- Green onions
- Worcestershire sauce
- Seasoned salt
How to Make Cold Reuben Dip
Put all of your sliced corned beef on a big old plate and dice it up really well.
Chop up your onions, too.
Place all ingredients in a large bowl.
Mix. You saw that coming, didn’t ya? 😉
Line a bowl with cling wrap and press your dip into it. Cover with more cling wrap and press it down a bit with your hands so that it molds to the shape of the bowl. Refrigerate overnight.
This is important because this is where your dip develops all of the wonderful flavors. Until then, it won’t taste near as good!
To serve this cold Reuben dip, remove from bowl and discard cling wrap. Top with more chopped green onion and serve alongside your favorite crackers.
Storage
Store leftover corned beef dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Christy – You are just the sweetest thing. I love the fact that you would pull over and ask them to disembark the vehicle. Here in Texas, we’re not quite so nice! We would just slow down and kick their ass to the curb!! I have had this dip before from a friend, but yours looks better because the meat is more finely chopped. Yumm!!
Hey Christy @southernplate – this is off subject but are you planning on being at the cornbread festival this year?
Your words of wisdom are always so down-to-earth. Love them. However, I clicked on this recipe because I thought “getting rid of discouragers” was actually going to be about people who don’t eat corned beef. That would be me 🙂 I’m not even sure what it is!
