New Yorkers say my Reubens taste like those served in the famous delis there. For a little less kick, you can leave out the horseradish. —Patricia Kile, Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania

Ingredients

  • 4 teaspoons prepared mustard
  • 8 slices rye bread
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1 pound thinly sliced deli corned beef
  • 1 can (8 ounces) sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. Spread mustard over 4 slices of bread. Layer with cheese, corned beef and sauerkraut. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, relish and horseradish; spread over remaining bread. Place over sauerkraut. Spread outsides of sandwiches with butter.
