Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup, pickle relish, lemon juice and horseradish until well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. In a skillet over medium-low heat, add the corned beef and 2 teaspoons of water or broth. Heat the corned beef stirring as needed until warm. Remove from the heat.
  3. Butter one side of each slice of bread. Lay 2 slices of bread, butter side down on a cutting board.
  4. Spread some of the Russian dressing on each slice of bread. Top with corned beef, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. Close bread slices to create a sandwich, butter side out.
  5. Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Place the bread on the skillet and cook covered for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and cook the other side, uncovered until crispy and golden brown.

Notes

  • Drain as much liquid as possible from the sauerkraut to prevent the sandwich from getting soggy.
  • Good quality rye bread is key to the best Reuben sandwich ever!
  • You can use a panini press or a griddle instead of a skillet, if you prefer.
  • Cook the Reuben sandwich over medium-low heat for best results.
