I stumbled across this sandwich working my very first electronic repair job in Springfield MN.
Springfield Sandwich as served at the Springfield Cafe
thick slices of roast beef
thick slices of sourdough bread
swiss cheese
thousand island dressing
sliced tomato
butter
Butter one side of the bread and put it butter side down in your pan
Add a slice of swiss on top of each slice of bread
add the roast beef on top of one slice with the dressing on top of that
put the tomato on the other slice of bread
grill until the bread is toasted and the cheese melted, flip the tomato said onto the meat side and serve with extra dressing on the side
Good use of canned or leftover roast beef, reheat in a little stock first. This is messy to eat, I use a knife and fork because the way I make it they are over an inch thick of fillings
