No one in my family likes them except me.  But I love them.

Damn all of you!!!
First it's Lobsters and now Ruebens. I've got so much drool on my desk I need a wet/dry vac.
How about a Lobster Reuben. Could be the next best Fair Food. Maybe batter it and deep fry it too!
I gotta go eat now thank you very much.
Slammer!!!

Lonesome Reuben liked 'em; so do I. Slammer, top it off with a battered, deep fried twinkie. Mmmmmmmm! ;-)

My Reuben:

In a steamer basket place in order:

Corned Beef, thin slices layered about 1/2" thick

Sauerkraut (I use homemade) about 1/2" thick

Gruyere cheese slice

Steam until cheese melts.

Place between slices of Rye bread (buttered on outsides) with a generous helping of Reuben sauce (below). Brown on each side.

Reuben Sauce:

1 Tblsp mayonnaise

1 Tsp chili sauce (or ketchup)

1 Tsp horseradish

1 Tsp chopped dill pickle

Salt and pepper to taste

Mix all together.

 OK...I'm going to have to try to make one of those bad boys this weekend, thanks!! I'm already hungry!!

The Ruben sauce mentioned above sounds really really good.

The Boardwalk Café also mentioned above uses a sauce although I’m not sure what is in it but it just elevates the sandwich to a whole different class.

I’m going to try and make the above sauce.

Thanks

  Oh man, you guys are killing me.  Haven't had breakfast yet.  DROOL !

I wish you people wouldn't post about stuff that makes me hungry. I'm on a "doggie diet." My Pyrenese stays in the house when it's hot out, and since he weighs about 150# and wants to "share" everything I have, I 1) have to be careful to only eat things that aren't harmful to him, and 2) don't eat much. I don't want to take the time to make a reuben sandwich just to feed my dog.

Oh yeah!  kraut and horseradish.  Can't beat it!

I like Reubens with a hot mustard rather than the Russian Dressing.

Another variant is the Cold Reuben- sliced corned beef (I prefer black pastrami), Swiss cheese and cole slaw.

Love Reuben sandwiches....WITHOUT the thousand Island dressing they slather on it here...that sweet pickle **** in that dressing just ruins it. Dill would certainly do better. I'm a horseradish, dark mustard, & a touch of mayo person on my Reuben. Goes alot better with the kraut....although that Reuben sauce up top here (mullie1) looks promising...I'm still partial to the mustard/horseradish tang more so than anything with a tomato base when Kraut's on the sandwich.

michael6 - Posted - 07/08/2011:  13:44:24

Yes ! A great sandwich.

A year ago I was having lunch in Passau, Bavaria. They served a Wiener with shredded horse radish, mustard and a pretzel. No roll, no tatties or veggies, no hardware- just dip the Wienerwurst into the horseradish and mustard and nibble away.
