Classic Toasted Reuben Club

A hearty sandwich layering corned beef, Swiss cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and crispy bacon between three slices of toasted rye bread spread with Russian dressing. The crunch of the toasted bread perfectly complements the savory, tangy fillings.

Steps

1. Cook the bacon until crispy and set aside. 2. Lightly toast the rye bread slices. 3. Spread Russian dressing evenly on one side of each bread slice. 4. On the first slice, layer corned beef and Swiss cheese. 5. Place the second slice of bread dressing side down on top, then add sauerkraut and bacon. 6. Top with the final slice of bread, dressing side down. 7. Butter the outside of the sandwich and grill in a skillet over medium heat. 8. Press gently and cook until the bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. 9. Remove from skillet, let cool slightly, then slice in half and serve.
