SLOPPY MUSHROOM SANDWICH

[Joe in T.C.]

I don't know if there is an original.

My grandmother made this for my grandfather 70+ years ago.

My mother made it for her family and now my wife and my sisters make it.

Like with so many recipes it varies greatly depending on what's on hand.

Sometimes we use ground beef or venison other times it's made with leftover pot roast, pork roast, and even chicken.

In spring it may get morel mushrooms or leeks and in fall it might be chicken in the woods. When peppers are scarce onions work well.

If you are low on bread serve it over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Throw in some diced potatoes and you have a stew. Or thin it down and float some homemade dumplings on top.

Food can be exciting and if you like to cook, the possibilities are endless with almost any recipe.

Suggestions are always helpful and can be something you may not have thought of doing yourself. Some good and some bad.

I had a friend at work who added hot peppers to apple crisp, well it was...not so good.

Good Luck All

I think one thing that we can all agree on,is when Joe post a recipe we can pretty much figure that if it sounds good,it will be good ! Sure, we all "Tweak" recipes to our liking, but w/ his recipes there aint much "Tweaking" that needs to be done. His Venison Logs recipe & sausage gravy are made here way too often ! Planning on trying this one in the next week, & I'll be "Tweaking" it w/ venison burger because we dont eat cow.

I made this Friday night to eat for lunch  on Saturday on the ice.

I added onion, a little Worcestershire sauce, a splash of hot sauce and a few spoonfuls of rotel. The rotel addition was great and gave it a pop of color.

Warmed it up on the ice and it smelled sooo good out in the cold.

Finally got around to trying this tonight. As usual another recipe from Joe thats a WINNER ! Yes I did use venison , but thats the only thing I changed. This would be an awesome make ahead dish for deer camp or any other outing or get together. It may not look the greatest, but the flavor is off the chart. Almost used canned mushrooms, glad I didnt. Fresh is the way to go. Thanks again Joe.
