ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups sauerkraut, drained
¹⁄₂ cup sweet red pepper relish
2 scallions, chopped
8 slices pumpernickel bread (or marble rye)
spicy brown mustard
¹⁄₂ lb thinly sliced swiss cheese
1 ¹⁄₂ lbs turkey pastrami, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter, cut into pats
4 dill pickles (or half-sour pickles)
flavored gourmet chips (Terra Blue potato chips or Cape Cod Firecracker Barbecue chips)

directions

Combine the first 3 ingredients; set aside.
Place 4 bread slices on a work surface; spread with mustard.
Build sandwiches: layer on a couple of Swiss cheese slices, a pile of turkey pastrami, a mound of sauerkraut mixture, and more cheese.
Spread tops with mustard and set into place.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add in a couple pats of butter.
When the butter melts, add sandwiches (may have to do in batches); place a heavy pot lid or pot into the skillet to help press sandwiches as they grill.
Grill sandwiches 3-4 minutes per side; serve with pickles and chips.
