Grilled Split Kielbasa Reubens With Warm Mustard Sauerkraut Recipes

GRILLED SPLIT KIELBASA REUBENS WITH WARM MUSTARD SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat griddle pan to medium-high heat.
• Heat small skillet over medium heat.
• Mix sauerkraut, beer or cider, and mustard in small skillet and simmer 10 minutes.
• Cut kielbasa into 4 portions and split sausage pieces in half, opening them up.
• Grill the sausages on hot griddle until crispy on both sides, about 7-8 minutes total.
• Wipe some of the grease off the griddle and drop heat to low.
• Lightly butter 1 side of each slice of bread. Build butter-side out sandwiches out of grilled kielbasa, sauerkraut, and 2 slices of cheese; spread the top of each sandwich with red pepper relish before setting in place.
• Grill the sandwich on griddle until crispy.
• Cut and serve.

GRILLED TURKEY REUBENS

Steps:

• Whisk together mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl until blended.
• Spread one side of each bread slice with this mixture.
• Dividing evenly, top four of the bread slices with half of the cheese, turkey, and sauerkraut.
• Add remaining cheese.
• Top with remaining bread slices, coated sides down.
• Place butter and oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold all four sandwiches.
• Place over medium heat.
• When butter melts, add sandwiches.
• Cook, pressing down gently with a metal spatula, until the bread is golden brown and cheese has melted, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add more butter and oil if needed.

GRILLED KIELBASA RING WITH SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high (if you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Using your hands, remove about 1/2 cup bread from each side of the loaf. Brush hollowed-out sides of bread with oil.
• Grill kielbasa, flipping once, until browned and heated through, 8 to 10 minutes. Grill bread, flipping once, until lightly marked by grill, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer kielbasa and bread to a cutting board. Halve kielbasa crosswise. Spread hollowed-out sides of bread with mustard; top each with half of the sauerkraut and a halved kielbasa ring. Cut each into 4 wedges. Serve immediately.
