Gerber sandwich is an open
sandwich from St. Louis, Missouri. Gerber consists of half the Italian or
French bread, smeared with garlic butter and topped with ham, and Provel or
Provolone cheese (the original sandwich made with Provolone), seasoned with a
sprinkling of paprika and then roasted.
"Gerber Special"
was first made by a local family-owned Deli Ruma, and named after their
customers and the next shop neighbor, Dick Gerber. Gerber owns a tire shop next
to Deli Ruma in the Covington Manor shopping center, and Ruma allows him to
make his own sandwiches in their kitchen for a small fee.
Dee and Tom Ruma were very
impressed with the sandwich he made one day that they added the sandwich to the
menu in 1973. The sandwich had been duplicated by many St. restaurants. Other
