That photo doesn't make it look too appetizing!
No it doesn't...
Like leprechauns, horseshoes are hard to photograph.
Asking the great google, and trying to find a decent photo, I find...
A
hamburger Horseshoe (the most popular). There's a second beef patty on the left side that you can't see.
A
ham Horseshoe (the original).
And many places will make a
Breaded Tenderloin horseshoe, which consists of the breaded pork tenderloin that this guy is eating
, but on a plate with cheese & fries. Serious appetites only.
The secret is all in the cheese sauce. Crappy places basically just use Cheez-wiz, which is an insult to the Horseshoe.
Good places (the places I would take my Axiom buddies) use something more akin to
welsh rarebit.
Here's a happy Horseshoe customer, doing it the proper way with a good beer in one hand and a Horseshoe in the other.
