Lady Rose's Marble Rye Classic Reuben Sandwich image

My neighbor Lisa gave me a loaf of Marble Rye Bread, and I used it to make Saturday Night's Dinner. I made Reuben sandwiches. I hadn't made them in quite some time. I use to make them all the time when I was working and pressed for time, but today, I made them just because I was given the bread, & GOT HOME LATE FROM...

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb premium corned beef, sliced very thin
10-12 slice lorraine or alpine lace swiss cheese (or your favorite)
1 loaf marble rye bread (or bread of your choice)
1 bottle thousand island salad dressing (will not need it all)
1 can(s) sauerkraut, canned (squeezed dry)
soft spread margerine ( i used can't beleive it's not butter)

Steps:

  • 1. I like to do 3 or 4 sandwiches at a time, sometimes I use my griddle, but today I used my 16 inch non stick skillet.
  • 2. I also like to use a large platter like the one in the picture. I also use a Cast Iron Bacon Press to weigh the sandwiches down, so hasten the browning process, over medium high heat. You can make these any way you like, I am merely giving you my version.
  • 3. Butter the slices of bread on one side. Then lay the buttered side down on the platter. UNBUTTERED SIDE FACING UP. I am showing what the other side looks like when buttered.
  • 4. PLACE A SLICE OF CHEESE on the opened side.
  • 5. Next add the drained sauerkraut on top of the cheese, enough to cover the full slice of bread.
  • 6. Top the sauerkraut with a generous amount of a good quality thousand Island dressing. I used Kraft.
  • 7. Now add a generous amount of thinly sliced Corned Beef.
  • 8. Top the Corned Beef with a second slice of cheese.
  • 9. To that add the other slice of buttered bread. Repeat these steps until all of the sandwiches are made.
  • 10. Now take the platter and with a thin spatula, lift the sandwiches from the platter and into the heated skillet. Place a weighted cast iron press over the sandwiches, and wait for about 5 or 6 minutes and then flip to brown the other side. Add the press if desired.
  • 11. Remove from Skillet, and cut in half if desired, or serve whole. Repeat steps if you have more sandwiches.
