Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 4 buns Rye hamburger buns
- 0.5 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 4 slices Dill pickles (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties, about ¾ inch thick.
Place the patties on the hot skillet or grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side. Flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes. During the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty to melt.
While the patties are cooking, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the sauerkraut and sauté for 2-3 minutes until warmed through. Set aside.
Split the rye hamburger buns and toast them lightly in a toaster or on the skillet until golden brown.
To assemble, spread 1-2 tablespoons of Thousand Island dressing on the bottom half of each bun. Place a cheesy burger patty on top, followed by a generous spoonful of sautéed sauerkraut. Add a dill pickle slice if desired, then place the top bun on.
Serve the Reuben burgers hot with a side of fries, chips, or a simple salad. Enjoy!
