Sloppy Joe Cuban Sandwich

Directions

1. Preheat your Blackstone to medium-high heat.

2. Once heated, add ground pork to the griddle and chop and cook until done. About halfway through the cook, add a little olive oil to the griddle and 1/4 cup of red and green bell peppers to cook down. Once the pork has browned, add 2-3 tbsp stone ground mustard, 1 tsp garlic powder, 3 tbsp Worcestershire, 1-2 tsp Bootleg Burger seasoning, a pinch of kosher salt, coarse black pepper, and 3-4 ounces of Coca Cola. Mix well with the bell peppers. Add more tomato paste if needed. As the Coca Cola reduces, it will thicken to the desired "sloppy" consistency. Slide the mixture off the hot zone to the cool zone.

3. To assemble, cut about 10 inches of Cuban bread and slice it in half. On each side, add yellow mustard and sliced Swiss. On one side, add dill pickles, sliced ham, and salami. Take both slices to the griddle, top the salami with the pork sloppy Joe mixture, and finish with the other half of the bread. Ensure the area where the pork was cooked is scraped and cleaned off, add a little more olive oil, place the sandwich on the oil, and press down with a Blackstone Bacon Press. Cook until you see a golden exterior on the bottom of the sandwich, then flip. Cook until toasted well on both sides, and the cheese is melted.

4. To plate, slice it lengthwise or into smaller portions for guests and enjoy!
