Madonnas Triple Decker Reuben Sandwich Recipes

TRIPLE-DECKER MINI REUBENS

Steps:

• Cut each slice of cheese in half crosswise, then cut each half diagonally to form 2 triangles.
• Toast 6 bread slices; spread dressing evenly over 1 side of each slice. Brush melted butter over 1 side of each slice of remaining untoasted bread. Place 6 bread slices, buttered sides down, on work surface; spread each with 1 teaspoon mustard. Divide pastrami evenly over mustard-coated bread slices; top each with 2 tablespoons sauerkraut, 1 cheese triangle and 1 toasted bread slice, dressing side up. Divide corned beef evenly over dressing-coated bread slices; top each with 2 tablespoons sauerkraut, 1 cheese triangle and remaining bread slices, buttered sides up. Secure sandwiches with toothpicks.
• Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook sandwiches 6 to 10 minutes, turning once, until lightly browned and cheese is melted.
• Using electric knife or serrated knife, carefully cut each sandwich into 4 rectangles. Secure each mini sandwich with 6-inch bamboo skewer. Garnish with cornichons.

REUBEN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler on high. Mix together the ketchup, mayonnaise, horseradish, shallot and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl.
• Lay out half of the bread and divide the pastrami among the slices. Top with the sauerkraut, followed by the cheese. Arrange the open-faced sandwiches on a large rimmed baking sheet and broil a few inches from the element until the cheese is melted and browned in spots, about 3 minutes. Spread a generous amount of the Russian dressing on the remaining slices of bread and make sandwiches. Serve immediately.

REUBEN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread each slice of bread with thousand island dressing. Top 4 of the bread slices with sauerkraut, cheese and pastrami. Place remaining bread slices on sandwich. Spread margarine on the outsides of each sandwich.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Grill until browned, then turn and grill until heated through, and cheese is melted.

TOP-RATED REUBEN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to about 325 degrees F. (That's just about medium for many burners, but it also depends on if your stove is gas, electric, glass-topped, or a number of other factors -- experimenting is the surest way to find out.).
• Spread outside of each slice of rye with soft butter, about 1 Tbls per side (Scrape it thin -- too much butter makes browning more difficult and reduces crispness.).
• Place bread on grill butter side down, and put 1 slice Swiss on each side.
• Pre-heat the corned beef on a very low setting in the microwave or heat it briefly on the grill, but DON'T OVERCOOK! You want to heat, not dry out. Layer the corned beef on 1 side.
• Heat sauerkraut on grill, but do not brown. When it steams, it's ready.
• When cheese melts, remove sandwich from heat.
• Spread Louie Dressing onto side with cheese only. (This stops it from soaking into the warm bread and making it soggy.).
• Put sauerkraut onto corned beef & roughly make an even layer.
• Close sandwich, salt if you like (we do) and cut as desired. (We served it with a homemade dill pickle spear and a bit of salad.).
• Serve it hot!

GRILLED TRIPLE-DECKER HOT DOG SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat grill to 450 degrees F.
• Grill the hot dogs until nice and charred on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Butter the cut sides of the hoagie roll halves and grill, cut side-down, until charred, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Using a skewer or the tip of a small paring knife, poke about 10 holes in the bottom of a TK pan. Spray the entire pan with nonstick cooking spray (this is an important step). Now, layer in this order: one-third each of the charred hot dogs, Cheddar, provolone and salami. Repeat the layers 2 more times, making sure to finish with a layer of salami. Make sure that every layer is a snug fit, like you would a lasagna.
• Put the pan on the grill and close the lid. Grill until the cheese has melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the grill and let rest for about 5 minutes. Run a paring knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the loaf. Turn the pan out onto a cutting board, unveiling the hot dog loaf. Slice the loaf crosswise into 6 pieces, just as you would a meatloaf. To build your sandwich: start with your hot dog loaf on the bottom bun, then top with mustard, lettuce, tomato and a sprinkling of celery salt. Finish with the top bun.

