Lay out the slices of bread. Spread the softened butter thinly on one side of the different bread slices, which will be the top and bottom of the sandwich. Lay the bread slices butter-side down on a clean surface.
Divide the shredded cheese into two equal portions and the turkey into two equal portions. On the first buttered slice, layer half the cheese, half the turkey, and the tomato slices. Season the tomato with the pepper. Place the unbuttered middle slice of bread on top. Add the remaining cheese and turkey to that slice, then top with the final buttered slice of bread, buttered-side facing up.
Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and cover with a lid. Cook for 4 minutes until the bottom is deep golden. Carefully flip the sandwich and press down gently with a spatula. Cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more until the bread is toasted and the cheese is visibly oozing at the edges. Done when cheese is melted and bread is golden, 160°F.
