Spread the dressing on four slices of rye bread, then layer with corned beef, Swiss cheese and warmed sauerkraut, and top with the remaining bread.
Butter the outside of each sandwich and griddle over medium heat for 3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden and the cheese has melted.
Cut in half and serve immediately while hot.
