Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 1/4 pounds 80-percent ground beef
3/4 pound ground pork
1/3 cup dry red wine
1/2 onion
1 teaspoon dried oregano or marjoram
2 large cloves garlic, finely grated or minced
1 fresh chile pepper, finely chopped, or 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
A handful of grated Pecorino
Freshly ground pepper
EVOO, for drizzling
Salt
8 slices hard salami or Genoa salami (sliced not too thin)
4 slices provolone (sliced not too thin)
1 cup giardiniera (Italian pickled vegetables), drained and finely chopped or pulsed in a food processor
4 large kaiser rolls, or 12 small rolls for sliders
Quick Marinara Sauce, for topping, recipe follows
2 tablespoons EVOO
2 cloves garlic, grated or minced
1 fresh chile pepper, finely chopped
1/4 onion, grated
1/4 cup dry red wine
One 14-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or marjoram
A few fresh basil leaves, lightly torn
A few sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put the ground beef and pork in a large bowl and douse with the wine. Grate 3 to 4 tablespoons onion directly into the bowl to catch the juices. Add the oregano, garlic, chile, cheese, 1 tablespoon pepper and a drizzle of EVOO. Mix until just combined. Shape into 4 large patties or 12 small patties for sliders. Make an indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly and prevent them from puffing up. Sprinkle with a little salt.
  • Arrange the salami slices on a rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until they crisp up a bit, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Heat a heavy griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes for regular ones and 6 minutes for sliders. Top with the provolone and cook until melted.
  • Spread some of the giardiniera relish on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with the patties. Top with the salami and some Quick Marinara Sauce. Cover with the top halves of the rolls.
  • Heat the EVOO in a small pot over medium to medium-high heat. Add the garlic, chile and onion and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, oregano, basil and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat until thickened.

PASTRAMI RUEBEN AKA "THE RACHEL"

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
2/3 cup chili sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 dill pickle, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 1/3 cups sauerkraut, squeezed of excess moisture
8 slices marble rye bread
8 slices Swiss
1 pound pastrami, shaved or cut how you like it
Salted butter, softened

Steps:

  • For the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, sour cream, horseradish, lemon juice, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, smoked paprika, dill pickles and shallots in a food processor until thoroughly mixed. Do not over blend, you still want to see some texture. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside or refrigerate in a covered jar until serving time.
  • For the sandwich build: Combine half of the dressing with the sauerkraut and toss. Place 1 slice of cheese on a piece of bread. Pile the meat high on the cheese, top with an additional slice of cheese, some of the sauerkraut mixture and the second piece of bread. Butter the outsides of the sandwich. Heat a heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet or griddle pan over medium-low heat. Add the sandwiches, cover with a heatproof bowl and griddle until golden and gooey in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, cover and let cook until golden all around, another 3 minutes. Serve the extra dressing on the side.
  • Cook's Note: I love getting a whole piece of pastrami, uncut, from Fumare's in Chicago. If you have a favorite deli, try getting a whole piece and cutting it yourself; the meat will stay nice and tender and you can mix the bark from the end cut with the meatier middle. You'll fall in love with pastrami all over again.

REUBEN SANDWICH RECIPE BY TASTY



Reuben Sandwich Recipe by Tasty image

It's reuben time! Made with homemade Russian dressing, savory corned beef, Swiss cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and rye bread, then toasted until crisp and melty, this is a serious sandwich.

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Lunch

Time 16m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon pickle relish
2 teaspoons yellow mustard
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices rye sandwich bread
1 cup suerkraut
½ lb corned beef, sliced
4 slices swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Make the Russian dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika.
  • Make the sandwich: On a cutting board, spread ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slide of bread. Flip the bread slices over so that the buttered side is face down. Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on each slice. Add ¼ pound corned beef to 2 of the slices of bread. Top the corned beef with ½ cup of sauerkraut and 2 slices of Swiss cheese. Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side out.
  • Heat a large pan over medium-low heat. Once the pan is warm, add the sandwiches and cook, without moving, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the sandwiches over and continue cooking until the bread is golden brown and cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes more.
  • Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and cut in half. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, flavorful bread, thinly sliced corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, and creamy Thousand Island dressing.
  • Spread a generous amount of Thousand Island dressing on both slices of bread. This will help to keep the sandwich moist and flavorful.
  • If you don't have Swiss cheese, you can use another type of cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or provolone.
  • If you don't have rye bread, you can use another type of bread, such as sourdough, wheat, or white bread.
  • To make the sandwich even more flavorful, try grilling or toasting the bread before assembling it.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately, or wrap it in parchment paper and store it in the refrigerator for later.

Conclusion:

The Reuben sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's a delicious and satisfying combination of flavors and textures. With its thinly sliced corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, creamy Thousand Island dressing, and melted Swiss cheese, the Reuben is a sandwich that's sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful sandwich, give the Reuben a try. You won't be disappointed.
