Bobkat1: I lived in Des Moines for a few years and visited Roseann Barr's place :Big Food" Her pork tenderloins were excellent and her maid rites were so good that thet never left any oil spot on the waxed paper lining the baskets.

Freirich. YUM. I LOVE tenderloin (smoked pork butt) boiled or steamed with a bit o butter
and mustard on some fresh, soft potato or white bread. And how about mince? Catsup on fresh bread????? Salivating.
Rainy days are perfect for both meats.

Pardon me, but loin and butt are two different cuts of meat. The loin runs along the back and the butt is....... butt.

The Maid Rite in Iowa City is still there. It must do a good business as it's been there for many years.

Yeah, being steamed MR's don't seem as greasy as regular burgers. Not there is anything wrong with a big greasy burger - I love 'em both.

I wonder if MR could somehow tout some kind of health benefit from steaming vs. frying?

I'm late to the party, but Mccall's Tavern in SS has a decent pork tenderloin sandwich! We were shocked to see it on the menu. Hadn't had one in years, so we enjoyed them a lot!

Does anyone on here know how the original maid rites were made? I'd love to have the real recipe. We've tried very hard to duplicate it and have come close but just can't seem to get it exactly right. Any help is much appreciated!

Were you ever at The Red Rooster Tavern in Iowa City. All I remember is it was a great bar and near the University.

The thread is pork tenderloin ... what is a Maid Rite? Sounds like a loose meat sandwich to me!

We had terrific breaded pork tenderloin sandwiches in Indiana...
and someone ..just a week ago... told us a place , I believe in
Tavares area . BUT my memory fails me again !
Maybe google pork tenderloin sandwiches in Tavares ...or in Mount Dora.
This is an Indiana cook... and I can't believe that I didn't write this down .
Sorry..

Pulled pork is not what WE want!
Mccall's Tavern in SS has a good fried tenderloin!
