Crock Pot Reuben dip
This recipe fits a standard 4-5 quart Crock Pot. Adjust up or down depending on the size of your pot.
Ingredients:
16 ounces cream cheese, softened is easier if baking, i use hard because i'm using a Crock Pot, it'll melt with time
16 ounces deli corned beef coarsely chopped, more if you want it meatier. Save some time, lightly food process it if you want. Just not too much, this isn't a Pate
16 Ounces Swiss cheese, shredded melts quicker but you can use you favorite brick cheese as well
1 cup sauerkraut drained well, drain less if you like more "sour"
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing
Palm some caraway seeds in there if you like them. I add them to help get the "Rye Bread" effect without the Rye bread
You can bake this but i'm a high speed, low drag kinda guy so i like the Crock Pot Method. Doesn't get any simpler to make.
Just dump all ingredients into a slow cooker, heat on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8 hours. Make sure to stir regularly. You can add or subtract any ingredient to make it thicker/soupier or to get to your preferred taste. I tend to lean on the Swiss Cheese and Sauerkraut more than called for but that's up to your tastes. I like to cook this at least day before and reheat. This is one of those things that's better if cooled and heat once before consuming. Heat and serve. I like using Frito Scoops but Cocktail Ryes, Triscuit crackers or Stacys Pita chips are excellent choices as well.
Watch this stuff fly out of the bowl at your event. It's almost always the first thing gone at mine. They'll be scraping the bowl
If you like a traditional Corned Beef Reuben, you'll love this dip.

Good recipe. Would you like to post this in the NT Cookbook too? We can add it to the group Recipe Article Index where it can be found long after it gets pushed off the FP. (smile)
Sure, how do i do that?

Put a comment up but I think i’m already there. It’s my Sea Anemone (Nemo) pic I took in Truk
Ok Sparty....I can see it there now. Thanks!
Except for the sauerkraut (can't stand it), it sounds delicious. I only have a mini crock pot but will give it a shot.
Yeah it'll still be good if you like all the other stuff.
I love corned beef on rye, so your recipe looks really good.
Same here. Love it on Jewish Rye bread.
Hmmm. Sounds really good. I'll have to try it. But if I don't bring my usual chile relleno casserole, I'll get kicked out of the party.
Maybe I'll just bring both!
That sounds good too! Would you like to share that with us in the NT Cookbook?
I keep meaning to get the recipe and post it! I'll try to do that soon.
I was thinking that toasting rye bread and using that instead of frito scoops would be awesome.
Ever had a Cocktail Rye? It's usually near the deli section. Little slider size, square, rye bread slices. Works great toasted or not with this dip. Makes little Reuben sliders but i warn you. If you use that, prepare a lot more dip. From my experience it will go REALLY fast using the cocktail rye. Everyone will be making "stacked" reuben sliders.
Good to know! Maybe I will just make sure there are no plates, so they can't make sliders.
I use those to make itty bitty pastrami sandwiches.
Yeah my mom used to make these little things she called hanky pankies on those A mixer of hamburger and Italian sausage baked on top. Think there was some cheese in there as well but not sure what it was.
They were excellent little horsdoeuvres
Dear Sister Raven Wing: Some opine that Jewish Rye bread is circumsized Pumpernickel.
