Ok, so I don’t know if it was invented here but the loose meat sandwich comes from a small place in Ottumwa, Iowa called The Canteen in the Alley. This is the place that the diner in Roseanne was modeled after. At the time, she was married to Tom Arnold, who is from Ottumwa, Iowa (as am I). They actually opened their own loose meat sandwich restaurant just outside of Ottumwa in the early 90’s, although it didn’t last long. The Canteen is still in Ottumwa and is still the best sandwich ever!

I worked at a restaurant called Maid Rite in St. Joseph, MO. I think they were originally from Iowa. Their specialty was the loose meat sandwich called a Maid Rite. Hamburger was steamed in a special cooker, they would add a little water as it cooked and nothing else but onions. They used rehydrated onions, which they did not cook the onions ahead of time, they were just added to the meat.

One version of the origin of the "loose meat" sandwich was from Sioux City, Iowa. From the Ye Olde Tavern. I worked there after it was bought and changed to Downing's House of Pancakes in late 70's. They still had the old steam table that the loose meat was cooked on. I also worked with an original employee in her 70's named Marie. Everyone called her grandma. She told me that the loose meat sandwich at the "Ye Olde Tavern" went way back in the 30's to 40's in Sioux City. There were also 2 small drive thru joints called "Tastee Inn & Out" that served loose meats and was most likely copied and developed into the Maid Rite. Roseanne Barr's Character had the restaurant sandwich most likely because at that time, she was married to Tom Arnold and he was from Iowa.

For the record, your kid is wrong... "it's all down hill from there" means that it's easy from that point on. You're saying "I got the hardest part out of the way, and the rest from here on out is easy" because downhill is EASY, "It's all uphill" means that it's all difficult going forward. So.... if the onions are the hardest part, then YES "It's all downhill from there" IS correct.

In 1926, the Maid-Rite sandwich was born! Fred Angell started the concept in Muscatine, Iowa. Fred began to franchise his idea, selling the rights to Newton, Iowa in 1927 and Marshalltown, Iowa in 1928. Legend has it the loose meat sandwich (known in snootier circles as a “tavern sandwich”) was invented in 1924 by a man named Dave Higgin at Ye Olde Tavern in Sioux City, Iowa. Others say it was invented four years earlier by an equally enterprising chef in Montana.

Growing up in a small town in Oklahoma, there was a walk-up burger stand called Don's Dairy Freeze. He sold a loose meat sandwich he called "The Ranch Burger" (no relation to the salad dressing). Many years after he retired, I ended up with the recipe and it is one of my family favorites. The recipe is all about being able to be made in bulk and served quickly. It uses 85/15 beef which you BOIL in water until the fat renders out, leaving pebbles of meat. Then you drain almost all of the water and return the meat to a pot and add in a sauce that you make ahead of time in a blender (made with ketchup, mustard, vinegar, sugar, worcestershire, lemon juice, tabasco and a few other things). The amount isn't specific, you just add until the meat and sauce are combined (not too much, this isn't a sloppy joe). You heat it until the meat and sauce are warm and you're ready to serve. You serve on toasted buns with a thin layer of mustard. These things are incredible!

Maid Rites are waaaaay better than sloppy joes because they don't have all that tangy saucy stuff that makes you gag. Just meat, onion and some light seasoning on an air-bread bun. Add ketchup, mustard, pickle and cheese if you want to. Nothing pretentious about it - just an honest sandwich with good beef flavor. You'll want a spoon to scoop up the meat that falls out.

The best Maid-Rites (loose meat sandwiches) are from Greenville, OH. Here is a close clone I came up with after much trial and error: Maid-rites ..... 1 lb ground chuck. Browned and drained well of fat (I try to squeeze as much fat out of meat in colander using the back of a spatula) 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon Splenda 1.5 tablespoons yellow mustard (regular table mustard out of squeeze bottle, NOT MUSTARD POWDER) 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. After browning and draining meat of fat, return to skillet and add all other ingredients to meat and add enough water to cover mixture. Boil out all the water, trying to finely break up the meat as the water boils out. Try to boil as much water out as possible. You want the meat mixture crumbly. Add meat to buns with a layer of mustard, finely diced onions, and pickle slices. Top with Kraft cheese slices (optional). After the sandwich is assembled I like to nuke the sandwich in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. This softens up the bun more and slightly melts the cheese. Maid-rite steams their buns which makes them extra soft. So nuking the sandwiches like this after they’re assembled replicated the steamed buns.

