1
Assemble the sandwich.

2
Spread 2 tablespoons of the butter on one half of the bread loaf and a thin layer of mustard on the other. Place 1 to 2 layers of ham, pork, cheese, and, finally, pickles on the buttered bread and top with the mustard-spread bread.

Wrap the sandwich in foil.

Smear the remaining butter all over the outside of the sandwich and wrap it completely in aluminum foil.

5
Press and grill the sandwich.

6
Heat your grill to high (550u00b0F) and close the lid. Wait at least 15 minutes before lowering the heat to medium-high (450u00b0F) and continuing.

Before grilling the sandwich, press down on it with your hands to flatten it. Place the wrapped, flattened sandwich on the grill and top with a brick, grill press, or any other heavy, heat-resistant object. Close the lid and grill for 5 to 6 minutes per side.

Remove the wrapped sandwich from the grill and take off the foil. Return the sandwich to the grill and grill for about 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until both pieces of bread are crispy and golden brown.

NOTES:
-
12
The loaf sandwich can be prepared and wrapped in foil a few hours in advance. Press and grill right before serving.

Instead of plan mustard I like to mix mustard, mayonnaise and some cayenne pepper together to give it a little more flavor.
