Directions
Reuben Sandwich Our Way,This is how we make our Reuben sandwiches at our house. They’re hearty, messy, usually require the aid of a knife and fork, and are absolutely delicious! We think it’s because we make our own dressing… you can call it Thousand Island or French, whathaveyou. All we know is that we gladly lick it off our fingers when it dribbles. 🙂 It’s also a Pantry Challenge recipe, made with items we already had at home.,This is great… loved the dressing. I’ll definitely make this again. A Reuben never appealed to me until my husband had a friend that said how good they are… now we are Reuben lovers! It’a a versatile recipe… the sauce is enough for several sandwiches, so just get the amount of bread (we use marble rye), corned beef (or pastrami), and cheese you need to feed as many people as you want. I double the sauce recipe and we keep it in the fridge for more sandwiches and salads. Thanks for a great recipe… and my kids love the dressing, so we’ll also use it for salad dressing!

4
Done

Assemble the Sandwich: on Top of the Bread, Place the Sliced Pastrami; Top Meat With a Couple of Tablespoons of the Dressing; Then Spread the Sauerkraut Over, Add Some More Dressing, Top With the Cheese, Then Place the Other Slice of Bread- Buttered Side Up- on Top (this Arrangement Helps Keep the Dressing from Soaking the Bread Too Much). |

5
Done
|
Cover the Grilling Sandwich With a Lid (a Reverware Saucepan Lid Works Well For This) and Let Grill For 2 to 3 Minutes, Checking to Make Sure That the Bread Does not Burn- the Idea Is to Heat the Air Underneath the Lid and Melt the Cheese Easier as You're Also Browning the Bread. |

Carefully Turn the Sandwich, Re-Cover, and Grill Other Side. (i Say "carefully" Because, Depending on How Much of the Fillings You Put in, This Step Can Get a Little Messy -- ). |
