I shared a blog post earlier in the week on 15 Pie Iron recipes. You can find it here. Silly me forgot to include our families favorite pie iron recipe – a Reuben sandwich. This week we had a bonfire and I made one so that I could share with you. They are delicious if you like Reuben’s.
Here is what you need to make a Reuben sandwich:
- Bread (we prefer rye or pumpernickel but we only had white)
- Corned beef
- Shredded Swiss cheese
- Sauerkraut
- Thousand Island Dressing
- Spray butter
- non stick spray
- Hobo pie irons
First you need to get your pie iron ready. You can buy a pie iron here (affiliate link):
Spray your pie iron with your non stick spray. We find that if you skip this step the bread sticks, which can cause a lot of frustration.
Once your iron is sprayed You will want to spray two pieces of bread with a spray butter.
Place the bread butter side down into the iron.
Put a piece or two of meat onto each side of the bread.
Add a couple teaspoons of sauerkraut. Let the juice drain a little before putting it on top of your meat. It will make your bread soggy if you don’t drain it.
I then add a a tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing and @ 1/4 cup of shredded Swiss cheese.
Carefully close your pie iron. Place on hot coals and cook until golden brown.
Enjoy!!
