FastidiousRobot:
Reminds me of when I went to a place that was advertising itself as an authentic deli, ordered a Reuben, and they asked me if I wanted corned beef or turkey.
I said again, nicely, that I’d like to please have a Reuben and had to explain, in a friendly way and trying not to sound condescending, that meant I wanted corned beef (or possibly pastrami if they had it.)
In the end, it wasn’t very good.
Only two parts of a Reuben are debatable.
Corned beef or Pastrami. Assuming that the Pastrami in question is a variant of corned beef, and not turkey pastrami.
Russian Dressing. Because you’re going to get closer to Russian Dressing with Thousand Island than what passes for “Russian Dressing” in a lot of places.
Anything else, call it a ham, cheese, and sauerkraut on rye. Or whatever. It might be a really good sandwich. But it’s not a Reuben.

Calling a turkey sandwich a Reuben is probably a sincere mistake. Calling a ham sandwich a Reuben might be anywhere from a mistake to a deliberate insult.

I’m going to guess this crowd isn’t going to be very receptive to the Turcules Rueben, so I won’t even suggest it.

Also serves a variety of ingredients such as chicken, corn, green peppers, chili and sigh… onions…

While we’re discussing this, I want Catalina Capers on my sandwich.
Oh, but hold the chili peppers. Chili peppers burn my gut.
