Maid-Rites
This recipe is new to me as I had never heard of this type of sandwich. This recipe is from the Mark Twain Dinette in Hannibal, MO, and they have been making these since 1942. The recipe was provided to me by a good friend who has been enjoying these for 50 years, at the same dinette.

Cuisine American
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 yellow onion, minced
- 500 grams ground beef, (1 lb)
- 1 cup beef broth, fresh or from powder
- 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- hamburger buns, steamed, for serving
Heat the olive oil in a non stick pan on medium heat, when hot, add the onion and cook until just tender.
Add the ground beef and break it into crumbles while it cooks using your spatula.
As the beef begins to brown, stir in the beef broth. Then add the mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally or until the liquid is cooked out.
Spoon the crumbly meat mixture on a steamed hamburger bun. Serve topped with your choice of pickle slices, sliced onion, ketchup, or mustard, or any combination. Don't forget a couple a pickle spears on the side as well.
Honorable mention by my friend providing this recipe: "I have been eating these for like 50 yrs. I prefer mine with sliced onion and mustard." So when I make this, that is what I am going to use as well, sounds like a winner.
Low cost.
