OK here is our new poll. What is your favorite sandwich? You know the one if you have one to take to the game and you have your choice you will wrap up in the wax paper and bring it to the stadium with a couple of brewski's. Now assume that it will be hot because there is a stand right outside so there is no issue as to the taste. The one when you go up to your buddy's tailgate party that you ask for.
Which is your favorite out of these four taste treats:
The Meatball parmigiana hero.
The Philly Cheese steak hero.
Hot Pastrami on Rye.
The Oyster Po-boy.
Chew on that one for a while.
Of the four, I'll take the pastrami.
ReplyDeleteBut I much prefer a nice Italian.
Not you. You're not nice.
Wow the pastrami sandwich is the lead in the early going.
ReplyDeleteIf Cedarford posted here he would blame it on the Jews!
I gotta go with the meatball parm.
ReplyDeleteWhat about a nice Irish?
Hey, don't blame me. I voted for the cheese steak.
ReplyDeleteJust seems like the most substantial sandwich, the best one for fortifying yourself to sit in the cold stands.
Though that Oyster Po-Boy (which I've never had; quelle povertay) looks damn fine.
I always thought I was Irish before critical members of my family turned out to be adopted.
ReplyDeleteTo quote Randy Newman: I've always been crazy about Irish girls.
Irish cooking not so much, though.
But the cheesesteak? Isn't that a little bland?
I've never had a po-boy, tragically.
LOL. Yeah, I don't claim Irish heritage while I'm cooking. That would go nowhere.
ReplyDeleteWhat's a Po Boy?
ReplyDeleteI have had sex with Poor Young Men, preferably of ethnic persuasion but have never had a Po Boy.
Ethnic men generally have uncut hogs. Uncut hogs are very fascinating. Some are pretty and some are not. The downside of an uncut hog is that you can't see the head and the head of the hog is a very important component or piece of the hog.
I am cut for those who wanted to know.
Which one of those pictures is an Oyster Po Boy? Is it only Oyster Po Boy's? Can you have other types of Po Boys?
ReplyDeleteYou can tell you are not from the midwest Troop. Midwesterns would not call Oyster Fish. Fish is fish. All other seafood is seafood. I learned the diffence when I moved out east. On the East Coast fish is anything in the water: shrimp, lobster, scallops, mussels, octopussy, as well as fish.
In the midwest Fish is a fucking fish but other seafood is seafood.
Do you get my point?
Lesbians like fish. All types of fish.
I heard Darcy likes fish. Darcy is such a dyke.
I have an idea for a new poll for the ladies.
ReplyDeleteWhich do you prefer:
a) a cut hog
b) an uncut hog
Hi ya, Titus.
ReplyDeleteDarcy's incurably nice.
ReplyDeleteHi Darcy.
ReplyDeleteSeriously which one of those sandwiches is a Po Boy?
Hi Ricpic. Give me a big hug you big lug.
ReplyDeleteRemember, this is only platonic. Mwaa...
ReplyDeletePo' boy.
ReplyDeleteThere was a restaurant in Burbank--a little hole in the wall called Jo Mama's--that used to serve a Po' boy pizza.
Basically, it was a thin crust of a pizza baked with very light cheese on it, and served with a tomato sauce to dip in.
Marvelous. And gone forever, alas.
Ricpic the hug will not include any physical contact below the waist. Don't worry you are safe. You may tempt me but I promise to be good during our special hug.
ReplyDeleteWho here wants Darcy?
ReplyDeleteI think I do and I am a fag. And only fags can say fag. No straighties can say fag.
Similar to the n word.
Thanks Blake.
ReplyDeletePo Boys look good.
I just gave you a hug. Hell, I even blew you a kiss. That's what the mwaa was. Don't be greedy.
ReplyDeleteA focaccio is great. It's just an open baked italian bread topped with olive oil and onion or onions and tomatoes. Wow, is it good.
Some of those sandwiches look like some of my pinches loaves.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ricpic, how sweet.
ReplyDeleteNow you can go off on me.
ricpic! Your charm is showing again.
ReplyDeleteNo Lobster Rolls?
ReplyDeleteI love Lobster Rolls.
What about a turkey club?
You forgot monte cristo.
I demand some additions to the poll.
Also don't be so selfish Troop in your sandwich selections.
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget about our vegan friends.
Where is the arugula, tomato, carrot and pepper sandwich with buffalo mozarello?
I like to think of myself as a gentleman, Darcy.
ReplyDeleteWhich excuses (in my own mind) my normal behavior.
Ya hear that, Titus?
Night all.
My best pastrami on rye was in Philadelphia the summer I was 19.
ReplyDeleteI was from Minnesota, so the local accent was a bit opaque to me. The guy behind the counter says "All?"
And I said, "Uh, yeah, I want it all." (Huh?)
He goes, "No, y'wan' aahhll?"
