📝 Preparation Steps
1
Dressing: Whisk all of the ingredients together in a medium bowl until smooth. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste (I like more of each); set aside.
2
Homemade Corned Beef, if using: Can be sliced or shredded. Microwave just to warm through with jus (or gently heat on the stovetop) and cover with foil to keep warm. Drain excess liquid before using.
3
Spread parchment paper out on a flat surface. Spread ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread. Flip all the pieces over and spread the other side of each slice of bread with Russian dressing.

4
To four bread slices (the other slices are the tops), layer over the Russian dressing in this order: corned beef, drained sauerkraut and two slices of Swiss cheese. Top with the other 4 slices of bread, buttered side up/on the outside.
Swiss cheese, (preferably Swiss Gruyere)8 slices
5
Melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1-2 sandwiches (whatever comfortably fits), cover, and cook until the bread is golden on the bottom and the cheese is starting to melt, about ⏱️ 3-4 minutes.

6
Flip the sandwich(es) over and continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the bottom bread is toasted, another ⏱️ 3-4 minutes. (Reduce the heat as needed if the bread is browning too quickly before the cheese is melted). Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
