Steps:
- Begin by braising the pork shoulder. Tie the shoulder in 4 places with kitchen twine so it will hold its shape while being cooked or ask your butcher to do this for you. Season the pork with salt, pepper, cumin and oregano. Set the base of a pressure cooker over low-medium heat and add a 2 count of olive oil.
- Add garlic and chili flakes and as the oil heats up it will become fragrant and infuse the oil. Add the pork. Add onions around the pork and brown slightly before adding orange juice, lime juice, stock and bay leaves.
- Secure the lid of the pressure cooker and cook for 20 to 25 minutes depending on the size of your pressure cooker. The pork should be tender when done. When done allow to cool in juices before removing twine and slicing.
- To prepare Cuban sandwiches, split bread in half then layer the sandwich with mustard, cheese, pickles, ham, pork then cheese again (the cheese glues everything together). Season with salt and pepper in between the ham and pork layers. (Optional: drizzle a little of the pork braising liquid over the meat as well).
- To cook, heat a large cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil. Place the sandwiches on the skillet and top with another heavy skillet and a couple of heavy weights (bricks, or cans of tomatoes work well). Press down firmly and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the sandwich has compressed to about a third of its original size and the bread is super-crispy. Serve with beans, rice and plantain chips.

Steps:
- Preheat a cast iron skillet to medium/medium high heat.
- Layer Sandwich: Apply the Dijon mustard to both sides of the roll. On one side of the roll layer with 1 slice of Swiss cheese (you may need to cut cheese in half for the length of the sandwich), and then add ¼ lb pulled pork, then ham and sliced dill pickles, and then top with another slice of Swiss cheese. Finish by adding a smidge of salt and pepper.
- Add Butter: Cover with the top of the roll, and then slather butter on the top and bottom of the roll. Just enough to coat the top and bottom of the roll. This is important to get the rolls crusty but not burned.
- Cook Sandwiches: Place sandwich onto the skillet and press down with a heavy object like a cast iron pan. Cook 4-5 minutes, then flip and repeat on the other side for 4-5 additional minutes, until the crust forms and the cheese is melted.
- Serve warm.

CUBAN PANINI
Out of all the panini recipes I make, this is my favorite. The Cuban sandwich is a twist on the old ham and cheese, usually with ham, Swiss, pickles, condiments and sometimes, as in this hearty version, smoked turkey. -Janet Sanders, Pine Mountain, Georgia

Steps:
- Mix the oil, salt, cumin, oregano, black pepper, red pepper, garlic, lime juice and orange juice in a small bowl. Make slits in the pork with a paring knife and rub liberally all over with the oil mixture. Place the pork in a slow cooker and top with the remaining juices from the bowl. Cover and cook on low until tender, flipping once halfway through, about 6 hours.
- Remove from the slow cooker and let cool slightly. Shred the pork into thick chunks with 2 forks. Set the pork aside and keep warm in the cooking liquid.
- Slice the roll open and smear both sides with mustard. Layer on the Swiss, ham, pulled pork and pickles. Place the onions over half the sub and cut into portions. Or, start on opposing ends and race to the middle.

- Fire up. Prepare a grill for indirect cooking by placing a chimney full of pre-heated charcoal briquets on one side of the grill’s charcoal grate in order to create direct and indirect cooking zones. Adjust the grill vents to bring the temperature to about 225°F on the indirect side. Add 2 to 3 chunks of your favorite smoking wood to the charcoal for flavor. On a gas grill, adjust the temperature knobs so that one half of the grill is off and the other half is heated enough to maintain a temperature of approximately 225°F on the indirect side.
- Cook. Place the pork loin filet on the indirect side of the grill, positioning the vent directly above it in order to force the smoke over and around the meat. Cook the filet until it reaches and internal temperature of 145°F, approximately 2 hours. Remove the pork loin filet from the grill and adjust the grill temperature for high heat cooking (Warp 10), approximately 450°F.
- Prep. Cut the smoked pork loin filet into ¼-inch slices. Split the bread horizontally. Begin assembling the Cuban sandwiches by laying the bread out cut side up. Spread yellow mustard on the top halves of the bread. Cut the Swiss cheese slices in half, and add three half-slices of cheese to each half of bread. Add slices of smoked pork loin filet to both bottom halves of bread. Top the pork slices with sliced ham and pickles. Crown the sandwiches with the top halves of bread.
- Loosely wrap the sandwiches with foil. Press the tops of the sandwiches with your hands to flatten them.

- Preheat the grill. Turn on your grill to medium heat and close the lid. Allow the grill to preheat while you butter the cut sides of your bread.
- Prep the bread. Place the bread, buttered side down, directly on your grill grate and cook for 2-4 minutes until evenly toasted. Remove to a large cutting board that has been covered with a large piece of heavy duty aluminum foil. Place a large, heavy pan in your grill and close the lid. The pan will preheat while you prepare your sandwich.
- Heat the pork. In a large sauté pan, combine the pork, orange juice, lime zest and juice, oregano, red pepper flakes, cumin, onion powder, salt and black pepper. Warm over medium heat until the sauce is evenly distributed throughout the pork and everything is warmed through.
- Assemble the sandwiches. Layer the mustard, pickles, cheese, ham, and pork across the toasted sides of the bread. Press the halves of the bread together and wrap as tightly as you can with the foil.
