#SeriousSandwich The Cuban Sandwich Crisis invades the Firehouse

Today was kind of a glum day, they weather was blah, cold and rainy and my guys made my favorite sandwich in the whole world "The Cuban" sometimes food can make a blah day better, and let me tell you it did exactly that. A spicy rubbed pork roast with cumin, salt pepper and garlic, along with a sprinkle of essence and on the rotisserie on the gas grill it went, after it cooked through the sandwiches were assembled with some Cuban love, on of my good friends was working today and decided to cook, Im happy as Dan is part cuban and this is a specialty and makes one of the best Cuban Sandwiches I've ever tasted, so its always a treat to walk into the kitchen our and see him making these delights..

For those that aren't familiar with the Cuban the recipe is in Emerils new Sandwich cookbook Stacked with flavor Kicked-UP Sandwiches on Page 129. The Cuban sometimes called a cubano, is a Latin variation on a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. It was brought to the United States by Cuban immigrants who settled in Florida. This undeniably delicious sandwich is grilled and made with ham, pork, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard and Cuban bread. The essential ingredient is the roasted pork.

This sandwich is packed full with amazing flavor, and is quite easy to make. You'll enjoy it hot and even cold, I jokingly said if I ever had to pick a final meal this would be part of it...
