Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French bread loaf lengthwise to create a top and bottom half. Scoop out some of the soft bread from the center to create space for the fillings.
Brush the interior of both halves lightly with melted butter. Place the halves cut side up on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 minutes or until lightly golden.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and mustard together to create a spread.
Thinly slice the tomato, pickles, and red onion for layering.
Spread half of the mayonnaise-mustard mixture over the toasted bottom half of the bread.
Start layering the ingredients: first, lay the lettuce leaves flat across the bottom. Then add a layer of sliced turkey, followed by provolone cheese, sliced tomato, and a light sprinkle of salt and black pepper.
Continue layering with sliced ham, cheddar cheese, pickles, and red onion.
Spread the remaining mayonnaise-mustard mixture across the interior of the top half of the bread. Place it on top of the layered ingredients to close the loaf.
Use a sharp bread knife to carefully slice the loaf into 6 even portions. Secure each slice with a toothpick if needed.
Serve immediately or wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 6 hours for flavors to meld.
