Thanks Guys, they were actually tasty little things. I will be making thee again definitely.
 
SQWIB, nice job man and extremely creative with leftovers! I have been trying to do an Italian pinwheel forever that I once had in a restaurant. I see now you and Snorklegirl are going to drive me to it. 

Extremely nice job. Man what a creative mind.
 
Very impressive. Always wondered how they made the pinwheels at my local pizza place and I think you just showed us how. I am a sucker for a Cuban sandwich so I will definitely be trying this!

Thanks.
The plan was to do three of these one from each of the triple play.
After nearly a week of destroying the kitchen and 10 recipes later, the boss pulled the reigns and said enough is enough.
I have some char siu and porchetta in the freezer just screaming to get out
