The Reuben Truck wants to launch this summer and would like help from the LA GFT foodies.

Hailing from Pittsburgh, PA, owner Jeff Wedner wants to “kick start” his dream. Click here for more information.

What is a reuben sandwich and what’s on it??

Here are some more details regarding my signature sandwich and what will be served on The Reuben Truck.  A traditional reuben is sliced corned beef brisket piled high, melted swiss cheese, sauerkraut and russian dressing on grilled rye bread. 

They also serve a twist on the Reuben called the Rachel, it features homemade cole slaw instead of sauerkraut.
