The Owl Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 The King of Sandwiches IMO, nothing better than the combination of Beef on Rye Bread, with Swiss Cheese, Sauerkraut, and Russian Dressing... Show your love for this magnificent creation.. I added the poll because there are two different methods of cured Brisket to place as the meat.... Which do you like better? Corned Beef, or Pastrami.. Not a real big fan of corned beef, but give me a good stack of pastrami anyday...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdFireYYZ Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I love both, but corned beef gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 of the 7 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I've actually never heard of making it with pastrami, but I bet it'd be good. For now, I voted for corned beef. I've had a turkey reuben before, and as weird as it sounds, it was tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 I know Pastrami and Corned beef are both form of cured Brisket, but I don't really know what is the difference in making either..... I know I love Pastrami, but I really do not care for corned beef. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tick Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I'll eat it either way but Corned beef for me. Reuben's totaaly rock! I love my pastrami on rye with swiss cheese some onion and a nice spicy mustard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReflectedLight Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 i like both corned beef and pastrami reubens. this diner i ordered a reuben once from, the sandwich was great but they never put on or gave me russian dressing. i was sitting there and knew something was missing right away.

tangy Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 QUOTE (The Owl @ Apr 6 2011, 01:41 AM) I know Pastrami and Corned beef are both form of cured Brisket, but I don't really know what is the difference in making either..... I know I love Pastrami, but I really do not care for corned beef. sometimes pastrami is made from cuts other than the brisket. its an old recipe and one that works on all meats, seems like i read that it was originally used on camels. mmmmm . i made pastrami once with a turkey breast. pastrami is a rub with salt, black pepper, garlic, coriander and mustard seeds if i recall correctly. can refer to my book if anyone needs specifics. corned beef is cured in salt and sodium nitrate. unfortunately that shit is bad for you but that what turns the corned beef pink. turkey reubens are killer and i have had fantastic tempeh reubens before too. one of my favorite sandwiches of all time.

Tarkus406 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I would love reubens if it werent for two things. I do not like the taste of Rye bread. And the kraut. I went with pastrami because I love that shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I love Reubens! Probably my very favorite sandwich of all time. Corned beef - but it has to be good quality corned beef (not overly fatty) and sliced very thinly. Nothing's more annoying than trying to take a bite of a sandwich and having half the meat slide out because your teeth can't quite cut through that bite.
