MOM'S CLASSIC REUBEN

Mom's Classic Reuben image

My mom has always made this slightly different than the usual Reuben. I typically 'load' it, we don't like skimpy sandwiches. It is a huge hit; my kids, friends and especially my husband loves it!

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

12 slices light rye bread with caraway seeds
6 tablespoons margarine, softened
2 pounds deli sliced corned beef
1 ½ pounds thinly sliced deli chicken breast
1 pound sliced Muenster cheese
1 (16 ounce) jar sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
¼ cup creamy salad dressing, e.g. Miracle Whip ™

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.
