Budweiser (American) is the King of beers because of its virtues. It is light, clean with no skunky aftertaste, crisp and best from a tap or long-neck bottle. It should be served cold, but this amplifies the flavor and aroma of the hops. Bud gives the best head in beer. The only Eurobeer I find that I like is DAB, and it was always tough to find fresh here.
If I can't find Bud or O'Fallon Gold, MGD will suffice.
Michael Jackson reference?
Red Beans and Rice.
Jambalaya
Chiles Relleno
Chicken Fried Steak
Peach cobbler, chili mac, french fried zucchini with ranch dressing, watermelon, green beans with bacon and potatoes, jalapeno cornbread, chocolate chip cookies, apple fritters, catfish and hushpuppies...
So how does Luby's take the sirloin part of the cow and suck the flavor out of it? Or do they buy their sides of beef pre-sucked?
Uh-oh . . . what's different about the bacon? Pinging Bacon Man for obvious personal interest reasons.
Sorry, I couldn't resist the terrible joke.
Oh please...A Brit criticizing food in America? This from the country of blood sausage and mushy peas? I'll agree we often go overboard in terms of portion size. As for choice, I'd rather have too many options than not enough.
Bud is the king of beers because it is the lowest common denominator. It isn't too dark, too light, too flavorful nor too bland.
It's the vanilla of beers.
Good question! The bacon fiend needs to know! :-P
Laugh - y'all are TOO funny...
Basically they're bacon is more like canadian bacon - I think they call our bacon.. the more fatty stuff "streaky bacon"
But it also isn't smoked like ours... so it's not as flavorful...
Course you all may have known this and I'm taking this all too seriously... hahahaha
I love food threads
I think the author needs to come back here and eat at Tony's in Birch Run MI. She could get a 1 lb. BLT. That is some good food!!
Looks like I won't be taking her out on a date. ;)
Canadian bacon!? That's not bacon, that's more like fried ham. Not that there's anything wrong with ham but it's certainly not bacon. Bacon should be hickory smoked, encrusted with black pepper, have ribbons of fat in it and be about the thickness of a CD case. You know it's really good bacon if after frying about a pound of it, you have enough grease left over to lube an SUV's suspension.
Great, now I'm hungry. :)
I like fish, but tentacles, raw fish and slugs aren't what I want for dinner.
I do believe that England and Ireland hold the world's record for 2,755 ways to make potatoes....I don't want potatoes daily, I don't even like french fries.
I believe a study on farmer's markets, fresh markets and fabulous simple restaurants would help our English party find out we have great selections and simplicity is best.
Not everyone likes to eat at Ryans, or those tasteless fill up joints.
yep - you've got it on the bacon - I LOVE real bacon...
It is rather like ham over there.. It was the lack of taste the I found yucky.. laugh..
And a little homemade vanilla ice cream with the cobbler! Lordy, Ah'm gittin' hungry!
I made a homemade fudge filled turtle cheesecake for a police picnic the other day. They were small slices, and believe me they could not eat more than one slice. You're very right about cheesecake being filling. One slice is all you need when it's so rich.
When I used to sell them to bakeries, people would buy them whole sometimes instead of by the slice. I know they didn't eat the whole thing in one sitting lol..
