THE ULTIMATE SALAMI BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the ground beef and pork in a large bowl and douse with the wine. Grate 3 to 4 tablespoons onion directly into the bowl to catch the juices. Add the oregano, garlic, chile, cheese, 1 tablespoon pepper and a drizzle of EVOO. Mix until just combined. Shape into 4 large patties or 12 small patties for sliders. Make an indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly and prevent them from puffing up. Sprinkle with a little salt.
• Arrange the salami slices on a rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until they crisp up a bit, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• Heat a heavy griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes for regular ones and 6 minutes for sliders. Top with the provolone and cook until melted.
• Spread some of the giardiniera relish on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with the patties. Top with the salami and some Quick Marinara Sauce. Cover with the top halves of the rolls.
• Heat the EVOO in a small pot over medium to medium-high heat. Add the garlic, chile and onion and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, oregano, basil and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat until thickened.

PASTRAMI RUEBEN AKA "THE RACHEL"

Steps:

• For the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, sour cream, horseradish, lemon juice, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, smoked paprika, dill pickles and shallots in a food processor until thoroughly mixed. Do not over blend, you still want to see some texture. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside or refrigerate in a covered jar until serving time.
• For the sandwich build: Combine half of the dressing with the sauerkraut and toss. Place 1 slice of cheese on a piece of bread. Pile the meat high on the cheese, top with an additional slice of cheese, some of the sauerkraut mixture and the second piece of bread. Butter the outsides of the sandwich. Heat a heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet or griddle pan over medium-low heat. Add the sandwiches, cover with a heatproof bowl and griddle until golden and gooey in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, cover and let cook until golden all around, another 3 minutes. Serve the extra dressing on the side.
• Cook's Note: I love getting a whole piece of pastrami, uncut, from Fumare's in Chicago. If you have a favorite deli, try getting a whole piece and cutting it yourself; the meat will stay nice and tender and you can mix the bark from the end cut with the meatier middle. You'll fall in love with pastrami all over again.

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.
