Best Barbecue in America comes from New York!

[ladder13]

Well, heck we've finally found out where it comes from....Georgeja, Texas, Oklahomie, Missouri, North Carolina, Florida, Virginia, Kansas, Norleans. Thanks for clearing that all up.

Aye... I know some people from the east swear
by it, it would not be my cup of tea.
I don't really like vinegar, and I sure don't
like mustard. Mix the two together, and to me,
it equals yuk..

I guess being a Texas molds you into accepting
what bar-b-q is..
But to this Texan, Bar-b-q with vinegar and
mustard? That #$%@ ain't right.

All my Bar-b-q uses the varying shades of red
sauce.. And if brisket, it won't be applied
while cooking. The sauce is applied as a
condiment while eating if needed.
This rule is sort of akin to the one where
Texans never put beans in chili while cooking.

I like sliced beef bar-b-q sandwiches..
If they sent me one out with mustard and
vinegar on it, yuk..
I'm not keen on eating alien food groups.

And yes, true chicken fried steak must have
cream gravy or it ain't right.
Course, you can make country fried steaks
with gravy that is not quite cream gravy.
Will end up more of a gray brown color.
That is totally acceptable. But! that's not the
same as true chicken fried steak.
BTW, true chicken fried steak... yummm.

Let's face it fellas; none of us has really met any food that we couldn't somehow manage to choke down if we really had to

(BTW: It's the reason I know how to cook today)

I've eaten some weird foods in odd places., ezspecially in my travels across Indochina. Knew many who wouldn't even try much of it.

I'll take that as a statement of fact.

I believe I do justice to my meals. Missus Smithfan says I'm just fat.

Now we turn to chicken fried steak (or country fried if that's your pleasure), I like it both ways, cream gravy or brown. My Dad uses the cream gravy (w/sausage) as he does for biskets & gravy. Makes for good eats.

The best barbecue I've ever eaten was at a place named Texas Red's in Park City, Utah.

Well, this thread is great! I was in Europe for the last two weeks, but I did read the article in the Syracuse "sub-standard" online. The Dinosaur IS Memphis style BBQ, so Memphis, in a way, does get "props" for this. The Dinosaur is the best BBQ I have ever had, but hey, I need to get out more. Last week I had ribs in a cozy little restaurant in Lisse, Holland. Really just an appetizer, it was an excuse to drink some excellent Euro-beer!
Speaking of the Dinosaur and Blues, may I take this moment to tell you about a really nice guy and great Blues player, Roosevelt Dean? He lived in the ghetto of the south side of Syracuse, and quite often played live at the Dinosaur. He became more popular, started recording albums and touring all over. I got to be his friend by working security at a late night diner where he would show up. He battled cancer for the last few years, and finally lost to it several weeks ago. I keep his CD, "Somewhere 'round Georgia" in my vehicle because it is great travelling music. Roosevelt, my next drink at the Dinosaur will be raised in your honor, mah man.

And just to show you guys how much I need to get out more, the best tasting chicken fried steak I ever had was at a Denny's in Maine.

LET"S DO ANOTHER GET TOGETHER AT THE DINOSAUR!!! WITH MOAR PEEPLE....ON A SATURDAY!!!

Oh, by the way, we also have the best college Lacrosse, Sausage-peppers-onions sandwiches, and Syracuse wins the golden snowball just about every year.

We can also brag that we are the absolute, number one, top of the heap, MOST restrictive state in the union. Overall, not just gun rights, but we got plenty of gun laws, too. How is it that Lady Liberty hasn't swam away in disgust? Shoot, I gotta put some more scotch in my cheerios...
