Ingredients
- 4 tsp. unsalted butter, softened
- 4 slices Rye & Pumpernickel Deli Swirl Bread
- 4 tbsp. Russian dressing
- ½ cup sauerkraut, drained
- 8 slices Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
- ½ lb. corned beef, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Lightly butter one side of each rye bread slice with one teaspoon butter. Place two slices, buttered side down in a large skillet.
- Spread one tablespoon of the Russian dressing on top of each each slice in the skillet. Top each slice with 2 slices Swiss cheese. Top the Swiss cheese with 1/4 cup sauerkraut. Top each sandwich evenly with the corned beef and then two more slices each of Swiss cheese.
- Spread dry side of of second slices of bread with another tablespoon of Russian dressing and place it on top of the Swiss cheese buttered side up.
- Grill the sandwiches over medium-low heat until both sides are lightly browned and cheese is melted and corned beef is heated through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
Notes
- I like to use lean corned beef from the deli counter for our sandwiches. I have them slice the corned beef nice and thin. I use about 6 or 7 slices per sandwich.
- I use two layers of Swiss cheese. Two slices at the bottom of the sandwich and two slices on top.
- You can enjoy your reuben sandwich hot or cold. We love ours grilled.
