Classic Southern Reuben Sandwich Casserole
by Faye Thompson
Ingredients
Coat
1 Tbsp butter
Cover
1 ¼ lb sliced pumpernickel bread or rye bread
3 C diced corned beef (about 1 lb)
3 C sauerkraut well drained
4 C shredded swiss cheese (about 1lb)
1 ½ C dressing (¾ C Russian Dressing, ¾ C Duke's Mayonnaise, salt & black pepper)
Blend
10 eggs
2 ½ C whole milk
2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
Directions
Butter a 12-by-15-inch baking pan's bottom and sides. A layer of bread pieces should be placed on the dish's bottom. Add a cup of corned meat, cheese, and sauerkraut on top. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top after drizzling 1/2 cup dressing over it. Layering should be done twice more. Dijon Mustard, milk, and eggs should all be blended. Pour over the baking dish's layers. Over the top, add the final cup of cheese. Wrap in plastic and apply pressure. 1 to 24 hours should be spent cooling. For around 45 minutes (160°F), remove the cover and heat the oven to 350°F. 10 minutes should pass before serving.
History
The history of the Reuben sandwich casserole is not well documented, but it is believed to have originated in the United States in the mid-20th century. The Reuben sandwich, which is made with corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and thousand island dressing on rye bread, is said to have been created by a New York deli owner named Arnold Reuben in the 1920s.
The casserole version of the Reuben sandwich likely emerged as a way to enjoy the classic flavors of the sandwich in a more convenient, baked form. The casserole typically consists of layers of corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a creamy sauce, which are baked in a casserole dish until the cheese is melted and the flavors are well combined.
The Reuben sandwich casserole has become a popular comfort food in the United States and is often served at family gatherings, potluck dinners, and other events. It is also a popular choice for weeknight dinners and Sunday brunches, as it is easy to prepare and can be made ahead of time.
