The Cuban sandwich, better known as a Cubano, begins with soft, slightly sweet Cuban bread. Heaps of heavily seasoned pork roast and sliced ham alternating between layers of Swiss cheese and sour pickles. The sandwich is cemented together with yellow mustard and a garlic butter schmear.
So, there was leftover roasted pork; decided to make something different with leftovers! We don’t need to do bbq pork or pulled pork sandwiches, Brilliant idea, my brain said! The ingredients, as listed above, were not so much in my brain when I went grocery shopping—
Our Cuban contained roast pork, ham, cheese (not Swiss but jalapeño cheese), Famous Dave’s pickles( not sour pickles), spread of yellow mustard, forgot the garlicky butter spread, not on sweet Cuban bread but small crusty bread, heated in oven instead of paninis maker.
So, is it still a Cuban sandwich?
Tasted good anyways!
