  1. I made this exactly as posted, and did peel the skin off my sausages so that I wouldn%u2019t have to worry about the tough skin. I don%u2019t think this really tasted like a reuben, but it was very good. A great change to an ordinary pizza! Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT7.
     
  2. What a great way to make pizza! I didn't have kielbasa so used pre-cooked crumbled italian sausage. I liked everything about this pizza and will definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT7-Switzerland.
     
  3. We loved it. I did use canned corned beef sliced into small rectangles for a more authentic reuben taste and used a bake and serve crust so the bake time was longer. Made for ZWT7.
