Some call these loose meat sandwiches. In the Midwest or at least here in my hometown we call them Tasties. Have your butcher triple grind your ground beef. The meat will crumble as you cook it. Also check your local bakeries or stores for dollar size buns. That is the classic way to eat a Tastie. Throw on some mustard and pickles and BAM! You're in heaven. Recipe from my mama.