**click**
"Oil! Yes, oil."
He muttered something, not a blessing I think.
But damn that was a good sammitch.
PS. Titus best be nice t'Darcy else I'll sic Albert on ya!
'night, RP.
ReplyDeleteA focaccio is great. It's just an open baked italian bread topped with olive oil and onion or onions and tomatoes. Wow, is it good.
Oh, yeah. It's amazing what starting with a good bread can do. Baguette, focaccia, naan: All of these sandwiches can be ruined with a crappy bread.
Cheesesteak Wiz.
ReplyDeleteHeck I may as well wear my cheesesteak head to the game too!
Looks like too much "special sauce" on the oyster po-boy. The best choice is obvious. How can you go wrong with cheese and steak?
ReplyDeleteCan I have a grilled cheese? No? Okay, I'll take the pastrami because I love rye bread. I always order rye toast at breakfast places. I never hear anyone else do that though, so I'm puzzled as to why any of them have it.
ReplyDeleteWe're rye toasters over here, Freem.
ReplyDeleteSo, you know, you're not completely alone....
Alright!
ReplyDeleteThey must be waiting for one of our two families to show up each morning.
Pastrami, then Philly Cheese Steak
ReplyDeleteSo, you know, you're not completely alone.... he said wryly...
ReplyDeleteIn solidarity with my Philly mom, I hadda go with Geno's cheesesteak. Someone should lure Miss Elizabeth from NOLA here so she can vote for the po boy.
Aww, ricpic. Of course you are. :)
ReplyDelete*raises another hand for rye toast*
ReplyDeleteHahha, I'm late again. That fucking Titus is a vampire, no? Only shows up after us early-risers(yes Titus, that is what I'm sayin) are in the sack(oops).
ReplyDeleteBut in the spirit of an all-meat post, Titus should refer to hog as tube steak.
And my queer friends in New Orleans never minded me calling them girls. Am I abusing(oops) a relationship?
While it's not on the list, you can never go wrong with a nice juicy cheeseburger with mushrooms, pickeles and a thick grilled red onion.
ReplyDeleteWith a nice stout as well.
I would trade in the meatball parm for that cheeseburger, Hoosier Daddy.
ReplyDeleteI love making cheeseburgers. I always use lean ground chuck and mix in some chopped garlic along with cornmeal and ground red pepper flakes.
ReplyDeleteThe key is to form a perfectly uniform patty in terms of thickness. Size is secondary. You want even cooking all around. I usually grill the onion alongside and then put it on when it's just turning brown and then you top it with the cheese. And I'm not talking Kraft singles either. You want some deli quality cheese like Boarshead Colby which is one of my favorites. Lay one or two slices on top of the onion so it melts right on the patty and holds that onion in place.
I also prefer a toasted whole wheat bun slathered in olive oil mayo and horseradish mustard. Not that crappy French's stuff.
Dr. Kill, what you talking bout? I was leaving comments at 9:00 last night? That's too late?
ReplyDeleteAnd yes you can call me girl, that isn't a problem at all. Dr Kill-that is kind of a scarey name. Scarey and kind of hot.
Just don't call me a fag.
I am really horny today.
Oh, wow, Hoosier Daddy. That sounds delicious. Especially the garlic and red pepper flakes.
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me. It's lunch time!
Thanks Darcy. I love to cook. That's why I'm a cyclist. Between my love of cooking and making homemade beer I'd look like Orson Wells if I didn't ride all the time.
ReplyDeleteWhich one is the fucking Po Boy. None of those look like a Po Boy.
ReplyDeleteGet the fucking Po Boy up there now.
I want to see a Po Boy.
Give me my Po Boy.
I wouldn't mind spotting you at the gym Hoosier. Do you grunt when you work it?
I am sorry but none of those sandwiches look like they have any fish in them.
ReplyDeleteThis must be a mistake.
Fix it, NOW!
I want to see a Po Boy.
I wouldn't mind spotting you at the gym Hoosier. Do you grunt when you work it?
ReplyDeleteThanks Titus. A spot is always welcome. Nothing worse than getting pinned on the bench press and no one is around.
Except when they're around and are laughing at you.
Just keep your package intact. I don't want balls flying in my face.
ReplyDeleteThat's why I don't play tennis.
The last sandwich is an oyster po-boy as made in NOLA.
ReplyDeleteI guess the special sauce is what makes it look like someone pinched off a loaf between two slices of bread.
Plus I know you Titus. You hate fish. That's why you scorn the fish taco.
ReplyDeleteHi Titus, thanks for asking. We woulda made good running mates back before I hit the wheelchair. next time you're in town I have a few uncut hog questions to ask you. I need a few straight answers, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteI love fish Troop. I am having crab tacos tonight-for real.
ReplyDeletethat bottom picture looks like meat not fish.
ReplyDeletei am pretty good at identifying meat too.
