Description

A delicious Reuben sandwich packed with flavors of corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a tangy sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon Horseradish
  • ½ teaspoon Sriracha
  • ⅛ teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • pinch Salt and Pepper to taste
  • pound Cooked Corned Beef (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon Butter (softened)
  • 4 slices Rye Bread
  • 4 slices Swiss Cheese
  • ½ cup Sauerkraut (drained)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together MAYONNAISE, KETCHUP, HORSERADISH, SRIRACHA, WORCESTERSHIRE, SALT, and PEPPER until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
  3. Add the CORNED BEEF to the warm skillet and heat gently just until warmed through, about 1–2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  4. Butter one side of each slice of RYE BREAD. Place two slices of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet and spread Reuben sauce on the top sides.
  5. Layer SWISS CHEESE, warmed CORNED BEEF, and well-drained SAUERKRAUT. Top with another slice of SWISS CHEESE and close the sandwich, butter-side facing out.
  6. Cook 3–4 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip and cook another 3–4 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula, until the cheese is melted and the bread is crisp.
  7. Rest a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding some pickles to the sandwich.
