A nostalgic and comforting sandwich featuring corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian dressing on rye bread.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 slices Rye bread Freshly sliced for the perfect crust or marble rye for color.
- 1 pound Corned beef Use good quality for best results.
- 4 slices Swiss cheese Let it hang over edges for melty goodness.

- ¼ cup Russian dressing Can substitute with a mixture of mayo and ketchup.
Instructions
Preparation
- Gather your ingredients to have everything ready.

Cooking
- Place a slice of rye bread on the skillet, dressing side up, and add a quarter of the corned beef.
- Add a slice of Swiss cheese and half a cup of sauerkraut on top.
- Cap it with another slice of bread, dressing side down, and press gently.
- Flip the sandwich when the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

Notes
Don’t rush the grilling; ensure the heat is moderate, and consider pairing with a salad or sweet potato fries. Leftovers can be reheated in a skillet to retain crispiness.
