My mom would make these Cuban burgers when we would visit her in Florida. They are a take on the real Cuban sandwich. My kids love them. My boys could eat two of these monsters in one sitting. -Marina Castle Kelley, Canyon Country, California

These burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but these burgers were still really good. The ham and cheese helped to balance out the flavor of the pork.

I had a hard time finding Cuban bread, so I used regular hamburger buns. The burgers were still good, but I think they would have been even better with Cuban bread.

The burgers were a bit dry, but the flavors were still good. I think I would add some more moisture to the pork next time.

These burgers were a little too salty for my taste, but otherwise they were very good. I would recommend using less salt in the pork rub.
