The first time I ever heard of a Pastrami on Rye sandwich was in 1964 when I was in the US Navy boot camp in Great Lakes, Illinois. Our Northern aka Yankee fellow trainees talked about the Pastrami on Rye with mustard sandwich like it was a gift from Heaven. Being from North Carolina and living in a One-Horse Town, sandwiches like the Pastrami on Rye, Reuben, Philly Cheese Steak, Rachel, Liverwurst and onion on Rye and other Deli sandwiches were all Greek to me. I don't think I ever had a real pan pizza unless it was the square slices the school cafeteria served during my high school years.

The armed forces has a way of manifesting many things to a boy aka young man exposing one to various cuisines and cultures from around the world which can be a good thing!

I make the Pastrami on Rye Sandwich every once in a while and finally got around to adding it to my Sandwiches Recipe section. BTW, I consumed about 3/4 of the above sandwich and placed the balance in a zip lock type bag for a later snack. My bride opted for a couple regular tomato sandwiches. The above Pastrami On Rye is a meal within itself!

I added the onion, cheese and lettuce for a little "eye candy" for the camera and you can add whatever you want but just plain Pastrami on Rye with mustard is pretty much traditional.
