reuben
word
Definition
A Reuben is a type of hot sandwich made with corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian or Thousand Island dressing, typically grilled on rye bread.
Usage & Nuances
"Reuben" almost always refers to the sandwich in American contexts. It is a classic deli order and not commonly homemade. The main ingredients and grilled preparation are essential; a sandwich missing sauerkraut or the dressing would not be called a Reuben.
