This classic deli favorite is all about the tender and flavorful corned beef, nestled between slices of fresh bread, and topped with tangy mustard and crunchy pickles. What’s so special about these sandwiches is the unbeatable combination of flavors and textures. The corned beef, slow-cooked to perfection, boasts a savory and slightly salty taste that pairs beautifully with the tangy mustard and the crispness of the pickles. Together, they create a harmonious blend of flavors that will have you coming back for seconds. Let’s begin!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 slices of rye bread or your preferred bread
  • 1 pound of sliced corned beef
  • 1/2 cup sauerkraut, drained
  • 4 slices of Swiss cheese
  • 1/4 cup mustard
  • Pickles, for topping
  • Butter or cooking spray, for grilling

Instructions

  1. Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat.
  2. Assemble the sandwiches by spreading mustard on one side of each slice of bread. Layer corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese on four of the slices. Top with the remaining slices of bread to create four sandwiches.
  3. Lightly butter the outer sides of the sandwiches or spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  4. Place the sandwiches on the preheated griddle or skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  5. Remove the sandwiches from the heat and let them cool slightly before slicing. Serve with pickles on the side.

Notes

Make sure to choose quality corned beef from your local deli or butcher for the best flavor and texture. If you prefer a toasted sandwich with a bit of crunch, you can use a panini press or a sandwich press to grill the sandwiches. Feel free to customize your sandwiches by adding other toppings like sliced tomatoes, onions, or a drizzle of Russian dressing. Serve with a side of cole slaw or chips for a complete meal and enjoy!
