- Then top with the remaining slice of bread, butter side up.

Notes
- A classic Reuben is made with rye bread, but if you'd like to switch it out for a different type of bread you can. I recommend a heartier whole grain bread so it holds up to the amount of filling in this sandwich.
- Russian Dressing vs. Thousand-Island Dressing - The two dressings are similar and you can choose your favorite for this sandwich. Russian dressing has a little more spice and heat than Thousand-Island, which is sweeter and also is made with pickles.
