1
Cook the Knockwurst
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the knockwurst for about 5-7 minutes until heated through and browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2
Caramelize the Onions
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and sliced onions. Cook over low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.

3
Assemble the Sandwich
Butter one side of each slice of rye bread. On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer pastrami, Swiss cheese, cooked knockwurst (sliced), and caramelized onions. Top with the other two slices of bread, buttered side up.

4
Grill the Sandwich
In the same skillet, grill the sandwiches over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Press down gently with a spatula for even grilling.
