they served it in white foldable boxes you could take with you it was kind of soupy 
but man it was tender n lots of sopping juice. i would love to have that recipe if 
anyone knows it.

Hi Dorothy,

I'm sorry, I can't find anything at all about this. I might be able to find at least a mention if you can tell me the name of the grocery store.

I will post this. Maybe someone will remember it.

We had similar type of que sandwiches in Oklahoma in the 60s.  You could smell it when 
walking in the store.  As I remember, it was “Hill billy barbeque sauce”.  They would use 
an electric frying pan to heat the meat.  Sandwiches were 25 cents.  Usually a hillbilly 
sauce company representative, made the sandwiches to sell the sauce.  My dad watched 
the method of making, and then all you had to buy was sauce and buns.  Get a can of 
corned beef.  Not hash the kind opened with a key.  Put in pan with sauce and heat on low.  
You can add too much sauce because as the meat heats up and you stir it gets soupy if 
you add too much sauce.  I don’t think Hillbilly sauce is made anymore, but use your 
favorite brand.  A very quick meal and you would never guess it is canned corned beef.

This might have been Hillbilly BBQ Sauce made in Sapulpa, Oklahoma.
