Directions:

  1. To make the marinade: In a medium bowl whisk together the first seven (marinade)ingredients.
  2. Trim the pork loin of any excess fat.
  3. Place the roast in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade.
  4. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly.
  5. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade, place in a bowl, and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, turning occasionally.
  6. Remove the roast from the bag and discard the marinade.
  7. Allow to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling.
  8. Pat dry with paper towels and season with the salt and pepper.
  9. Sear the roast over Direct Medium heat until well marked, about 10 minutes, turning once.
  10. Continue grilling over Indirect Medium heat until the internal temperature reaches 155?F, 35 to 45 minutes.
  11. Transfer the roast to a carving board and loosely cover with foil.
  12. Allow to rest for about 10 minutes.
  13. Slice crosswise as thinly as possible.
  14. Just before serving, split the rolls, spread the inside of each roll with 1 tablespoon butter, and grill them, cut side down, over Direct Medium heat until toasted, about 30 seconds.
  15. Layer each roll with Swiss cheese, ham, pickle slices, and sliced pork loin.
  16. Finally, flatten the sandwiches on a cutting board with the palm of your hand and then grill them over Direct Medium heat for 30 seconds.
  17. Turn the sandwiches and press down firmly a second time (with a metal spatula) and grill for 30 seconds more.
