  • 2 tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. coarse black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. onion powder
  • 2 tsp. hickory liquid smoke
  • 4 cups chopped cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup shredded white onion
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 tsp. dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp. creamed horseradish
  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
  • couple grinds of coarse black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. poppy seeds

  • 4 tbsp. butter for browning bread
  • 12 marble rye slices

Instructions

  • Mix the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Cover the corned beef with the rub, then wrap it in aluminum foil tightly.
  • Place the wrapped corned beef in the slow cooker without adding water. Cover with the lid.
  • Cook on LOW for 7-8 hours without opening the lid.
  • After cooking, remove the corned beef (keep it wrapped in foil), and let it rest for about 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the coleslaw dressing by mixing together all the dressing ingredients in a bowl. Toss as needed to keep it crisp.
  • Make the Russian dressing by stirring all its ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Open the foil and discard the juices from the corned beef.
  • Slice the rested corned beef and get ready to assemble your sandwiches.
  • Butter the marble rye slices and brown them in a skillet until golden.
  • Spread Russian dressing on the bottom of each slice of rye bread.
  • Layer the corned beef, followed by the Swiss cheese and coleslaw on top.
  • Close the sandwich with another slice of marble rye, securing with toothpicks if desired, and cut in half.
  • Serve and enjoy your creation!

Notes

The cook time may vary depending on the slow cooker model used—ensure the beef is tender before serving.
For a richer flavor, allow the coleslaw to marinate in the dressing for a short time before serving.
