WORLD FAMOUS HORSESHOE SANDWICH
"Horseshoes" are a Springfield, Illinois original, first created by the chef at the "The Red Coach" for his luncheon clientèle. The story goes that he had a lot of extra cheese sauce left over one day and decided to throw it over the "chopped steak" and gravy sandwiches the patrons were always ordering. He added some shoestring potatoes on top, and a sensation was born! This recipe is a update of the original (which called for a whole cup of flour!) and your family will positively beg for more. Don't skimp on the cheese sauce. If your appetite is smaller, cut this in half. Then you have what we call around here, a "pony shoe"!

Steps:
- For the beerbit sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until blond, about 5 minutes. Add in the milk and beer and whisk. Simmer until thick, about 10 minutes. Then add the Sriracha and jack cheese. Remove from the heat and stir until the cheese has melted. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- For the shoestring potatoes: Preheat the oil to 350 degrees F. Using a mandoline set with the julienne attachment, carefully run the potatoes through, creating thin matchsticks. Place the potatoes into a colander and rinse with water to wash off the excess starch. Then place onto a baking sheet lined with a dish towel and pat as dry as you possibly can.
- Carefully place a handful of fries into the hot oil and fry them until crispy, about 2 minutes. Keep the potatoes moving and don't walk away, these small shoestrings go fast! Drain on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with garlic salt as soon as they come out of the fryer.
- For the sandwich build: On the griddled Texas toast, place the ham, then a pile of shoestrings, then ladle the rarebit sauce over the entire thing. Garnish with chopped parsley.
HORSESHOE
Every time we visit Springfield, Illinois we have to eat one of their famous horseshoes. The cheese sauce is a little different depending on where you stop to eat, seems everyone has their own way of making it. But we love them all. If you only use one slice of bread and one hamburger patty it is called a ponyshoe. This recipe can also be made with chicken tenders in place of the hamburger patties.

Steps:
- Preheat a sauce pan over medium heat. Add butter. Once melted, stir in the flour and allow it to brown for about a minute. Stir in the milk, beer, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper.
- Reduce heat to low and allow the mixture to cook for 5 minutes. You do not want to simmer the sauce. Stir frequently as it cooks. Then remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cheese in batches. Allow the mixture to cool while you cook the patties.
- Bring a large cast iron pan to medium-high heat. Add the ground venison to a mixing bowl. Combine the Worcestershire sauce with the meat. Season the meat to your taste with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Divide the meat into fourths and form into patties.
- Place each patty in the cast iron pan to cook. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes and then flip. Add whatever beer is left over to deglaze the pan. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
- On the plates, place the burger patties on top of the toast. Ladle the cheese sauce over the patties and toast. Top with fresh French fries. Garnish with chives and enjoy with a cold beer.
