Recipe: Grilled Hot Dog Reubens (A very different Reuben)

GRILLED HOT DOG REUBENS

6 hot dogs
4 slices rye bread (seeded type)
1/2 cup Thousand island salad dressing or Russian Dressing (or as needed)
6 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 cup sauerkraut, well drained (as needed)
4 dill pickle spears

FOR EACH SANDWICH:
Grill three hot dogs over a char grill and slice.

Spread Russian dressing on your bread slices and add Swiss cheese. Follow the cheese with sauerkraut and then place on your freshly grilled hot dog slices. (Be sure and drain your sour kraut before you spreading onto the sandwich so that the bread stays dry.) Add another slice of cheese to make sure the hot dogs stay glued to the sour kraut. Sliced pickles will add an extra flair to the typical Reuben.

Wrap your sandwich in foil and place over the grill until the bread toasts and the cheese melts.

Crown with another pickle once the sandwich is nicely toasted.
