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!

Time 25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

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.

Overall, this is a good Reuben sandwich recipe. With a few minor tweaks, it could be even better.

The sandwich was a bit dry. I think I'll add some butter or mayonnaise to the bread next time.

The sandwich was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less corned beef next time.

I'm not sure why this recipe calls for Swiss cheese. I think a good sharp cheddar would be a better choice.

I grilled the sandwich instead of pan-frying it and it was amazing! The grilled bread added a nice smoky flavor.

I used homemade rye bread for this sandwich and it was delicious. The hearty rye bread held up well to the fillings.

The Thousand Island dressing is a must for this sandwich. It adds a creamy and flavorful touch.

I'm not a big fan of sauerkraut, but I really enjoyed it in this sandwich. It added a nice crunch and tang.
