Try this Classic Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich on Rye for St. Patrick’s Day. That would mean you will have to make your Corned Beef earlier in the week, though, wouldn’t it? No worries. We tell you lots of ways to make it.

The Classic Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich satisfies.
Did you know that the Classic Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich doesn’t come from Ireland? People from Ireland do not traditionally eat corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick’s Day.
What will you do with all that left-over Baked Corned Beef after St. Patrick’s Day has come and gone? Make a Reuben, of course! Rye bread, cheese, corned beef, sauerkraut and Russian Dressing. Such a terrific sandwich.
We added some Colcannon and called it supper. Both the sandwich and the side dish have lots of fat, salt and calories, though, so it’s a good thing we only eat this meal once a year!
Don had a Classic Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich and I had a Halloumi Gluten Free Corned Beef Sandwich. We used a bottled Thousand Island dressing, but I highly recommend that you make your own Russian Dressing because it is super good and easy to make. I just didn’t have time to do it yesterday.
You’re gonna wanna eat this. I know I do.

We don’t have an instapot at home so we need to try and eat this food at a restaurant. My brother is coming into town soon and we want to make it a special trip. It would be fun to go to the local Irish restaurant and get some unique food.
Max, there are lots of ways to get corned beef and either make it at home or buy it ready-too-eat. You can pick up some sliced corned beef at the deli for this recipe.If you want to make your own, you can simply bake it. See the other recipes at the bottom of the page. Enjoy your time with your brother!
