Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Spread one half with mayonnaise and the other with mustard. Layer the Swiss cheese and ham on one half of the bread, followed by pork roast slices. Layer the pickle slices over the pork. Top with the other bread half. In a large skillet over medium-high heat enough butter to coat the cooking surface.
