Excuse me Sir Winston...

Just remember that if you are ushered into the presence of the guy who cooks all that bbq wonderfulness, you are to kneel, avert your eyes, and kiss his ring as if it were the last cock your lips would ever get touch.

*snicker*

Oh yeah, I can totally see Keroin doing this. In Texas. Right after she eats a McRib sandwich.

 

[HottieMama]

I really don't like real BBQ. I am probably the one person I know that dislikes Arthur Bryants. the McRib is just "special." There's something about it that makes it delicious.

 

[graceanne]

I know this is going to probably get me run out of here on a rail, but I can hold my silence no longer.

I think McRibs are gross, you wouldn't catch me eating a fish sandwich OF ANY SORT OR BRAND (I only like fresh fish and I don't like it breaded) and I think BBQ sauce and ketchup are the nastiest foods ALIVE.

*deep breath*

Okay, I feel better. Carry on.

I'll bet I could put some Blues Hog BBQ sauce on a cookie and you'd like it. But, maybe you're already sweet enough?

You're not the only one who doesn't like Bryants. I know some here in Kansas City who don't care for it. Shocking, I know, but true. It does happen. But, if you prefer McRib over ANY real BBQ, you're just weird.

You're in KC???? *waves up from Wichita.* I don't like the taste of smoked meat. I also do not like the taste of things cooked on a grill. That eliminates a lot of "real BBQ" for me.

I knew you were in Wichita. You didn't know I'm in Kansas City? And it is kind of scary that you're in Kansas and don't like food cooked on a grill. Too bad.

If I did know at one point, I forgot. In my defense for not liking grilled food, I'm not originally from here. Lived in Phila PA for the first 25 yrs of my life, spent 5 yrs in Nor Cal, and have been here going on 5. I'm still "getting used to" the midwest...LOL. (I'm not sure I can...)

 

[JMohegan]

Ha! I was just teasing with that comment. I know who our suplier is. Where they get their product....well, it's not on a flyer they send out to the stores like they do with advertising.

Honestly, I wasn't trying to push McD (though the boost to my profit sharing I'm not going to cry over), I just remember Sir W mentioning last year that Mcribs were out for nearly two whole weeks before he knew that they had come back, and they don't stay around long (I think it's 6 weeks this year, but don't quote me on that), so I thought I'd mention it this year. And since I know others here enjoy it, I posted a thread instead of sending a PM. That, and well, I'm not shy about my attention whoring.

If not caring where McD buys their processed live stock from makes me a bad person, well then I'm a bad person. But I'm not going to loose sleep over it. Like I said, it pays the bills, and in the end, keeping a roof over my head and food in my belly is the most important thing to me.

Do you think it makes you a bad person? Every one of us supports the torture of animals in one form or another - including me. I ask myself the same question, and console myself with the thought that there are differences of degree.

Ever heard of gestation crates? Top of the list of reasons I don't eat factory farm pigs.

But I do have big leather chairs in my den, and didn't ask about the lives of the cows before I bought their skin. If there really is a Day of Reckoning, we'll all have hell to pay.

The great Kansas flat lands. A life long friend of mine is buried in Mulvane. At least eastern Kansas has some hills. I live on the tallest hill of my county, a block or so from the top and not far from the cell towers. Bad thing about that is I'm right in line for KCI (MCI) in bound and out bound flights. Some drunk pilot could pretty much ruin my whole day.

25 years in Philadelphia? So, dare I ask if you like Philly cheese steaks?

More important: Cheez Whiz or Provolone?

 

[Sir_Winston54]

More important: Cheez Whiz or Provolone?

That cannot be a serious question.

 

[DVS]

The below is from Wikipedia, here ==> "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheesesteak"

Philadelphia Inquirer restaurant critic Craig LaBan says "Provolone is for aficionados, extra-sharp for the most discriminating among them." Geno's late owner, Joey Vento, said, "We always recommend the provolone. That's the real cheese."

Cheez Whiz, first marketed in 1952, was not yet available for the original 1930 version, but has spread in popularity. A 1986 New York Times article called Cheez Whiz "the sine qua non of cheesesteak connoisseurs." In a 1985 interview, Pat Olivieri's nephew Frank Olivieri said that he uses "the processed cheese spread familiar to millions of parents who prize speed and ease in fixing the children's lunch for the same reason, because it is fast." Cheez Whiz is "overwhelmingly the favorite" at Pat's, outselling runner-up American by a ratio of eight or ten to one, while Geno's claims to go through eight to ten cases of Cheez Whiz a day.

Personally, I prefer a white American and Provolone combination. Cheez Whiz? Really? What's wrong with those people? "...because it is fast?" How can they desecrate such a culinary treasure?


YUMMM!

Forgive me JM, I was feeling a bit off and reacted harshly towards you.

I don't really believe it makes me a bad person.

 

[midwestyankee]

Oh, it's a very serious question.

In fact, one of those small but telling and damaging moments happened to John Kerry in Philly when he ordered a cheesesteak with Swiss cheese - not even on the menu. GW Bush went there and ordered his with Whiz and onions - just like a local might.

Obama - and his wife, Michelle - both ordered cheesesteaks with Whiz when campaigning there in 2008.

In other words, Whiz wins, at least politically!

Whiz absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jeebus, I fucking love cheesesteaks. Yet another one of those not healthy foods that is just fabulous.

This sounds so utterly disgusting that it must be delicious.

I fully expect McD to introduce a Whiz McRib.

 

[graceanne]

I'll bet I could put some Blues Hog BBQ sauce on a cookie and you'd like it. But, maybe you're already sweet enough?

Well, I'm pretty sweet, but I can guarantee I would not even eat a cookie with barbeque sauce on it. K LOVES barbeque and grilling (and I like grilled food). If there was any way I'd eat barbeque sauce, we'd have found it by now. Normally he puts barbeque sauce on everyone else's food, and just salts and peppers mine.

Cheese Whiz is not cheese. It's cheese flavored stuff. I'm a cheese snob, though. lol Crackers are just there to get the cheese to your mouth.

Zucchini?
Zwieback?
Ziti?
Mozzarella?

 

[Keroin]

I don't care about the zed. I just won't eat anything with the word "whiz" in it.

Say it out loud, it makes more sense.

 

[Keroin]

...while watching the performing whale show at the aquarium.

Yep...that'll happen.

The original Blues Hog sauce is a sweet sauce, with a honey or molasses thickness. It's not an often favorite of mine, but it has its moments. I know people who actually put it on ice cream. Nope, not your normal BBQ sauce. Of course, you MUST like sweet sauce to like this stuff.

I agree with you about the cheese whiz, but like the Blues Hog, it does have its moments. And in its defense, it does have some cheese in it. And for those couch potatoes who run out of crackers while watching TV? No need to force yourself up off that comfy spot to find more. Cheese whiz has its own vehicle built in. It does need a bit of aiming, though. While I would try it, just to see what it tastes like, I really think I'll stick to my choice of provolone on a Philly steak. Cheese whiz seems to cheapen the whole thing for me.


Anybody said cheese whiz fast, 5 times? It eventually comes out gee whiz. OK, I don't know the significance of that...maybe there isn't any. Maybe that's something for the boredom thread?

Sorry, never heard of zwieback. Oh, wait a minute...yes I have!

Push em back, push em back, zwieback! Push em back, push em back, zwieback! I know...I know. Take it to the boredom thread.
