bucket shop beefburgers
The Bucket Shop in St. Joseph, MO sold what they called Beefburgers. It was a "loose meat" sandwich that was a favorite of my grandparents, and became a favorite of later generations long after the restaurant closed. Posted in the memory of Peter "Pete" Simon Chirila III, 1934-2019
