Pile on corned beef, start a Reuben tradition

How in the one month when corned beef is king can we make the sandwich of the month anything other than the Reuben?

We can’t.

If you’re roasting corned beef, you’re bound to have leftovers. Simply pile it high on pumpernickel bread spread with Thousand Island or Russian dressing, combine with Swiss cheese and sauerkraut before putting on the griddle and toasting until the cheese is bubbly. Lunch is set for the week.

In this related story, local chef Sean Cummings says corned beef is not eaten in Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day, or any other. And he should know; that’s his heritage.

However, the tradition of eating corned beef on St. Pat’s Day does come from the Irish — those who lived in New York City.

Unable to find their beloved Irish bacon, the New Yorkers borrowed more affordable corned beef as a substitute from their Jewish neighbors.
