Our version with added bread and butter pickles, a side of homemade french fries and a cold beer. |
We found out quickly that the founder of an Iowa based restaurant chain - Maid-Rite originated these sandwiches back in the 1920's and that they couldn't be easier to make. Not surprisingly, as their name implies, they are loose meat sandwiches, basically Sloppy Joes without the slop. Their flavor comes from a few key ingredients: a good grade of ground beef, onions, garlic powder (we used minced garlic), yellow mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. We also used a little white vinegar.
Ingredients
1 lb ground chuck
1 medium onion, minced
(reserve some for garnish)
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
1 Tbsp white vinegar
1 Tbsp Worcestershire
sauce
2 tsps. sugar
1 clove garlic minced
salt and pepper to taste
6 hamburger buns
Sliced pickles
Instructions
Heat a large saute pan or skillet on medium heat.
Add onion and cook until translucent
Add ground beef and cook until browned
Mix in the other ingredients until well combined
Serve on toasted hamburger buns topped with minced onions and
pickles and a side of fries. Have a fork handy because the loose meat is going to tumble out of the bun with every bite.
