Ingredients

  • 2 cups corned beef, shredded
  • 1 cup sauerkraut, drained check out our homemade sauerkraut
  • 3 tubes crescent rolls
  • 8-10 slices pepper Jack or swiss cheese
  • ½ cups thousand island dressing, Russian dressing or our homemade dressing, plus more for dipping

Sauerkraut

Instructions

  • Get out and measure all of your ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prep a baking sheet by spraying it with baking spray and set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the corned beef, sauerkraut and dressing and mix.
  • Open cans of crescent dough and separate the triangles along the perforated lines. Lay each triangle overlapping each other about ¼” in a circle on the prepped baking sheet.
  • Fold cheese in half and lay each piece, slightly overlapping each other on top of the crescent dough ring.
  • Evenly spoon the corned beef mixture onto the cheese.
  • Take the thin ends of the crescent roll and fold over the corned beef mixture.
  • Tuck it in underneath the bottom of the crescent dough. Place into the preheated oven.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until it is lightly browned.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy every bite!
  • Don't forget to dip in our Reuben Dressing.

Sauerkraut

  • In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw and the salt. In a medium sauce pan, combine the apple cider vinegar and sugar. Let simmer over medium low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add in the coleslaw mix and cover with a lid. Let cook for about 10 minutes until tender and almost clear. Stir every couple of minutes to prevent burning. Remove the lid and let cook for an additional 2 minutes so that the remaining moisture evaporates. Remove from the heat and let it come to room temperature. Express any remaining moisture before using in the reuben crescent ring.

Notes

  • You may also use canned sauerkraut if desired to save time.
  • Pepper Jack cheese - It is traditional to use Swiss cheese but Pepper Jack makes a wonderful difference in changing the flavor up.
  • Dressing - use thousand island, Russian or our homemade.
Storage: Reuben crescent ring may be stored in an airtight container or baggie in the fridge for up to 4 days.
