"Bob’s loosemeats are definitive. Browned, strained of fat, then pressure-cooked with sauce and spice, then drained again, this meat is moist, full-flavored and deeply satisfying. Each sandwich is made on a good-quality roll that Myles Kass secures from Le Mars’ own Vander Meer Bakery."

"Bob's Drive-Inn is a local legend in a town that's one of Iowa's best foodie destinations. This seasonal stop serves up famous Bob Dogs, topped with their seasoned loose meat. You can order a traditional Tavern here, too."
