You wouldn't think that the open-face preparation would make that much of a difference, but without the second slice of bread, you get a layer of bubbly, browned melted cheese. It's also less greasy than the typical restaurant Reuben, and the home-made dressing is miles better. My sauerkraut was very dry, so I didn't drain or rinse it-- I skipped all the packet business and just made the whole thing in the toaster oven. I used less meat and sauerkraut than the recipe called for, but put it all on home-made rye bread. My husband always orders Reubens at delis or diners-- he said "This is way better than those-- honey, I didn't know you could make such a good Reuben". (And we live in a big city with lots of great delis!)
