  1. I really enjoyed this episode! I enjoyed that he went on location to research the Cuban sandwich and then came back to recreate it. I hope there are many more of these kind of videos to come! Very very good! 👏👏👏

  2. I Sous Vide a lot. I would love to do the pork butt sous vide. Any thoughts on time, temperature & finishing technique?

  3. Every day ATK strays from easy recipes to complicated recipes you just watch but never make.

  4. Nope.. Back in the day it was La Ideal , La Tropicana or Gold Ring….. The Cuban sandwich was such a thing that they served it at my 6th grade Lomax during the 70s… no mayo, no tomato or lettuce…And when I home press my sandwich, i heat 2 cast iron skillets up… and press the sandwich between…one thing you CAN do with the mayo…spread it on the outside of the bread instead of butter and then press and grill

  5. I had a good Cuban friend Yolanda Sitges who lived in Queens Village, Queens. I put her name here cause she was a good lady. I know you’re in heaven now Yolanda.

  6. The only thing I can tell you, being Cuban born and raised in Miami since the age of 3, is? This bread is very difficult to master. There is something that must of went wrong, (though it was still probably delicious?) Cuban bread done right is stone white inside and super soft..and the outside is super pale beige color, & not browned like a French loaf? That's one, now second the Cuban sandwich made in every Cuban shop in Miami & Tampa is made with thin sliced roasted Leg of Pork. The Pork butt is a good choice if you're into doing a variation? But not true to the recipe in either of the 2 Cities? I do applaud you for still slicing it as thin as you could…🙂 Now, the salami you know know is a Tampa thing…that's neither here nor there? No big deal. Cos I like the two variations. The Mayo is an acceptable choice, cos it does help add moisture? And the MOJO, btw is something I like to do personally at home when I make mine, so your good in that choice. It's actually very welcome!🇨🇺 It's a shame the Cuban bread is so hard to get just right…🤔(that bread you made looked yellow on TV?) Idk if the colors were off,or what? Lol But I'm glad you guys enjoyed it..regardless!🥂

  7. I don't do the moko sauce part, but I've made this recipe of yours maybe a couple dozen times! It is tied for first place with my homemade hot pastrami on homemade rye, as my all time favorite sandwich. The roast and the pan cubano are stand alone recipes. I've used the pan cubano in a smaller version for Chicago dogs. So good.

  8. I love Cuban sandwiches 🥪 ❤ I get mine here in San Diego from a Cuban restaurant that is ran by a Cuban native 💕 love the guava and cheese pastries too 💕💕

  9. What is the point of making risen bread and then squashing it? Wouldn't a flat bread have the same result?

  10. The YouTube documentary on the development of this recipe shows the incredible amount of work that can go into the recipes that ATK/ CC give us, and why they just work if you follow directions. Respect to Cecelia Jenkins for this one. Also can't forget Bryan Roof and his vision of the perfect Cuban sandwich. This recipe requires planning and an investment in time. Hard to justify for a sandwich or 2, but doable for a small group of friends. Yea, I will definitely be making this.

  11. In Tampa , the Farmers Market is on Hillsborough Ave. There is a full level below ground that has a Cuban Sandwich Restaurant in it ,. The best sandwich I ever ate !

  12. I played a drinking with a buddy of mine where we drank light beer every time we saw an obese person in this video. He passed away due to alcohol poisoning a day later. Rest in peace gator!

  13. It all looks delicious, BUT-what is the
    baking temperature for the bread??
    Is it the same as for the roast?!
    I can't wait to make it but I need the
    right oven temperature!!!!
    PLEASE HELP!!!! Thanks in advance!
    PS: Brian & Bridget totally ROCK!!!!

  14. That long, sharp diagonal cut is a must to be authentic. For some reason, it makes that first bite fantastic. I’m not opposed to the salami (Tampa style), but I grew up in S. Fla, so I’m used to the Miami style.
