Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Sprinkle the corned beef with a little water, wrap it tightly in aluminum foil and steam it in the oven.
- Meanwhile, put the whole loaf of rye bread (unwrapped) into the oven. Bake the bread until the crust is very crunchy, about 15 minutes. Set the bread on the counter and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
- When the rye bread is cool enough to handle place it on a cutting board. Hold the bread knife at a 45-degree angle and cut 12 slices.
- Take the corned beef out of the oven and unwrap it. Spread each slice of bread with Russian dressing. Layer half of the slices with corned beef, sauerkraut and slices of Swiss cheese, then top the sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread (dressing-side down).
- Heat 2 large heavy skillets over medium heat. Brush the bread with butter. Put the sandwiches in the pans and weight them with a lid or heat proof bowl topped with something heavy. Cook until the first sides are crisp and golden about 7 minutes then flip the sandwiches. Cook until the second sides are also well toasted and the cheese is melted. Lift the sandwiches onto a cutting board. Cut each in half diagonally and serve.
- Combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, sour cream, parsley, onion, pickle, lemon juice, horseradish and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl and mix well.
TOP-RATED REUBEN SANDWICH
The Reuben is the epitome of the great deli sandwiches... every ingredient is important as well as how it's prepared. This is how we make our own Reuben, and we've been told it's the best in the Northwest. It takes making your own ingredients in several cases, but we certainly feel it's worth the trip, as have our fans.

Steps:
- Preheat your grill to about 325 degrees F. (That's just about medium for many burners, but it also depends on if your stove is gas, electric, glass-topped, or a number of other factors -- experimenting is the surest way to find out.).
- Spread outside of each slice of rye with soft butter, about 1 Tbls per side (Scrape it thin -- too much butter makes browning more difficult and reduces crispness.).
- Place bread on grill butter side down, and put 1 slice Swiss on each side.
- Pre-heat the corned beef on a very low setting in the microwave or heat it briefly on the grill, but DON'T OVERCOOK! You want to heat, not dry out. Layer the corned beef on 1 side.
- Heat sauerkraut on grill, but do not brown. When it steams, it's ready.
- When cheese melts, remove sandwich from heat.
- Spread Louie Dressing onto side with cheese only. (This stops it from soaking into the warm bread and making it soggy.).
- Put sauerkraut onto corned beef & roughly make an even layer.
- Close sandwich, salt if you like (we do) and cut as desired. (We served it with a homemade dill pickle spear and a bit of salad.).
- Serve it hot!

BEST REUBEN SANDWICH
This Reuben sandwich recipe is very hearty. When you take one bite of the buttery grilled rye bread, the hot sliced corned beef with melted cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing, you're in sandwich heaven. Pick up sliced corned beef from the deli or use homemade St. Patrick's Day corned beef. Either way, this...

Steps:
- 1. If preparing your own corned beef, you will want to slow cook a 3 pound flat cut corned brisket on high for about 6 hours.
- 2. Add a dark stout beer; one bottle will be more than enough. It gives your corned beef a wonderful flavor.
- 3. If you cook your own corned beef you will want to completely chill it so you can slice it thin. I cook my corned beef a couple days before I plan on using it.
- 4. Slice the corned beef into thin slices.
- 5. Grill or heat up your corned beef before assembling the sandwiches.
- 6. To assemble the Rueben, lay out the rye bread and brush one side of each slice with butter.
- 7. Turn over bread and spread both pieces of the bread with a layer of Thousand Island dressing.
- 8. Lay a piece of Swiss cheese on each piece of bread.
- 9. Then put desired amount of corned beef on one of the slices of bread.
- 10. Followed by about 1/3 to 1/2 cup sauerkraut.
- 11. Put the other slice of bread and cheese on top and grill until golden brown on either side.
- 12. Be very careful not to overcook. You don't want to burn your sandwich.
- 13. Now cut in half, serve and enjoy!
Tips:
- Use high-quality rye bread for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the corned beef is thinly sliced so it's tender and easy to eat.
- Use a good quality Swiss cheese that melts well.
- Sauerkraut should be well-drained and rinsed before using.
- Thousand Island dressing should be creamy and flavorful.
- Toast the bread before assembling the sandwich for a crispy texture.
- Serve the sandwich immediately after assembling so the bread doesn't get soggy.

The Reuben sandwich is a classic deli sandwich that is loved by people all over the world. It's a hearty and flavorful sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With its combination of savory corned beef, melted Swiss cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and creamy Thousand Island dressing, the Reuben sandwich is sure to please everyone.
