Recipe Introduction
Posted by: IMWinkyPA***********Chiodo's Bar was near my home - torn down now for a Wal-green's. The place was to be really interesting, where the steel mill workers would congregate after work in Homestead, suburb of Pittsburgh. Unfortunately, I never took the time to go there. The owner died just this summer. One of the local papers printed the famous "Mystery Sandwich" recipe that I don't know if it's the real deal or not.
List of Ingredients
Chiodo's Mystery Sandwich
Cook hamburger patty. Top with thin slices of kielbasa and sauerkraut (see below). Heat through. Top with "mystery cheese" (a slice of provolone and a slice of American, with three pepperoni slices between) and "mystery sauce" (see below). Heat until melted.
Sauerkraut: Drain and rinse kraut. Add red and green pepper, garlic, sugar, oregano, red pepper seeds and tomato sauce. Bake at a350 degrees for 1 1/2 hrs, "depending on your crunch factor". Add seasonal vegetables to taste.
Mystery sauce: Mix tomato sauce or puree with tomato juice to make a "not-too-thick/not-too-thin" sauce. Add red pepper seeds, sugar, oregano, garlic, pepper and "whatever floats your boat".
Recipe
There are no measurements, the recipe cautions. That's what makes it a mystery every time!
