For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin spread of Dijon mustard alongside the honey mustard. If you don't have an outdoor grill, a panini press or indoor grill pan works beautifully for pressing the sandwiches. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere or provolone, to customize your sandwich.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly coat the cold grate with cooking spray. Arrange a drip pan on grill. (5 minutes)
02
StepPat turkey dry with paper towels; discard gravy packet (or refrigerate and use within 2 to 3 days). Lift and shift string netting position for easier removal after cooking. Cut small slits, at least 1 inch apart, over entire surface of turkey. Insert 1 garlic slice into each slit; brush turkey with oil. (10 minutes)
03
StepCombine cumin, salt, and black pepper; sprinkle over turkey. (2 minutes)
04
StepPlace turkey over drip pan on the preheated grill; grill, covered, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), 1 ¼ to 1 ¾ hours. Transfer to a cutting board; rest 10 minutes. Keep grill on. (95-115 minutes)
05
StepRemove string netting. Cut half of turkey into six ⅛-inch-thick slices; set aside. Refrigerate unsliced turkey for another use. (10 minutes)
06
StepHalve bread loaves, lengthwise, then, cut each into 3 pieces (for 6 sandwiches). Spread each bread bottom with 2 teaspoons mustard; top with sliced turkey, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and bread tops. Press sandwiches with hands to flatten; tightly wrap each in aluminum foil. (15 minutes)
07
StepGrill wrapped sandwiches, each weighted with a heavy iron-skillet or brick, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. (6-10 minutes)
08
StepServe sandwiches warm, wrapped in aluminum foil. (2 minutes)
