REUBENS AND RACHELS

Oh and lets not forget the humble runner up , the hot pastrami on dark pumpernickel rye !!

I had been looking around the area trying to find pastrami for making a reuben, but until now I couldn't find any to save my life, until today. I was up in Mechanicsburg having lunch with some old friends and realized I was about 1 or 2 miles from a Trader Joe's store. I had been by that store repeatedly but had never stopped in because I was always on my way to somewhere else where I had to be. But today after lunch I decided I was going to go in as I had heard about Trader Joe's for years. I started to cruise up and down the aisles I came to the sliced meat rack, and there it was, half-pound packages of sliced pastrami. Time to fire up the stove and see how my gastronomical talents work out.
 
Take cream cheese, corned beef, sauerbraten and Swiss cheese, put it in a food processor. Blend until you have a paste. Plop as much as you need in a skillet or Corning ware dish. Put it in the oven, as high as yours will go. 15 minutes later, turn on the broiler. 5 more minutes, serve with Rye crisps, crackers or whatever you like. A nice porter or stout would also accompany it nicely!
