WELCOME

Welcome to this slow cooker/crockpot blog. I believe slow cookers are the best thing to happen to modern day cooks. I used mine often when I worked outside the home and continue to do so even in retirement. It is so nice to put food on and forget about it. Slow cookers also allow us to cook many things we would normally have to use the oven for; what a relief in hot Texas weather! Some of these recipes are mine, many are ones I have collected over the years.

REUBEN SANDWICHES

1 (2 to 3 lb) corned beef brisket with spice packet

1 can or jar (14-16 oz) sauerkraut, drained

1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing

16 slices rye bread, toasted

8 slices Swiss cheese

Additional Thousand Island salad dressing

Trim fat from corned beef brisket. If necessary, cut corned beef brisket to fit in a 3 1/2 or 4-quart slow cooker. Place brisket in the cooker. Sprinkle spices from packet evenly over brisket, rub in with your fingers. Add sauerkraut and drizzle the 1/2 cup of salad dressing over all.

Cover cooker and cook on low 8 to 10 hours or on high 4 to 5 hours.

Transfer brisket to a cutting board. Thinly slice brisket against the grain. Return sliced brisket to cooker and stir to combine with cooking liquid. Using a slotted spoon, spoon corned beef mixture onto half of the toasted bread slices and top with cheese. If desired, drizzle with additional salad dressing. Top with the remaining bread 

Yield: 8 servings