ITALIAN CLUB FINGER SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Trim all crusts from bread. Spread 4 slices with herb soft cheese. Top each cheese covered slice with 2 slices each of prosciutto, 3 leaves of arugula, thinly sliced tomatoes seasoned with a pinch of salt. Place a completed layer a top another, making 2 stacks each 2 layers high. Set the final trimmed bread slices in place, making 2 triple-decker sandwiches. Thinly slice and salt the radishes. Pierce a couple of thin slices of radish on each toothpick as you place 4 toothpicks in each sandwich. Cut each sandwich into 4 equal parts, cutting the sandwich across evenly on each side. The yield will be 8 triple-decker, square-shaped, "club" finger sandwiches, 2 per portion.

KARDEA'S REUBENS

Steps:

• For the Sea Island dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, sriracha, House Seasoning and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the Reubens: Melt 1 tablespoon butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with a little salt. Cook until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sauerkraut and cook until the mixture begins to brown, about 5 more minutes. Remove the onion and sauerkraut from the skillet to a medium bowl, and set aside. Wipe out the skillet, if necessary, for cooking the sandwiches.
• Spread some Sea Island dressing on each of 6 slices of bread, then top each with 1 slice of the cheese, some corned beef, fried sauerkraut and onions and another slice of cheese. Top each with the remaining slices of bread.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Add three sandwiches. Cook until each side is golden and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining butter and sandwiches.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.

REUBEN SANDWICH RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the Russian dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika.
• Make the sandwich: On a cutting board, spread ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slide of bread. Flip the bread slices over so that the buttered side is face down. Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on each slice. Add ¼ pound corned beef to 2 of the slices of bread. Top the corned beef with ½ cup of sauerkraut and 2 slices of Swiss cheese. Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side out.
• Heat a large pan over medium-low heat. Once the pan is warm, add the sandwiches and cook, without moving, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the sandwiches over and continue cooking until the bread is golden brown and cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes more.
• Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and cut in half. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

MONTREAL REUBEN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
• Lightly butter one side of each bread slice. Place buttered-sides down on the preheated skillet. Place 1 1/2 pieces of Swiss cheese on top of each bread slice, then spread Thousand Island on top.
• While sandwich halves are toasting, place corned beef on one side of a microwave-safe plate and sauerkraut on the other side. Cover with a dampened paper towel and microwave on high for 90 seconds.
• Remove bread from the skillet. Add hot corned beef and sauerkraut and close to form a sandwich.
• Serve with dill pickle.

TRIPLE DECKER SUB RECIPE BY TASTY

• On a cutting board, cut and discard the ends. Cut the cucumbers in half. Scoop out the seeds and discard.
• Spread mustard on one half of the prepared cucumber and mayonnaise on the other.
• Layer the roast beef, turkey, ham, and cheddar cheese, and close the sandwich.
• Enjoy!

TRIPLE-DECKER STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Up to 2 days before, place the meat in a dish with the garlic, thyme, 4 tbsp of the olive oil and some freshly ground pepper. Cover and chill until needed. To make the sauce, tip the gherkins, capers, red onion and parsley into a bowl. Add ayonnaise to just bind the ingredients. Season to taste with Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco. Set aside.
• Heat a pan until very hot and starting to smoke. Remove the meat from the marinade and sear the meat in the pan for about 20 mins until it's really browned and cooked to medium-rare. If the pan isn't big enough, you may need to do one piece at a time. Set the meat aside to rest.
• Trim the loaf to a rough rectangle that will fit both steaks side-by-side, then cut the loaf lengthways into three.
• Give the pan a wipe with kitchen paper, then place back onto a low-ish heat with the rest of the olive oil. Fry each slice of bread on both sides until crisp and browned, adding a drop more oil to the pan if necessary.
• When ready to assemble the sandwich, carve the steak into thin slices. Starting with the bottom of the loaf, build up with half the lettuce leaves, then a generous spreading of the sauce, half the tomato, then a layer of sliced steak. Top with the middle piece of bread and repeat the layers, finishing with the top of the loaf.
• Press down lightly on the sandwich and secure four times along the loaf with long wooden skewers. Using a very sharp bread knife, carefully cut between the skewers to give you 4 tall sandwiches. Serve the sandwiches with chips and any remaining sauce in a side dish.
