How do we kill Rat Ogres effectively?

Me and my compatriots have been tasked with helping to clean out the once great city of Ubersreik from a filthy horde of Skaven. We enjoy cleaving and shooting our way through these filthy creatures invading our city killing any assassin, gas rat, or slaver rat in our sights.

However as fearless as my mighty companions and I may be there is one thing that fills our minds with nothing but thoughts of terror and death, the terrifying howl of a mighty rat ogre who always seems to find us at the least opportune times. Although me and my companions are wielding the mightiest steel we can find our blades and bows do not phase this great beast and it isn't long before the four of us are writhing on the ground in a bloody mess.

My question is how can my comrades and I avoid being turned into the previously mentioned bloody mess and vanquish this mighty foe and save what is left of Ubersreik?
