Ingredients
For the Russian Dressing
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons pickle relish sweet
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- salt to taste, kosher salt
- black pepper to taste, kosher salt
For the Sandwiches
- 8 lices rye bread sourdough bread or marbled rye also work well, or pumpernickel bread
- ¼ cup butter at room temperature, salted, adjust to taste
- ¾ lb. pastrami or corned beef, thinly sliced, cooked
- 1 cup sauerkraut drained (or use coleslaw
- 8 lices swiss cheese
Instructions
Make the Dressing
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, relish, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Assemble the Sandwiches
- Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place 4 slices, buttered-side down, on a cutting board. Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on each of the 4 slices. Top each slice with ¼ of the corned beef or pastrami, ¼ cup of sauerkraut, and 2 slices of Swiss cheese. Top each sandwich with one of the remaining slices of bread, buttered-side up.
Cook the Sandwiches
- Heat a griddle or large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches to the griddle and cook until golden brown on one side, about 4 minutes. Use a spatula to flip the sandwiches over and continue cooking until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 4 more minutes.
Notes
- Cook the sandwiches slowly so that the inside of the sandwiches can heat through and the cheese can melt without the bread burning. If the bread is browning too quickly before the cheese melts, reduce the heat to low and cover the sandwiches with the lid of a saucepan or other pot.
