1
Prepare the Bread
Start by laying out the rye bread slices on a clean surface.
2
Add Mustard
Spread 1 tablespoon of yellow mustard on one side of each slice of rye bread.
3
Layer Pastrami
On two of the slices (mustard side up), layer the pastrami evenly, distributing the 8 oz across both slices.
4
Add Cheese
Place 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the pastrami on each sandwich.
5
Add Pickles
Place 2 slices of pickles on top of the cheese on each sandwich.
6
Top with Bread
Cover each sandwich with the remaining rye bread slices, mustard side down.
7
Butter the Outside
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the outer side of each sandwich.
8
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwiches in the skillet. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
9
Serve the Sandwich
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
