NUWAYS A/K/A MAID-RITES

Steps:

• Pour water into a cast iron pan.
• Add l lb. ground beef and keep stirring until meat is broken into very small pieces.
• Bring to a boil and cook until water is reduced by half. (What happens is the beef browns, breaks up into smaller and smaller pieces, and becomes tender, while the water reduces and packs in the flavor. The fat is left in the water, not on the beef, while the beef is juicy.).
• Ready the buns with French's mustard, and a large dill pickle slice, Dice an onion and pull out a slice of American cheese.
• Dip a 1/2 cup strainer into the beef mixture, push the liquid through it with a spoon to the desired "juiciness". Fry separately in a cast iron skillet for a few minutes, until the beef is lightly browned. Salt the meat; add the diced onions and cheese. Put the buns together and cut in two pieces.
• Cover the hot sandwich (with a deep lid or bowl, or wrap in waxed paper) for a couple of minutes to steam the bun and allow the cheese to melt.
• Serve immediately with a cold root beer, and blast your way to the past!

SLOW COOKER HEAVEN: LOOSE MEAT SANDWICHES

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. Gather your ingredients
• 3. Reconstitute the dried onions by combining them with 1 cup of the hot beef stock.
• 4. Chef's Note: Allow them to absorb the hot stock for about 20 minutes.
• 5. Chef's Note: Why dried chopped onions? For some reason I love the flavor they impart to this recipe. Dried onions that have been reconstituted with beef broth do have a different depth of flavor. You could, of course try it with fresh chopped onions.
• 6. Place a pan over medium heat, and add the ground beef.
• 7. Cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon until almost cooked through.
• 8. Chef's Tip: The reason we are precooking the beef is because the proteins in raw beef act like little hooks to bind the beef together as it cooks. If you put the meat in raw it will come out like a big round meatloaf. Precooking breaks that bound and allows the beef to cook without binding together.
• 9. Add the onions, salt, garlic, sugar, cumin, mustard, vinegar, and the additional beef stock to the slow cooker.
• 10. Mix until combined.
• 11. Add the partially cooked beef, and combine.
• 12. Set the slow cooker to low, and allow the ingredients to cook for 4 hours.
• 13. After 4 hours, remove from the slow cooker.
• 14. Prep/Prepare
• 15. Use a slotted spoon to remove a generous amount of the loose meat, and place on a nice soft bun. Add mustard, pickle, or whatever you fancy. Enjoy.
• 16. Keep the faith and keep cooking.
