Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Secret Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, and a pinch of paprika. Mix until smooth and set aside.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On two slices of rye bread, layer the smoked brisket, swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and homemade sweet + spicy pickles.

  3. 3

    Add the Sauce

    Spread a generous amount of Daddy Mac's secret sauce on the other two slices of rye bread.

  4. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve immediately with extra pickles on the side.
