    This Reuben Sandwich recipe is sure to please! It's easy to make for dinner with a corned beef roast cooked in the crockpot all day, or as planned leftovers from a corned beef and cabbage dinner from a previous evening.

    ⏲️ Time needed

    These sandwiches are great for a busy weeknight because they only take about 10 minutes to assemble and grill.

    🥘 Ingredients

    • rye bread
    • sauerkraut
    • corned beef
    • Thousand Island dressing
    • Swiss cheese
    • butter

    📋 Instructions

    A sandwich maker or panini press makes this sandwich much easier to grill since you don't have to flip it. If you have one, just butter the outside of each piece of rye bread, then layer the cheese, corned beef, sauerkraut, and dressing on the inside and top with another slice of bread. Grill until golden brown on the outside of the bread.

    If you are using a pan, butter one side of each of 8 slices of rye bread and place butter side down on a large griddle. Place 1 slice of cheese on each piece of bread (I didn't have Swiss cheese when I took the photo, so I cheated and used Pepper Jack—you can see the peppers in the photo if you look closely—and it was still fantastic). Top with ¼ lb. of sliced corned beef. Place about ¼ cup sauerkraut on top of beef and top with 2 Tbsp. Thousand Island dressing.

    Butter one side of remaining bread slices and place butter side up on top of each sandwich. Turn griddle on to medium and heat until bottom of sandwiches are browned. Carefully flip the sandwiches with a large spatula and brown the other side. Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
