A Miami Sandwich is a specific version of the Classic Cuban Sandwich which contains ham, roasted pork, Swiss cheese, pickles and also mustard on pressed Cuban bread.

A Miami Sandwich is also distinguished from the Tampa Style Cuban sandwich that includes the addition of genoa salami.

The key components of a Miami Sandwich are a crusty loaf of Cuban bread that is buttered and pressed.

And slices of sweet ham and tender, marinated roast pork are used as the meats in a Miami Sandwich.

The cheese in a Miami Sandwich are slices of meltable Swiss Cheese.

And tangy dill pickle slices are added to a Miami Sandwich for a bit of acidity.

Then a layer of yellow mustard, sometimes enhanced with other flavors is also used in a Miami Sandwich.

To make a Miami Sandwich you butter the Cuban bread on both the outside and inside of the slices of Cuban Bread.

Then the ingredients of the Miami Sandwich are layered in a specific order which is cheese, roast pork, ham and pickles and then mustard is spread on the top slice of the bread.

The Miami Sandwich is then pressed and then grilled in a sandwich press or skillet until it's golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Then the Miami Sandwich is often sliced diagonally before serving.
