Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cut the rye bread slices into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the rye bread cubes and toss to coat evenly. Toast them in the skillet for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and slightly crisp.
Spread half of the toasted bread cubes evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer the corned beef evenly over the bread cubes, followed by the sauerkraut.
Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of the shredded Swiss cheese over the sauerkraut.
Drizzle the Thousand Island dressing over the Swiss cheese layer.
Add the remaining toasted bread cubes on top to form the final layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Swiss cheese on top, followed by a light dusting of caraway seeds (optional), salt, and black pepper.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Slice into portions and enjoy your Reuben Casserole!
