Best 10 Great Round Reuben Recipes

REUBEN IN A ROUND

Steps:

• Spoon dip into bread shell. Serve Reuben mixture with reserved bread for dipping.

REUBEN ROUNDS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Unfold puff pastry; layer with cheese, corned beef and sauerkraut to within 1/2-in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style. Trim ends and cut crosswise into 16 slices. Place on greased baking sheets, cut side down. Sprinkle with caraway seeds., Bake until golden brown, 18-20 minutes. Serve with salad dressing.

THE REAL REUBEN

Steps:

• Place bread on baking sheet or broiling pan. Layer corned beef, sauerkraut and cheese on top of bread slices.
• Broil on high heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until cheese has melted. Serve hot with Thousand Island dressing.

REUBEN GARBAGE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Season with additional salt if needed. Set aside
• Stir the baking soda into 1/3 cup of super-hot tap water until dissolved. Set aside.
• Put the sauerkraut into a large kitchen towel and wring it out over the kitchen sink to remove any excess liquid. Set aside.
• Sprinkle the dough all over with the caraway seeds then roll into a 20-by-14-inch rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Some of the caraway seeds will fall away from the dough, but a lot of the seeds should work in as you roll it out. Arrange the pastrami evenly on one half of the dough, starting on the shorter end and leaving a 1-inch border on the sides. Spread half the sauce over the pastrami. Separate the cheese pieces and shingle them over the sauce. Scatter the sauerkraut on top. Working from the short side, tightly roll up the dough into a log, jelly roll-style. Pinch the open ends together to seal, then tuck them underneath the log.
• Transfer the log, seam side-down, onto the prepared baking sheet and brush all over with the baking soda wash (you will not use all the wash). Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the bread is deep golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Let the bread cool for 10 minutes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve warm with the remaining sauce.

TOP-RATED REUBEN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to about 325 degrees F. (That's just about medium for many burners, but it also depends on if your stove is gas, electric, glass-topped, or a number of other factors -- experimenting is the surest way to find out.).
• Spread outside of each slice of rye with soft butter, about 1 Tbls per side (Scrape it thin -- too much butter makes browning more difficult and reduces crispness.).
• Place bread on grill butter side down, and put 1 slice Swiss on each side.
• Pre-heat the corned beef on a very low setting in the microwave or heat it briefly on the grill, but DON'T OVERCOOK! You want to heat, not dry out. Layer the corned beef on 1 side.
• Heat sauerkraut on grill, but do not brown. When it steams, it's ready.
• When cheese melts, remove sandwich from heat.
• Spread Louie Dressing onto side with cheese only. (This stops it from soaking into the warm bread and making it soggy.).
• Put sauerkraut onto corned beef & roughly make an even layer.
• Close sandwich, salt if you like (we do) and cut as desired. (We served it with a homemade dill pickle spear and a bit of salad.).
• Serve it hot!

MOM'S CLASSIC REUBEN

Steps:

• Spread margarine onto one side of each slice of bread. Set a large skillet over low heat, and lay 6 bread slices in it with the butter side down. If you can't fit 6, just fry in batches of 3.
• Place slices of cheese onto the bread in the skillet and let cook until the cheese starts to melt. Place slices of corned beef and chicken over the cheese, and then sauerkraut. Spread the creamy dressing onto the dry sides of the remaining slices of bread. Place dressing side down onto the sandwiches.
• Increase the heat to medium, and cook until browned on the bottom. Turn sandwiches over, and cook until golden on the other side.

• Do not let rise.
• Brush the bread again with beaten egg and place the pan in the oven.
• Bake until well browned, about 50-60 minutes.
• Place on a rack to cool.
• You can also assemble the Reuben ahead of time, then wrap it well in foil or a ziplock bag and keep it in the fridge or freezer.
• If frozen, defrost overnight in the fridge.
• To reheat, wrap in foil and heat in a 300 F or 150 C oven for 30 minutes.

REUBEN

Steps:

• Drain the sauerkraut in colander. Rinse the sauerkraut with water and squeeze out the extra moisture. In a small skillet, over medium heat, saute the bacon and onion until the onions become translucent. Pour the vegetable oil into a 4-quart saucepan. Add 1 quart of the sauerkraut, the caraway seeds, another 1 quart of sauerkraut, the bacon and onion mixture, the sugar, applesauce, and bay leaf. Cover and simmer on low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring frequently. Transfer the sauerkraut mixture to a container and refrigerate until cool.
• Thousand Island dressing:
• Add all the ingredients to a bowl and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Reuben:
• Butter 2 slices of fresh rye bread and put them on the flat top grill. Put a slice of Swiss cheese to each piece of bread. Apply the desired amount of Thousand Island dressing and sauerkraut on each slice. Heat 4 ounces of thinly sliced corned beef on the flat top. Arrange the hot corned beef on top of 1 slice of bread. Transfer the bread slices to a cutting board and make a sandwich. Slice in half and serve.
