I'd say one of two ways:

1) Very simple: pastrami and some spicy mustard.

OR

2) Pastrami with sauerkraut, swiss cheese, and thousand island dressing. A delicious, classic reuben style sandwich.

Of course they HAVE to be on rye bread.

Agreed. Always have pastrami on rye and IMO the pastrami ruben is the most awesome sandwich to grace this universe with its presence.

The key ingredients are the thousand island dressing and the sauerkraut. The sauerkraut brings the savory element of the meat out, while the dressing brings out the sweetness. Meat is both savory and sweet, so if you accompany it with toppings that are both savory and sweet you will draw out more of the flavor and have really intense flavor combinations.

Thousand island dressings does not belong in the original Reuben sandwich. The original Reuben was made with Dijon mustard. Using Thousand Island Dressing is a modern variant.

My opinion is, thousand island dressing destroys the sandwich and should never be used.

The best way to make a pastrami sandwich is in the form of a classic Reuben.

A classic Reuben is toasted rye bread, with pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Dijon mustard. (of course a class Reuben uses corned beef rather than Pastrami.)

NB. Salad dressings do not belong on a sandwich!

Must say I'm an Italian fan - which includes pastrami - and I take mine with lettuce pickles and oil thanks.

I've been experimenting with sour cream and a few drops of liquid smoke.

The Classic is mustard (either ball park or horseradish style) and dill pickle (sourness to taste).

I actually find toppings completely unnecessary with pastrami. It just needs good bread and if you have any any extra room for toppings you should just add more pastrami.

I'm weird. I like ranch on it! The homemade stuff, not that funky bottled stuff. But again, I like it on pizza or baked potatoes also.

OOoooo...my favorite sandwich meat!

In our family, we like Hot and Sour Italians. I don't mean guys who've been stoking the bread ovens in a bakery in Sicily all day.

Start with a great, crusty bread, ideally with asiago cheese baked into the top.

Put down a layer of provolone cheese, then the pastrami.

Top with sliced pickled red onions, black olives (I like sliced kalamata), green peppers, sliced plum tomatoes (so it doesn't get waterlogged), a sprinkle of Parmesan, a little oregano, black pepper, and then spicy mustard and red wine vinegar on the top crust.

I made myself so hungry typing this that this is what I'll be having for supper!
