Iowa Maid-Rites
This traditional sandwich from Iowa is made with ground beef that has been flavored with onions and broth. I created my own variation of Iowa MaidRites sandwiches, also known as “loose meat” sandwiches. Leftover beef is very adaptable and can be frozen for future use or used as a filling for spaghetti or tacos.
Over medium-high heat, crumble the ground beef into a sizable skillet.
Cook and stir until thoroughly browned, crumbling more frequently while cooking.
Grease should be drained.
Add the French onion soup and onion soup mix.
For this step, you can use a slow cooker or cover and simmer over low heat for about two hours.
