IF COOKING ANOTHER WAY~
Press each sandwich in a sandwich press heated to medium-high heat. If a sandwich press is not available, use a large skillet over medium-high heat, and press the sandwiches down using a sturdy plate or skillet. Some indoor grills may be good for this also. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes, keeping sandwiches pressed. If using a skillet, you may want to flip them once for even browning.

    you split the bread after you toasted, you can omit the pickle, and for the pork you can use any type of sandwich meat. - 5/31/13
