Method:

  1. To make the dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Preheat a cast iron skillet, hotplate or sandwich press to medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of bread (the outside) and spread the dressing on the other side. Place bread butter-side down. Top the dressing side of one slice of bread with sauerkraut, beef, cheese and Riviana Sandwich Stackers. Close the sandwich with the butter-side out.
  3. Turn the heat to low and cook for 4 – 5 minutes, pressing down regularly, then flip the sandwich over and cook the other side until cheese is melted and the sandwich is golden on the outside. Serve immediately with potato chips, extra pickles and sauerkraut.
