Sandwich Components

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients. If the coleslaw is not prepared, make it by combining shredded cabbage, carrots, mayonnaise, vinegar, and seasonings in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread 1 tablespoon of Russian dressing on one side of each slice of rye bread.

  3. 3

    Layer the Pastrami

    On two slices of bread, layer the pastrami evenly over the dressing.

  4. 4

    Add Coleslaw

    Top the pastrami with 1/2 cup of coleslaw on each sandwich.

  5. 5

    Finish Assembly

    Top each sandwich with the other slices of rye bread, dressing side down.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the bread is golden brown and the pastrami is heated through.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Once grilled, remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately.
