This time of year, my stomach craves one thing: a Reuben sandwich. That's because St. Patrick's Day is basically here.

How Irish is the Reuben Sandwich?

According to cookingwithcocktailrings.com, the Reuben sandwich isn't as Irish as you think it is. The sandwich was thought to be created in Omaha, Nebraska mid-poker game. But the corned beef has some Irish roots, kind of.

The Irish-corned beef relationship is considered to be much more Irish-American than it is purely Irish.

Either way, we'll happily fill our tummies with a delicious Reuben made in the Quad Cities to celebrate the patron saint of Ireland.
