  • This pastrami reuben sandwich was one of the best griddle sandwich recipes that we’ve ever made - and the secret is the homemade smoked pastrami! After eating a pastrami sandwich at the famous Katz’s Deli in NYC, we can honestly say that our homemade pastrami was every bit as good as theirs! So when you start with fantastic ingredients, like your own smoked pastrami, you’re guaranteed to get a fantastic griddle sandwich!
    I’ll show you how I like to build my reuben sandwich, and I’ll give you a few tips for making the best pastrami reuben ever - like slow “frying” the bread for the perfect toast and letting some of your Swiss cheese hang off the edge for a delicious “cheese skirt” and added texture. This homemade pastrami reuben was absolutely delicious! Enjoy!
    *The smoked pastrami recipe will be coming soon to pelletsandpits.com/ - or look for the Smoked Pastrami video on our Pellets and Pits UA-cam channel!

    It is truly amazing how great homemade brined brisket is vs. the garbage you purchase at the store. I've done the corned beef many times and it always blows me away at how fresh the corned beef tastes. But I've never smoked it, so I'm going to check out your method on pellets and pits to see how you did it. Thanks guys! Looks crazy delicious!!

    Now that's a magnificent looking sandwich. I normally just make pastrami on rye with mustard and Swiss, but I'll go for a Rueben occasionally. That Rueben looked like perfection. You definitely nailed the secret of a good pastrami or Rueben; the pastrami has to be heated to soften that fat before it goes on the sandwich. I've done them where I steamed the pastrami and also heated it in a pan. Also using that fatty pastrami helps make it juicier and taste better. That's the way to do pastrami.

    I find it hard to plan a cook 2 weeks ahead of time but have always wanted to smoke some pastrami. I also prefer regular swiss over Baby Swiss (even though I grew up about 10 minutes from where it was invented). If you're ever in the Cleveland area try Slyman's. Another "makes me hungry" video, great work.

    It's not everyday that you have the time to do all that work for a sandwich and put everything together. Unless you make a lot of corned beef and pastrami or use cold cuts and heat them up. I won't use all the sour kraut usually, so I get the Cleveland (whatever it's called that Walmart carries) in a little bag, it's a little too flavorful but works. Slymann's in Cleveland has a pretty famous sandwich shop. Their rubens are famous in the area but like you said you can do just as well or even better at home.

    You should never grill pastrami; takes away all the fatty juice and leaves it rubbery instead of soft. You should put a cooling rack on your grill and squirt some water so it steams with the pastrami on top of the cooking rack then immediately put a steaming dome to lock in the steam, it usually takes 5 minutes of steaming
