Beef Corral was dreamed up by brothers Dick and Ed Modzelewski. This was not their first restaurant venture, but it was unique in that it was quick serve beef with a "western flavor".¹ The A-frame buildings that still stand proudly in your mind were designed by Chesterland, Ohio's Samuel M. Mills in 1967.² The Modzelewski brothers had become "real ranchers" and raised their own beef.
