Preheat oven to 200°.
In a shallow pan with a wire whisk, beat eggs, salt and pepper until blended set aside.
Butter bread, using 2 tablespoons of the butter. On each of four slices bread, layer one slice of the cheese, one-fourth of the pastrami, one slice of the cheese and top with a second slice of bread, buttered-side down. Press each sandwich together firmly with the palm of your hand. Dip both sides of sandwiches in egg mixture.
Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. When hot, melt 1/2 tablespoon of the remaining butter. Brown two sandwiches for 4 minutes on each side or until cheese melts. Transfer to an ovenproof platter. Place in oven. Brown remaining two sandwiches in remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter.
Cut sandwiches in half before serving.
Serve with whole dill pickles, potato chips and an orange.
