tonight t'was Reuben's - MY way!

My Reuben's are different than other folks as we do not like the sweet 1000 Island taste. That said then if you are still with me - the meat here are 1/4" thick slices of corned beef cooked sous vide for St Pat's 2016. The bread is seedless Pepperidge Farm Rye. The cheese is Boar's Head. The mayo is on the inside and ICBINB was on the grilling side. Oh...the kraut is Franks. After browning/grilling I served them with a tasty McClures dill pickle spear on the side. Trust me, folks - these Reuben's - MY way knocked our socks off! Preparation takes the time - the grilling is short and quick.

    Noms.  I like to do without the ruskie dressing too, sometimes a touch of mustard.   :)

    Ron.... I love Rubens..and would love to try your way. What is ICBNB? Which BH Swis did you use? 

    ..I'm a 1000 island traditionalist myself. I do like a Pastrami Ruben equally as well as corn beef. A good dill is the perfect side item. I am game for change....

    Me too! Back here in the MidWest we have a kick butt stone ground mustard which has won a boo-koo of awards. The brand is BOETJE'S. I didn't show any it but it was on the table for toe dipping as we call it!

    the BH was the baby Swiss. as for ICBINB is that olive oil enriched I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. It really works great for grilled toasted sandwiches

    Ron, if I had your money mine would be different too ;)
    On a serious note, great looking grub my friend.

    My wife would drool on the screen looking at that. I dont like kraut. My wife dips hers in beaten egg and griddles them. Like a lightly dipped french toast or something.

    Well clog my arteries! That is as good as it gets Ron. I think a Reuben is a gourmet's treat. Thank you for sharing.

    Looks great.  Reuben is my favorite deli sangwhich

    Looks great but I personally would quadruple up on that corned beef (or pastrami), but I've been spoiled by massive east coast reubens.  Although you really can't go wrong.

    Bread>dressing>swiss>two layers corned beef/pastrami>small piece of swiss>two layers of corned beef/pastrami>kraut>dressing>swiss>bread

    I toasted the bread, then wrapped in aluminum foil and baked it at 400 for 15ish minutes until the cheese, dressing and kraut become one huge mess
