Recipe Introduction


Here's my favorite grilled sandwich based on the way they are made at a restaurant chain here. The restaurant name for it is a "Slim Jim". I just call it.....
GRILLED HAM AND SWISS SANDWICH



for each sandwich

1 Bratwurst Bun or Hoagie Bun
2 slices good Swiss cheese
2 slices Tavern Ham
Leaf Lettuce
2-3 slices fresh tomato
Tartar sauce
Butter

Preheat a grill pan or frying pan on med low.
Spread butter on the inside of bun and put in pan butter side down, remove when lightly toasted.
As soon as you remove the bun from the pan, replace it with sliced ham.
Build sandwich....spread tartar sauce on the inside of the top, on the bottom inside first place Swiss cheese, grilled ham, sliced tomatoes, leaf lettuce..... cover with bun top.

Grill the whole sandwich in the same pan, pressing the sandwich down with another pan or large pancake turner. I like to grill the sandwich top side down first until lightly browned then flip and continue until the bottom is lightly browned and the Swiss cheese is melted.

This also will cook nice on a panini press.
