Set the sandwiches in the pan (if you can’t fit all 4, start with 2 and cook in batches, keeping the first batch warm in a low oven while cooking the second batch), top with a flat lid and a couple of heavy cans to weight down the sandwiches (or use grill presses if you have them), and cook the sandwiches until they brown, about 4 minutes. Flip, weight down the sandwiches in the same manner, and cook until browned on the second side, about 4 minutes. Cut in half and serve.
These were good but not amazing. We do not have Cuban bread here so we had to use sub buns. We used the leftover pork from the recipe, which was delicious. I would make again.
Tastes great. The mojo sauce on the bottom and the pickle on the top play off very nicely against the bland pork. Although it tasted just fine, it was way more squashed looking than the one in your photo! I wonder how they get the cheese to melt, but still have everything looking like it was never pressed?
