When Pork Loin Gets Boring, Make a Sandwich

[Okiejoebronco25]

Been craving a great Cubano and not the easiest thing to find good or at all in South Jersey. So I wung-it. Made a heavy citrus brine and put the loin in overnight. Picked up a partial baked ham. Rubbed pork in a Mojo rub as well as ham. Smoked loin @250 about 2 hours till 140 with a chunk of cherry. Pulled and warmed ham in smoker. A perfect roll, swiss, spicy mustard and pickle then grilled under press to flatten and toast roll. Absolutely delicious.

No, for the record it was a store-bought ham. I just feel like lunchmeat ham doesn’t cut it. I just took a store-bought ham added a little Moho seasoning and reheated it on the smoker, but I’ll take the credit. The sandwich was amazing and well worth the effort.

Nice smoke on the meats and the sandwich looks great.

Well done
