i never cared for the sloppy joes made with ground meat, but now i am hankering for a chipped ham bbq! yeah, we have klondikes here in VA too. i didn’t even know isaly’s made a sauce, i thought everyone just made their own! which isaly’s did you go to? we went to both the one in Monroeville and the one in Oakmont. my grandma lived in Verona, PA.

We used to go to the Isaly's that was next to Kroger's which was in the old Fox Chapel Village shopping center.
I don't know if it's still there or not because that's the side of the road where Claber's (was on the other side of Kroger's) became Busy Beaver, but they changed and tore down a lot of that when they built the Waterworks Mall. Fox Chapel PLAZA was on the other side of FC Road. I think that one is pretty much the same but the stores have changed. Only that's not the one where we went to Isaly's anat.
Isaly's made their own Chipped Ham BBQ, only it was more expensive than the plain chipped ham so we didn't buy it much. I can't remember them selling the sauce separate.... maybe they did... or maybe that's something "new" they started sometime in the last 30 years or so since I grew up. LOL!
When I was growing up in Ohara Twp, we had an "Isaly" family living nearby.... I forget the kids names... they were all 4~8 years younger than me so my younger siblings knew them better than I did. But they lived within normal "Trick or Treat" range of our house and gave away Klondike bars on Halloween!!!
Now THAT was a special treat that EVERYBODY liked... except you had to eat it right away so it didn't melt in your Trick-or-Treat bag.... and even then, a lot of kids wound up with awful sticky hands and faces under those plastic Halloween masks... LOL!
