True Maid-Rites are served by the Maid Rite Resturaunt, 125 N. Broadway, Greenville, OH.
The true Maid-Rite recipe is a family secret, held closely by the owners of the resturaunt.
Here are two copycat Maid-Rite Sandwich Recipes I found on the Web: ____________________________
Faux Maid-Rite
1 lb Ground Beef 1 tsp ground pepper 1 tsp sugar 2 tsp prepared mustard 6 oz beer (optional) salt (to taste)
Combine ground beef, pepper, sugar, mustard, salt in the top of a double-boiler and add beer.
Cover top and heat for one-half hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it cooks, the more the flavors blend together. Toward the end, uncover to allow some of the liquid to boil off.
Use a slotted serving spoon to serve on hamburger buns with mustard, dill pickles and chopped onion. Serves 6.
Notes: Use prepared yellow salad mustard, such as that for hamburgers or hot dogs. Do not use dry powdered mustard, or a Dijoni or Poupon style mustard. Use a good quality, low fat ground beef. Water may be substituted for beer. _______________________________________ Maid Rites Clone 1 1/2 pounds ground beef 2 teaspoons granulated sugar 3-4 teaspoons prepared mustard 4 Tablespoons beer To Taste: red pepper black pepper garlic salt salt
Brown & drain the hamburger. Stir in the other ingredients and simmer. Spices are added "to taste."
The Maid Rite serves their sandwiches with a choice of cheese, mustard and chopped fresh onion. Bet ya' can't eat just one! |
