hillbilly reuben
I grew up walking the dirt roads of NE TN with my grandfather. We often walked a couple of miles to Mr. Tester's little one room country store in the Cracker's Neck Community where he lived. I always got a Bologna and Cheese Sandwich (just bologna, cheese and bread or cracker) and sat on the front stoop of the store to eat it. Over the years I've experimented with different ingredients for my childhood treat. This recipe for Hillbilly Reuben is just one of those variations. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

How To Make hillbilly reuben
-
1On 1 slice of plain white sandwich bread (not round top) add the cheese slice. Remove any wrapping. Once long ago I left the plastic wrapper on an American cheese slice. It made for a very tough bite, LOL.
-
2Top the cheese with the bologna. The bologna can be fried or straight from the package. Any bologna will do: thick, thin, German, garlic, pickled, beef, turkey, pork/chicken, etc. Remove any wrapping.
-
3Crush the 4 saltine squares into a small bowl, add the mayo and mustard. Stir to combine and toss in the drained but not rinsed kraut.
-
4Spread the cracker mixture over the bologna.
-
5Top the sandwich with another slice of white sandwich bread. Serve
