FAQs
1. What kind of meat is in the Grilled Reuben Melt?
It is made with corned beef. This is beef that has been cured in seasoned salt water and slow-cooked before being sliced for the sandwich.
2. Can I change the cheese on the Reuben Melt?
Yes. It normally comes with Swiss cheese, but you can ask for a different cheese like American or Cheddar. This may change the traditional Reuben taste.
3. How is this different from the Turkey Reuben?
The difference is the meat. The Grilled Reuben Melt uses corned beef, while the Turkey Reuben uses sliced turkey breast when it is available.
4. Is the rye bread toasted?
Yes. The rye bread is buttered and toasted on the grill so it becomes crispy and supports the fillings.
5. Why does the Reuben Melt have so much sodium?
The sandwich has high sodium because corned beef and sauerkraut both contain a lot of salt. The Reuben Melt alone has about 1840 mg of sodium.
