Grilled Cuban Bunini Sandwich image

They say the key to a good Cuban sandwich is soft bread; we say Ball Park® Buns fit the bill. If you don't have a panini press, make your sandwich in a pan on the stove, using the lid for a press.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my own taste. I used a different type of bread and added some extra spices to the roasted pork. The sandwich turned out even better than I expected!

I found this recipe to be a bit too salty. I think I'll try it again with less salt next time.

This sandwich is a great way to use up leftover roasted pork. It's also a great option for a quick and easy lunch or dinner.

I was a bit disappointed with this recipe. The sandwich was dry and the flavors didn't really come together. I think I'll stick to my regular Cuban sandwich recipe.

This sandwich is the perfect combination of savory and sweet. The roasted pork is tender and juicy, and the ham and cheese add a nice salty flavor. The Cuban bread is the perfect finishing touch, adding a crispy crunch to each bite.
