Creamy Hot Reuben Sandwich Party Dip

With all the Holiday parties and football in the next few months it’s crucial to have some party food ready for your guests to nibble on.

Well if you’re a fan of Reuben Sandwiches, then you’ll love this Creamy Hot Reuben Sandwich Party Dip, and so will your guests!

It has all the elements of a tasty Reuben Sandwich in one hot ready-to-party dip.

You and and your party dwellers will have a hard time focusing on the main event with this dip lingering on the counter top. It’s like a tractor beam of taste-bud explosions. {what?}

I actually made this fun recipe two years ago for a recipe contest. It was a video submission, {hopefully it got lost somewhere out there in the internet} but I failed big time in sharing the recipe with you guys.

I wont go into too many details, but let’s just say I didn’t win. But I’m pretty sure it had to do with my lack of video skills and not the recipe, cause this one’s a winner. {basically me in front of a camera = not coordinated and super sweaty palms}

Reuben Sandwiches can be made with either Pastrami or Corned Beef. I prefer the Pastrami, so that’s what I went with for this recipe, but feel free to switch it up if you want. I just love the peppery taste of Pastrami.

You can find these cute loafs of Cocktail Pumpernickel Bread in the bakery section of your grocery store.

Just lay them out on a baking sheet, brush with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Then bake them till they crisp up.

While the bread is in the oven, throw together your ingredients in a large bowl and mix them to combine.

Then pour the mixture into an oven safe dish {or cast iron skillet},  and spread it out to an even layer.

Toss it into a hot oven for 10 minutes, stir and cook an additional 10 minutes or until it’s bubbly all over.

Set it out and just try to not bury your face in it.

Yeah, it’s that good. {plus it’s really hot, so that might hurt a bit}

Reuben Sandwiches are probably one of my all time favorite sandwiches. I love the way all the flavors blend together, from the peppery pastrami to the vinegar-tasting sauerkraut and all the way to the creaminess of the thousand island dressing. It’s just one of those unique flavor combinations that melds so perfectly together.

Just try keeping your hands off of this one.

I dare you!
