Ingredients

• 1 Hoagie roll
• 6 slices Deli-sliced ham
• 2 slices Swiss cheese
• 4 slices Dill pickles
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the hoagie roll lengthwise, without cutting all the way through, to create a hinged sandwich roll.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together until well combined. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 3

Spread the mustard mayo evenly on the inside of the hoagie roll.

Step 4

Layer 3 slices of ham on the bottom half of the roll, followed by 1 slice of Swiss cheese. Repeat with another layer of 3 slices of ham and 1 slice of Swiss cheese.

Step 5

Add the dill pickle slices on top of the cheese, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Close the hoagie roll carefully and lightly press it down to help the ingredients stay in place.

Step 7

Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt completely, swirling to coat the surface of the pan.

Step 8

Place the sandwich into the pan. Press it gently with a spatula or a heavy skillet to flatten slightly as it cooks.

Step 9

Grill the sandwich for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.

Step 10

Remove the sandwich from the pan, let it rest for 1-2 minutes, and then slice it in half for easy serving.
