Next place sauerkraut on top of cheese and then spoon thousand island dressing on top.

Notes

✱ Nikki's Tips

Be sure to drain sauerkraut in a mesh strainer and then squeeze dry really well with a paper towel or cheese cloth. This will keep the sandwiches from getting soggy.

Use a sharp serrated bread knife to cut the rolls in half. This will help to cut them more evenly and keep the bread from crumbling.
Use up leftover corned beef or have your deli slice it for you for convenience.
Using sliced cheese works well for covering and melting. Don't get the slices overly thick or they take longer to melt. You want the cheese to melt before the top is overly brown. Covering for partial bake time also helps with this.
Cut using the rolls as a guideline. A cut and serve turner works nicely or a sharp knife.
Keep sliders together until ready to serve and then cut. This helps retain the heat longer so they will be warm when serving.
