MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Maid Rite Hamburgers
Categories: Five, Beef, Poultry, Sandwiches
Yield: 4 Servings

Ground beef; cooked,
- crumbled
Onion; diced
Chicken Broth
Salt and Pepper

Toppings alllowed: yellow mustard, sweet pickle relish.

Born and raised in Iowa and Maid Rites were the best! I
have a recipe that hits really close so I thought I'd
share.

Cook and crumble the ground beef. Add onion, salt, pepper
and chicken broth. Heat through and serve.

This is kind of a "dump and pour" recipe as we make just
to our liking. We like a little extra chicken broth with
ours. Be sure to use chicken and not beef broth as it is
too overwhelming.

Some people may not "get" what a Maid Rite is all about,
but a few of us do!!!!

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Diner Steak Burger
Categories: Beef, Sandwiches
Yield: 6 Servings

1 lb Beefsteak; ground, no more
- than 20% fat
Oregano & basil; mixed,
- crumbled
6 Standard hamburger buns;
- seeds optional
6 sl Onion; 1/8" or less thick
6 sl Red, ripe tomato
Dill pickle chips
6 sl American cheese; opt
6 Leaves iceberg lettuce

MMMMM-------------------------CONDIMENTS------------------------------
Salt & Pepper
Yellow mustard
Mayonnaise
Catsup
Steak sauce

Divide ground steak into 6 equal balls. Flatten into
patties between two sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap.
Make patties slightly larger than the diameter of the
bun.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Put a pat of
butter on the skillet and lay a patty on top of it.
Sprinkle a pinch of the oregano and basil mixture on
top of the meat. Place a small ice cube on top of the
patty and cover with a lid that will fit inside the
skillet and over the burger. Flip patty over only once
during frying, fry (medium) only long enough for juices
to start running clear. Over cooking will toughen and
dry the meat.

Using a standard size bun; on the top half of the sliced
bun, add 1 slice tomato, next 1 thin slice onion, then
one leaf of lettuce and the pickle chips (slice of
American cheese is optional,) finally the still hot
cooked patty and other half of the bun, turn burger to
right-side-up, add a handful of potato chips and one
wedge of a dill pickle (if you don't want to use the
pickle chips on the sandwich) to the plate.

Condiments on table should be, salt and pepper shaker,
mustard, ketchup, mayonnaise and steak sauce.

Makes 6 sandwiches
