Instructions

  1. 1 Place sauerkraut with liquid into a slow cooker and lay corned beef on top. Add beer, onion, garlic, and pickling spice around and on top of corned beef.
  2. 2 Cook on Low until brisket is very tender, 7 to 8 hours. Remove brisket from the slow cooker and let rest for 10 minutes.
  3. 3 Drain and discard excess liquid from the slow cooker so you can easily access sauerkraut.
  4. 4 Thinly slice corned beef against the grain. Assemble open-faced sandwiches by layering corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese slices on rye bread. Reserve remaining corned beef for another use.
  5. 5 Place open-faced sandwiches in a toaster oven and toast until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Serve with Thousand Island dressing as a condiment.
