1. Use 3 slices of bread for each sandwich. Butter 4 slices and cover generously with ham and poultry.
2. Butter 4 slices bread on both sides. Place on top of poultry. Cover with cheese.
3. Butter 4 more slices and place on cheese. Press lightly. Use toothpicks to hold sandwiches together. Trim off crusts. Cut each sandwich diagonally.
4. Combine eggs, milk, salt and black pepper. Dip sandwich halves in egg mixture. Fry slowly on both sides in butter in skillet, about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Add more butter as needed.
5. Remove toothpicks. Serve sandwiches on warm platters with sharp knives or forks for easy eating. Garnish with cherry tomatoes or sliced tomatoes. Pass sauce or jelly.
