Ingredients

4 sweet bread rolls
½ cup Best Foods mayonnaise
4 tsp SIDS PLUM SAUCE
¼ cup prepared mustard
500 g thinly sliced cooked ham
500 g thinly sliced fully cooked pork
500 g sliced Swiss cheese
1 cup pickle slices
2 tbsp butter, melted

Directions

Split the sandwich rolls in half and spread mustard and mayonnaise and 1 tsp each of SIDS PLUM SAUCE onto the cut sides. On each sandwich, place and equal amount of Swiss cheese, ham and pork in exactly that order. Place a few pickles onto each one and put the top of the roll onto the sandwich. Brush the tops with melted butter.
Press each sandwich in a sandwich press heated to medium-high heat. If a sandwich press is not available, use a large frypan over medium-high heat and press the sandwiches down using a sturdy plate or frypan. Some indoor grills may be good for this also. Cook for 5-8 minutes, keeping sandwiches pressed. If using a frypan, you may want to flip them once for even browning. Slice diagonally and serve hot.
