Cuban Sandwich, or Sandwich Cubano, is a toasted sandwich made with layers of roast pork (lechón asado), ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and yellow mustard on crusty Cuban bread, then pressed until warm and crisp. Though rooted in Cuban cuisine, the sandwich was popularized by Cuban immigrants in Tampa and Miami, Florida, where it became a symbol of Cuban-American food culture. Tampa's version includes Genoa salami, reflecting Italian influence, while Miami’s version sticks to pork and ham only. It's now widely served in Latin delis, cafés, and bakeries across Florida and beyond.
Common variations include pan con lechón (pork-only), medianoche (sweet bread version), and Cuban sandwiches with hot sauce or garlic butter.