Ketchup is normally not used in that recipe. Bun topped with mustard, pickle and onion. The little bits that fall off on to your plate are like a little treat to eat with a spoon. This has always been my favorite burger and I make them 2X a month or more.

I'm definitely going to make those up the next time I make the ol' loose meats. Always love watching you cook, man!

There was a restaurant called Maid-Rite. Where they made the lose meat sandwich. They freshly ground all their beef fresh in the basement. All cuts of the cow were used. It was nothing but cooked, salted ground beef and a bun. Café style restaurant.

We don’t call them loose meat sandwiches in Iowa. They are Maid Rites. Named after the restaurants of the same name. Roseanne was the first time I ever heard them called loose meat. I grew up 20 miles from the Maid Rite restaurant, the Canteen in Ottumwa, Iowa, that Roseanne’s diner on the show was based on. The Canteen is still in business, in fact a few years ago the city decided it needed a parking garage right where it was located. The community rallied in support of this historic landmark and built the parking garage over the diner so it could remain a part of Ottumwa’s history. Ottumwa is the hometown of Tom Arnold, Roseanne’s ex-husband. That’s how the Maid Rite “loose meat” became part of the show. Traditionally, they also add cheeze whiz to the burger.
@endtimeelijah48513 жыл бұрын
I grew up on these and still make them all the time. Simple and quick. I'll usually put liquid cheese like a Cheez Whiz or a slice of pepperjack over the meat to help keep in in the bun and some mustard.

I think it was founded in Marshalltown IA, Tom and Rosann actually had a diner near Ottumwa IA...the actual maid-rites didnt have onions you would add everything as a condiments to the loose meat. To keep it together without needing a spoon you would smash the sandwich to keep it from falling apart.

Carroll Dietz of Missoula, Montana, created the precursor to the tavern sandwich in 1920, referred to as a "steamed hamburger." In 1926, Fred Angell began selling his version of the sandwich at the first Maid-Rite restaurant in Muscatine, Iowa, under the name "loose meat sandwich." The name "tavern" for the sandwich is credited to David Heglin. Heglin sold the sandwiches at his Sioux City, Iowa, restaurant in 1924. After Heglin died, Abe Kaled bought the business in 1934 and renamed the restaurant Ye Olde Tavern after the sandwich. Kaled perfected the recipe for the ground beef, and the tavern sandwich spread to restaurants and bars across the Sioux City area. Tavern sandwich - Wikipedia

I grew up in St Joseph MO, and the "Maid-Rite" was one of our favorites. After moving to Dallas in '79, we always missed the Maid-Rite. Now, I always make extra taco meat when I make tacos, just for this purpose. I put it on a bun or bread, with pickles and mustard, and it is absolutely delicious. After many years, and going back to visit, I had another Maid-Rite. I discovered that I now liked the spicier version that I make from the taco meat. Try it, you won't be disappointed!

That moment before Sam brings out the garlic press giveaways, when he takes one more bite of the loose meat and say “it’s pretty fu*!ing good actually “ is so funny and unintentional comic timing. I feel like he was doing an obligatory regional cook that he wasn’t that jazzed about but it suddenly dawned on him that seasoned ground beef, pickles, fried onions, warm bun???? And all I do is piss away the moment with how messy it is??? “It’s pretty fu!*ing good actually “ is classic Sam. Love that moment.

Many years ago me and my siblings made a visit to our grandmother in KS. upon arriving after a long drive, she had prepared “sloppy Joe’s” in the slow cooker: she was not known to be a good cook, so we all gave each other that sideways glance. At any rate , we ended up diving in and were all tremendously pleased! It wasn’t sloppy Joe’s, but I feel must be closer to this! Also check out Runza in NE, probably similar! Cool regional dish
