Corned beef sandwiches are a delicious and versatile meal option. Here are some creative recipes to elevate your corned beef sandwich experience.
Step 1 involves buttering one side of each slice of rye bread, then spreading mustard and relish on the unbuttered sides. Top with corned beef and sauerkraut, finishing with the remaining bread slices. This classic approach offers a perfect balance of flavors.
For those who prefer their corned beef baked, preheat your oven to 325°F. Place the corned beef brisket fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. If it comes with a seasoning packet, rub it on the fat. Add a cup of water to the pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil. This method enhances the meat’s flavor and tenderness.
Another variation uses lean corned beef combined with tangy sauerkraut and crunchy wheat bread. The sandwich gets additional flavor from margarine, mayo, mustard, and freshly ground black pepper. Serving it warm maximizes the taste.

For a griddle approach, spread around 2 tablespoons of dressing on 20 bread slices. Add corned beef and top with the remaining bread. Toast the sandwiches until golden brown and the cheese melts, serving with dressing if desired.
