The dish, a specialty of Mulligan's, a suburban bar, is a hot dog wrapped by a beef patty that's deep fried, covered with chili, cheese and onions and served on a hoagie bun. Oh yeah, it's also topped with a fried egg and two fistfuls of fries.

To quote Ron White, "I didn't get to where I am today, worrying about what I was going to feel like tomorrow!"

Grits gives a woman child bearin' hips.

Her child-bearin' was all over 'n done a'fore she learned to eat grits proper. But better late than never.

Nice website... can't eat just one :grin:

[Veto!]

"Luther Burger," a bacon-cheeseburger served on a Krispy Kreme doughnut bun, are what draw attention.

Wow! Sounds even yummier than deep-fried Twinkies ala mode.

[Veto!]

coffee in gravy? I like bourbon instead.

Another Ron White classic is when he talks about his wife's cooking. He had to tell her the smoke alarm is not a timer. The food is done before the smoke alarm goes off.

"Throw in a weekend-long party with every Southern food imaginable--along with endzone seats to the LSU-Ole Miss game--and I was in heaven!"


You're right...absolute heaven...if you live in BR,
and are an Ole Miss fan. ;o)
I was born and raised in MS, but I used to live in
Baton Rouge, and N'Awlins.

"I haven't had a decent chicken fried steak since I left Texas."


My in-laws are in Texas.
You can keep looking for a better chicken fried steak,
but don't be dissapointed if you don't find it.
There is none better than Texas chicken fried steak.

To keep it healthy, order it with the gravy on the side.
It's good for dipping, too. ;o)

"They advertise "real southern barbecue" but it ain't even close."


Believe it, or not, I found a good MS BBQ place here.
The owner is from Magnolia, MS, and fixes some fine BBQ.

I miss the Southern vegetables more than anything, though.

"Golden Corral if you can imagine that"


I can imagine that.
They are all over the South.
They know good food when they see it. ;o)

I'm very glad you had a good meal.

I think that Hamdog sounds pretty good. May have to make a trip down to GA just for that.
