Number Of Ingredients 12

8 slices pumpernickel bread
8 deli slices Swiss cheese, such as Emmentaler
4 tablespoons ( stick) butter, softened
3/4 pound deli-sliced corned beef
4 rounded tablespoons spicy brown mustard
3/4 pound deli-sliced black forest ham
3 rounded tablespoons dill pickle relish
1 can sauerkraut, drained
1 shallot or 1/8 c red onion, finely chopped
4 large half-sour pickles or garlic pickles
1 rounded tablespoon capers, chopped
Gourmet potato chips

Steps:

Spread one side of each bread slice with softened butter. In a small bowl, mix together the relish, shallots, capers, and mustard. Build the sandwiches with buttered sides of the bread facing out: slather a liberal amount of the mustard mixture on 4 slices, then top with a slice of Swiss, one fourth of the corned beef, one fourth of the ham, a small mound of drained red cabbage or sauerkraut, another slice of cheese, and finally another slice of bread. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Toast the Reubens for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until the cheese melts. Cut the sammies in half and serve with pickles and chips.
