Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and slice the rye bread if not pre-sliced.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On four slices of rye bread, layer the house-made pastrami, Muenster cheese, sauerkraut, and a generous spoonful of River House dressing. Top each with another slice of rye bread.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwiches

    In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more butter to the skillet as needed.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwiches from the skillet, cut in half, and serve with additional River House dressing on the side for dipping.
