My mom loves a good Rueben Sandwich.  She has been asking me to find a place here in Houston that serves one.  We tried a few but she wasn't impressed.  A few weeks ago she came in for a visit, I decided to try my hand at making her one.
I've only eaten a Rueben maybe once or twice, so I'm no expert as to what a Rueben Sandwich should taste like.  I did some research to see how the sandwiches are typically prepared.  I decided to create my own recipe.
