SAUSAGE REUBEN

Steps:

• Slice each link down the middle, but not all the way through through, then spread the link open (butterfly). Fry the links until lightly browned on each side in a frying pan.
• Melt/soften the butter and spread on all twelve slices of bread, then turn the bread over.
• Spread the hot/spicy mustard (I use a jalapeno mustard) on all 12 slices. You should now have twelve slices of bread with butter on the bottom and mustard on the top.
• Heat the sauerkraut in a sauce pan until thoroughly heated, then drain all the excess juice, pressing out as much of the juice as you can. Discard the juice. I do this so the sandwich doesn't get soggy.
• Working with six slices of the bread (with butter on the down side and the mustard side up), place sliced cheese (enough to cover the bread), then a sausage link (spread open), then a heap of sauerkraut, followed my another slice of cheese. Then top with a slice of bread, butter side up. You should end up with 6 sandwiches.
• Brown the sandwiches (both sides) in a frying pan, griddle, or Panini press (my personal choice).
• When cheese is melted and the bread is lightly toasted, remove from heat, let stand 5 minutes. Slice each sandwich diagonally. Serve with a dill pickle slice and your favorite chips.
