"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
These sandwiches have various names. Actually we called them "taverns" when the kids were home. When I was young, mother called them "hot tamales". In Iowa there was a chain of restaurants called "Maid Rite" and these sandwiches, their signature feature, were called "Maid Rites". In other parts of the country they are called "loose meat's". Oh well....enjoy!
