Again a really delicious sandwich, and it’s so, so easy to make.
I made the sandwich as directed and it turned out great! Everyone remarked how wonderful it was.
Love this recipe!!!
Super easy and fast. But better than that, it was an amazing sandwich!. We’ve had it several times since I found this recipe. Loved it!
Toasting in the oven has really made this recipe. I usually toast on the stove top, the broiler was much easier and taste excellent. Also, used thousand island instead of chilli mayo. Slow cooked the corned beef in a crock pot with a porter beer, red onion, black pepper and that packet they include. This was by far my best Reuben ever!!!
11-28-11: This recipe produces something equivalent in quality to a good delicatessen. 1-31-13: Still better is “The Real Reuben” recipe from this site.
I used a spicy chili sauce instead of the typical mild store brand and added a slice or 2 of pastrami. Great stuff, will be keeping this one.
We really like these. Followed the recipe using a rye/pumpernickel swirl bread and a stove top grill pan instead of broiler. This worked out great and we will make them again. Thanks for sharing!
I don’t like chili sauce so I used Russian dressing. WOW. Not bad at all! Hubby loved it!
we really liked these. I did use thousand Island dressing for the sauce though.

Delicious!Instead of sauerkraut,we used a jar of sweet-sour red cabbage,and spray butter on outside of sandwich before broiling. Definetly a keeper!
i like the idea of using a broiler instead of frying in a pan with a lot of butter. next time, i’ll stick with 1000 dressing instead of the mayo/chili sauce combo. otherwise, an easy sandwich.
will try them again sometime i will try a different one that i have first before going back to this one
