Tips:
- Choose the right bread: A hearty bread like rye or pumpernickel will hold up well to the fillings and cooking process.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Leave some space between the sandwiches so they can cook evenly.
- Cook on low for 4-6 hours: This will allow the sandwiches to cook through and the flavors to meld.
- Add a cup of water to the slow cooker: This will help to prevent the sandwiches from drying out.
- Top with Swiss cheese and Thousand Island dressing just before serving: This will keep the cheese from getting tough and the dressing from getting soggy.
