Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

6 ciabatta loaves (6 inches each)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
18 thin slices provolone cheese
Chili-Rubbed Pork
8 peperoncini, thinly sliced
12 thin slices Black Forest ham (or use leftover ham)
2 cups bread-and-butter-pickle slices

Steps:

Slice crusts off top and bottom of each ciabatta loaf, leaving the sides. Cut loaves in half horizontally. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise and mustard on bread. Layer half of 1 loaf with a slice of cheese, a thin layer of pork, a layer of peperoncini, a second slice of cheese, 2 slices of ham, a layer of pickles, and a third slice of cheese. Top with remaining half of loaf, spread side down. Repeat.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Place panini in pan. Place a heavy pan on top, pressing down, and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Flip, pressing down, and cook until browned, about 4 minutes more. Halve sandwiches; serve immediately.
