LOOSE MEAT SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook onions until brown and carmelized. Add ground beef and cook until brown.
• Add salt, pepper, garlic powder and beef broth to cover. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until broth is gone, 15 to 30 minutes.
• Serve meat on buns topped with dill pickle slices and mustard.
• *We steam the buns on top of the meat (with lid on skillet) for a minute or two to get them nice and soft.

ROSEANNE'S LOOSE MEAT SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add onion, stirring occasionally until translucent and tender, 6 minutes.
• Add ground beef, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat into small crumbles. Season with salt and pepper.
• Once half the meat has browned, add garlic, Worcestershire and mustard. Stir until combined, and cook the meat until it is no longer pink at all.
• Pile meat onto one hamburger bun, top with pickles, and cover with the other half of the bun. Repeat until you have four sandwiches.

LOOSE MEAT SANDWICH (MAID-RITE COPYCAT)

Steps:

• In a large skillet, combine beef, water, mustard, and sugar. Simmer over medium heat until the beef is cooked through, about 5 minutes, breaking up clumps of meat with a spoon.
• Drain the fat if desired (I don't, and it is closer to the original recipe if you don't, but you can if you want). Stir in onion and season to taste with salt and pepper (I like 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper).
• Serve meat on buns with toppings on the side such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and pickles.

MARTY'S LOOSEMEAT SANDWICH

TASTY LOOSE MEAT SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In large skillet add 2 tablespoons butter, when butter begins to melt add diced onion and green pepper. Simmer onion and peppers in skillet for about 6 minutes. Make sure you dice the green pepper and Spanish onion prior to adding to the ground beef.
• Next, add merlot wine, allow wine to simmer for about a minute. Before adding ground beef take a potato masher and work through the meat in order to break the meat into tiny pieces. Add ground beef and simmer for about 8 minutes before turning meat over to brown both sides.
• After both sides are brown, add gravy packet along with 1/2 cup of cold water, stir gravy, onion and peppers throughly through the ground beef.
• Next, you need to add salt, garlic powder, sea salt and cracked pepper, make sure all ingredients are mixed evenly through ground beef. Once the remainder of ingredients are added, simmer over medium heat for an additional 8-12 minutes.
• Serve hot on a fresh kaiser or poppy seed roll. Homemade kaiser rolls from the bakery are the best. Loose meat sandwiches can be served with fries, potato chips or simply by itself.

THE BLUE MILL TAVERN LOOSEMEAT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Get out a cast iron skillet-they are the best for loosemeats-or other kind if you have no iron skillet.
• Melt fat over medium heat and lightly salt bottom of skillet.
• Break ground beef up in skillet and start crumbling it with the back of a wooden spoon-this is very important-the meat must end up being cooked up into small crumbles.
• Add chopped onion while browning meat.
• Keep working with the back of spoon to break up meat.
• When meat is browned, drain off any fat and return meat to skillet.
• Add mustard, vinegar, sugar, and just enough water to barely cover meat in the pan.
• Cook, at a simmer, till water is all cooked out-between 15-20 minutes.
• Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat your hamburger buns-they're traditionally steamed for loosemeats-I like mine toasted lightly-do it the way you like it.
• When buns are warm, put yellow mustard on them and add some dill pickle slices-I put on lots!
• *If you start changing this recipe and using things like olive oil for the fat and Dijon or honey mustard for the yellow mustard, you will not get the traditional yummy taste of a loosemeat sandwich.
• Likewise, don't add any liquid smoke or Worcestershire sauce.
• Make them just like this the first time so you can sample the simplicity of this famous Midwestern treat.
• If you want to start making changes after that by all means do so but I'd like you to taste the original recipe at least once.
• Serve with homemade potato salad and chips or with my Easy Cheesy Potato recipe.
