Servings: persons

3 shell steaks (about 1/4 pound each)
Kosher salt
3/4 to 1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 head green cabbage, cored and finely shredded
1 carrot, peeled and coarsely grated
Kosher or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup sweet pickle relish, drained well in a sieve
3 cornichons, thinly sliced
8 to 12 slices seeded Jewish rye
Kosher salt

1
Preheat the oven to 450u00b0F. Rub the steaks all over with kosher salt (about 1/2 teaspoon per steak). Place the steaks on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until the meat registers 130u00b0F on an instant-read thermometer, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a board and let rest until cool (about 30 minutes). If possible, don't refrigerate the meat before assembling the sandwiches.
2
For the slaw, in a large bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar. Add the cabbage and carrot and toss well, then season with salt and pepper.
3
Fold together all the ingredients for the Russian dressing.
4
Slice the beef very thinly against the grain. To assemble, spread Russian dressing on one side of each slice of rye bread. Divide the sliced beef among half the slices of bread. For a deli-style look, drape the meat in a mound rather than laying it flat. Sprinkle the meat with a little salt, then top each sandwich with a generous scoop of coleslaw. Top the slaw with another small dollop of Russian dressing, close the sandwiches, and slice them in half. Provide plenty of napkins for your guests. (If your sandwich isn't a little messy, you did something wrong.)
