Hi there!

I don't understand the concept of deep frying a good piece of steak in chicken batter with white gravy, that kinda defeats the purpose of a well made steak.
Also, the Colorado entry is confusing, many people have never heard of cowboy cookies, so I would replace that with beer, say New Belgium Brewery options.

      As an adopted Texan, I agere; brisket is awesome.



     As a native Ohioan, I've never had Cincinatti chili, nor does it sound that good....



     As a NorthCoaster, this is my favorite native dish....



     Friday perch fillets, with a side of spaghetti, served in the basement of the Catholic church....MONEY!

     Of course, as a good Baptist, I faunched for this, as well....




     Hold the potato salad on mine, please.

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

Chicken Fried Steak is a very tasty dish,actually,made from a well-tenderized piece of meat. I don't know who first decided to batter it but I must applaud them. Wink

Of course,being a Texan I also adore a nice Ribeye steak.  Thumbup

Just had to offer this, as a native Pennsylvanian: while the cheesesteak is good, it truly depends upon the roll. Amoroso Baking offers the best roll for it.

Also, Scrapple is superb. Nothing says great breakfast than a giant fried hunk of meat made out of pig intestines and everything else. If you can find scrapple, eat it.

When I was in Maine I thought their beach-side lobster bakes were cruel because instead of plunging the lobsters into hot water, which is a fairly quick if not necessarily pleasant death, they'd slowly steam them under wet canvas blankets, leaving them alive for sometimes a quarter-hour. The lobsters would writhe and keep trying to crawl away and someone had the job of tipping them back into the pile of seaweed and moss until they finally quit moving. Nobody seemed to think anything about that but I thought it was appalling.

Not being a native Texan, but having lived here over half of my life, the operative word is "well-tenderized." The chicken fried steak is not the tenderest steak from the animal. Thus, the tenderizing, the battering, and the cream gravy makes the steak more edible. And it is good. And I might add, that a "true" cafe cook would serve the cream gravy UNDER the steak, as opposed to a "faux" cafe cook who would serve the cream gravy OVER the steak. Though, I don't know if any cafe cook serves it the "true" way any more.

Yeah. Oink intestines are bad enough...
Scrapple should be a character name. In a sports flick of course.

Ummmm...seared cow meat...

Only the head, heart, liver, bones, fat, and whatever scraps are left. Once cooked, the bones and fat get removed, and corn meal is added. A loaf is made, and it's sold and eaten.

Hmmm....I've never had the steak served on the bottom. Knowing me,I'd probably eat it either way. TeddyR

What I've eaten on this list.  Fun right?

Deep dish pizza from Chicago.  It's delicious if done right.  Best I've had was actually in Chicago, BTW.
Crabcake - Bleh, not a fan.
Peach cobbler - Good if done right.
Gumbo - I like it.  Not my fave.
Key lime pie - Not bad.
Fried green tomatoes - They're fried tomatoes.  Meh.
Hot weiners - yum.
Pulled pork BBQ - I like it, but pulled chicken is better.
Clam chowder - blah.
KC/Memphis ribs - Yeah, they are the same thing.  But they're both DELICIOUS.
Chimichanga - Love 'em!
Frozen custard - St. Louis actually has really great frozen custard!
Texas brisket - Not my favorite BBQ, but good.
Fried Okra - Gross.
NY Style pizza - Maybe my favorite food in the world is Lombardi's pizza.
Hot Hawaii - Spam is awful.
Fried catfish - I don't like any fish, and catfish is stronger than most.  So no go.
Maple syrup - delicious
Corndog - I hate corndogs.  Gross.
Cowboy cookie - not my favorite.
Mud pie - Best thing in Mississippi.
Bratwurst - Yum.
Virginia ham - Good.
Chicken fried steak - Stupid name, OK food.
Hamburger casserole.  Rather just have a burger.
Michigan pasty - Grew up in Michigan, but you really don't see these very often.  They're pretty good, like shepard's pie.
Salt water taffy  - yum.
Steamed cheeseburger - no like.

Also, I want to try traditional akutaq. I think it sounds delicious.

If you can find it mixed with blubber or seal fat instead of the Crisco, then that is the actual traditional way to go. Shortening is the quicker and easier method to make it with, but it loses its cultural identity a bit going that route.
