Reuben Sliders

Reuben Sliders

I recently had mini Reuben Sliders at a local restaurant that I LOVED. They were small and tasty–perfect for a light meal, and I couldn’t wait to make them at home. I decided to cook them dry (without butter) to keep them a bit healthier, and I loved these little sandwiches. These Reuben sliders were easy to make, tasted delicious, and paired nicely with some potato salad and coleslaw.

Reuben Sliders

Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1-2 tsp sweet pickle relish, to taste
  • 4 slices of cocktail rye bread
  • 2 slices of pastrami
  • 2 tbsp sauerkraut, well-drained
  • 1 slice of Swiss cheese, halved

How to Make Reuben Sliders:

Prepare the sauce by combining the mayonnaise, ketchup, and sweet pickle relish in a small bowl. Mix well.

Make the sliders by spreading a bit of the sauce on each slice of cocktail rye bread.

Layer one slice of bread with some pastrami, then add a bit of sauerkraut, then top with Swiss cheese and the other slice of bread.

Cook the sliders by heating a large skillet over medium heat, then add the sandwiches. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until crisp and golden brown, then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Serve immediately. Enjoy!

  1. Reuben sandwiches have been on my "list" for a while. Yours look & sound great!

  2. That's so funny, I was just looking at a place that had Reuben sliders on the menu and thought for sure that's what I would get if I went there! Will have to try these out, thanks so much 🙂

  3. Ideal for a quick meal they look delicious.
    Congratulations Jesse. Diane

  4. It has been a while since I've had a reuben and I do love them!!!! I love the idea of a slider!

  5. Isn't that ketchup mixture just good old Thousand Island dressing? I know that's what I've always used…

  6. So happy (and slightly jealous lol) for the winner of the apron! The sliders look so good!

  7. Ruben sliders…love it!! Would have never thought to do this. 🙂
    Congratulations to Vickie!!

  8. I've passed those little loaves of tea breads a kazillion times in the bakery aisle! Why haven't I thought of little slider sandwiches! I love Reubens … what a great party idea! Thanks for this brilliant idea!

  9. These look fantastic Pam, and I like that they aren't greasy. Sometimes a grilled sandwich can be too greasy and that's a turn-off for me.

  10. Those look really good.. I wonder if that is the sandwich George Costanza took to bed with him? LOL where did that come from! lol Keep it up Pam. Love love love your blog!

  11. oh wow – these reubens look wonderful! We'll have to try them – we named our pup after the sandwich after all!!

  12. Oooh! Yummy sliders! Great adaptations to make them a bit healthier as well without sacrificing great taste. Thanks for sharing and for hosting that awesome giveaway 🙂

  13. I have eaten many sandwiches in my life but never a reuben! Love that you made them in slider form!

  14. Congratulations to Jessie! Pam, these sliders look mouthwatering! Right up my alley for appetizers for a lazy backyard BBQ… Thanks for sharing! 🙂

  15. These are just WAY too cute! I'm going to visit my parents in a few weeks and will have to make these for them–my husband will snub them, being the picky eater that he is! (HIS loss!!!)
