The horseshoe sandwich originated in Springfield Illinois. This food item begins with thick-sliced toasted bread most often Texas toast and most often hamburger patties or ham. Other meat is also used such as deep fried pork tenderloin grilled or fried chicken breast and fried fish filets. There is also a breakfast horseshoe that uses eggs and hash browns. The meat is topped with French fries and smothered with a secret cheese sauce.
