Cubano Slider

The Cubano is Miami’s signature pressed sandwich—crispy, tangy, and loaded with flavor. Layers of warm pulled pork, smoky ham, Swiss cheese, and pickles are pressed inside a roll slicked with Smash Kitchen Yellow Mustard and Smash Kitchen Spicy Mayonnaise until golden brown and melty. A buttery crust on the outside and savory richness inside make this one a must-try.
