Butter the outside of each slice of bread then place two slices, buttered side down, on a large hot skillet set over medium heat.
4 slices rye bread, 2 tbsp butter
Spread a generous amount of dressing onto the inside of both slices of bread, then add half the corned beef to each, followed by the sauerkraut.
1/2 lb thinly sliced corned beef brisket, Russian dressing, 3/4 - 1 cup sauerkraut
Add more dressing to the top of the sauerkraut, then top each sandwich with two slices of Swiss cheese.
4 slices Swiss cheese
Spread the inside of the two remaining slices of buttered bread with a thin layer of dressing, then add them to the sandwiches to close- buttered side up.
Using two spatulas, carefully flip the sandwiches keeping the filling in tact. Cover and cook another 2-3 minutes, just until crispy on the outside and the cheese has melted.
Serve the sandwiches warm, and enjoy!
