Reuben Sandwich.

The Reuben sandwich is normally made using rye bread, corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Thousand Island salad dressing. Sandwich could also be used as an option. According to Recipe Wiki the history of the Reuben Sandwich is:

Reportedly originally named for its creator, Arthur Reuben (owner of New York's once-famous and now-defunctReuben's delicatessen), this sandwich is made with generous layers of corned beef, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut on sourdough rye bread. Reuben is said to have created the original version (which was reportedly made with ham) for Annette Seelos, the leading lady in a Charlie Chaplin film being shot in 1914. Another version of this famous sandwich's origin is that an Omaha wholesale grocer (Reuben Kay) invented it during a poker game in 1955. It gained national prominence when one of his poker partner's employees entered the recipe in a national sandwich contest the following year and won. The Reuben sandwich can be served either cold or grilled.

Recipe

Heat a grill pan, or skillet, while preparing the sandwiches. Spread soft butter on bread slices. Layer the corned beef, sauerkraut, cheese and spread Thousand Island dressing on the top bread slice. Sandwich bread together. Grill using the preheated pan. Serve warm.

The sandwich can also be served cold, if desired.
