Ingredients
  

For the Russian Dressing
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup garlic chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp. sour cream
  • 1 tsp. Smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp. ketchup
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp. parsley
  • 1 tbsp. sweet onion minced
  • 1 tbsp. dill pickle, and 1/2 tsp. dp juice
  • 1 tsp. prepared horseradish
  • 1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
For the Sandwich
  • 1 pkg Smoked Meat Pastrami or Corned Beef Beef Your Choice
  • 1 pkg. sliced Swiss cheese
  • Russian Dressing that we made
  • Coleslaw
  • Rye Bread

Method
 

  1. For the Russian Dressing: Blend all of the ingredients well and set aside.
    For the Coleslaw: I like to shred a bit of cabbage, and carrot. Chop a bit of fresh parsley. Add it all to a bowl and add a tiny bit of vinegar, honey, coleslaw spice salt and pepper.
    Assembling the Sandwich:
    Take two slices of our Rye Bread and butter them up. Place them onto a medium high skillet. 
    Add Russian Dressing to the bottom of the bread.
    Add our delicious steamed meat. I like to add a spoonful of the Russian dressing to the meat also because it tastes so damn good.
    Add on some freshly made coleslaw and a slice of Swiss Cheese.
    Put the other piece of butter Rye bread on top and grill until golden and the cheese has melted.
    Serve with a dill pickle, hot peppers and some kettle baked chips! Wow
