We don’t do much for St. Patrick’s Day other than wearing green so we donโ€™t get pinched, and making corned beef and cabbage (which, btw, I would make all.the.time if the stores carried whole corned beef the other 11 months of the year.) The days that follow though? They’re the best and all about leftover corned beef, which I put to great use in Reuben sandwiches and these Reuben sliders.

My local grocery store always has pretzel rolls and I’ve been trying to figure out a delicious way to use them. I swapped out the usual slider buns and these Reuben Pretzel Sliders were born. Theyโ€™re perfect! Great for St. Patricks Day, game day, or any lunch or weeknight dinner throughout the year with deli corned beef if you don’t have leftovers. So easy and incredibly delish!

Notes

The cabbage can easily be replaced with sauerkraut, but use about half the amount and make sure you ring out all the liquid or the sliders could get soggy.

Serving Suggestions

When serving for lunch or dinner, these pair great with a side of potato chips, dill pickle spears, air fryer onion rings, coleslaw, or a small bowl of corn chowder. As an appetizer for game day, serve with other apps like corn dip, ham pickle roll ups, or fried pickles.

Storing Leftovers

  • Fridge.ย These sliders are best enjoyed hot and fresh, but you can store leftovers for a bit. Store leftovers in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in foil in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat.ย I recommend reheating the sliders in the oven at 350ยฐF oven for about 10 minutes to crisp the bun up as much as possible, but loosely tent with foil so they don’t over-brown. Reheating in the microwave is going to lead to a soggier bun.

    I have never heard of a pretzel roll. They’ve got to be very good, and I’m intrigued by the sauce.

    Gosh, do I love March. It’s the perfect excuse to consume corned beef in any and all ways possible. And these sliders? Perfection! The pretzel bun is the perfect compliment here!

      These were yummy!! I used sauerkraut rather then cabbage.

        I did half and half – some with sauerkraut and some with cabbage since my husband doesn’t like sauerkraut. They were both yuuuummm!
