- Top with other four pieces of bread, butter side out.
- Place each sandwich in pan and grill until golden brown and cheese begins to melt...about 4 minutes. Flip over and brown other side another 3-4 minutes, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn.

Storage Instructions
Store leftovers wrapped in the refrigerator up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through and crisp.
Freezing is not recommended once assembled, though the corned beef can be frozen separately up to 2 months. Assemble sandwiches fresh for best texture.
You can prep ingredients ahead by draining sauerkraut and slicing cheese, then assemble and grill when ready.
