Ingredients

  1. 2 russet potatoes, scrubbed
  2. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  3. 8 ounces thinly shaved pastrami
  4. 1 cup sauerkraut
  5. 4 slices Swiss cheese
  6. 18,000 Island Dressing, recipe follows
  7. 1/4 cup sliced pickled cherry peppers
  8. 2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
  9. 1 cup sour cream
  10. 1/4 cup ketchup
  11. 2 tablespoons minced pickled jalapenos
  12. 2 tablespoons minced dill pickles
  13. 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  14. 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
  15. Kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Prick the potato skins all over. Bake the potatoes in aluminum foil wrappers until tender, for 45 minutes.
  3. Remove potatoes from the oven and preheat the broiler. Remove the aluminum foil and slice each potato down the middle, opening slightly. Place on a baking sheet. With a fork scrape out flesh, setting aside for another use. Sprinkle shells with salt and pepper. Divide the pastrami among the halves, then top each with sauerkraut and a slice of cheese. Place the potatoes under the broiler until bubbling and golden, 4 to 5 minutes.
  4. Top each half with a dollop of 18,000 Island Dressing, pickled peppers and chives. Serve immediately.
  5. Combine the sour cream, ketchup, jalapenos, pickles, Dijon, garlic and some salt in a bowl. Stir, taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.

OH MY! delicious and I just put on Corn beef and the cheese! Better than the hash I usually make.
