don't burn.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the pan and allow them to rest for a minute before cutting them in half for serving.
Serve warm, and enjoy your Grilled Roast Beef and Smoked Gouda Cheese Sandwich.
