I sometimes wonder if I'm German Jewish, because of my love of the Reuben Sandwich.
I looked up the origin of the Reuben Sandwich and tend to believe Arnold Reuben as the actual inventor of this delicious sandwich.
Reuben Sandwich
I made a really delicious Reuben Sandwich.
Ingredients:
Since I didn't have RYE BREAD, I improvised with 1/4th slice of submarine wheat roll
Deli corned beef (I bought mine at Sam's)
swiss cheese (I recommend Castle Wood Baby Swiss Cheese)
Sauerkraut (recommend Vlasic brand - in a jar - never in can)
Sandwich sauce
Slices of Kosher pickles (recommend Vlasic brand)
Sandwich Sauce:
Add to a small bowl add:
1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup catsup
1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
A FEW sprinkles of Splenda or regular sugar (optional)
Mix well
Spread both top and bottom of the roll with the sauce
Add as many layers of swiss cheese as you want
Add as many layers of sliced corn beef as you want
Top with DRAINED sauerkraut
Micro wave just for a FEW seconds
You won't see the kosher pickle because I was out of them.
Note: I found rye bread at Alberton's and bought a small loaf that was quite expensive. I also bought a bag of rye flour, and some caraway seed, because a loaf will be much more less expensive by my making it myself.

I hope you try making it with the wheat roll to see just how much tastier it is!
Yes, it was a total yum!
You hear that?
My stomach just roared, "Gimme dat beef!"
:D
Oh, and I heard your stomach roar all the way here!
Double smooches!
When you do make it, just be sure to add a few SPECKS of sugar to the sauce. I think the next time I make one, I'll place the swiss cheese on a plate and micor it to the point where it starts to get really soft, then I'll place in the sandwich and micro the whole thing to where everything gets warm.
I honestly feel you'll love it more than any you've bought ready made.
Next time I make it, perhaps I'll experiment by adding a few sprinkles of crushed caraway seed to the submarine wheat roll to get the taste of rye. Since I'm such a frugal (tight wad) person, I hated spending so much money on such a tiny loaf of rye bread from the deli.
It would probably be better with Ron's home made kraut
I sure would love to have your recipe!
Send me a good address and I will send you a pint immediately. The pleasure is mine sweetie.
I can send it with a recipie also
