Description
Crockpot Reuben Dip brings the iconic Reuben sandwich flavors—savory corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, creamy dressing, and melty Swiss cheese—into a warm, gooey slow cooker dip. Perfect for parties, potlucks, and holidays, this cheesy dip is easy, hands-off, and absolutely irresistible when served with toasted rye bread or crackers.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
- 1 cup chopped corned beef (deli-style or leftover)
- 1 cup sauerkraut, drained and squeezed dry
- ½ cup Thousand Island dressing (or Russian dressing)
Optional Toppings: Fresh parsley, extra shredded cheese for broiling.
Variations: Substitute pastrami for corned beef, add horseradish for heat, or swap dressing for a tangier twist.
Instructions
- Prep Ingredients: Chop corned beef and drain sauerkraut well to remove excess moisture.
- Mix: In a bowl, combine cream cheese, Swiss cheese, corned beef, sauerkraut, and dressing until fully blended.
- Cook: Transfer to a slow cooker, cover, and cook on low for 2–3 hours, stirring occasionally until hot and melted.
- Optional Broil: Transfer to an oven-safe dish, top with cheese, and broil 2–3 minutes for a golden crust.
- Serve: Garnish with parsley and serve hot with rye bread slices, crackers, or veggies.
Notes
- Drain sauerkraut well: Excess liquid will make the dip watery.
- Use full-fat cream cheese: For the richest, creamiest result.
- Grate your own Swiss cheese: It melts better than pre-shredded.
- Stir occasionally: Prevents burning around the edges in the crockpot.
- Storage: Refrigerate up to 3–4 days. Reheat in microwave or crockpot; do not freeze.
