Superbowl menu suggestions?

Frank Warner · 2006-01-30T19:44:28+00:00

The superbowl is a big food day at my house. We usually like to feature foods from the home towns of the two competing teams. Seattle is easy: Seafood and something "starbuckian." But what about Pittsburgh? What food or dish is Pittsburgh famous for? Egads. The only thing I can think of is Goodyear rubber. =0 I'm stumped! -Frank -- Here's some of my work: http://www.franksknives.com/

LOL - Except Goodyear was (is?) in Akron, OH. Pittsburgh is known for its
steel factories. I think they also have a large Polish population - so
perhaps kielbasa?

*BBQ Sauced* chipped ham sandwiches ;-) It's hard finding the
right BBQ sauce to go with them in these parts, though. I have a
secret source here in austin called Green Mesquite BBQ sauce.
Taste just like the Isaly's I remember.

Yep. Barton Springs Road 🙂
This stuff is in the same league. Put it on chipped ham, burnt ends,
etc. Get medium or mild, not hot. It's one of the best.

Heinz is from Pittsburgh, so why not feature some Heinz products?

That's a good one, Stan! Too funny.
Don't they have those Primati Bros sandwiches there? Fries
right on the sandwich, good place for ketchup, I'd say.

Hmm, I could have sworn I've seen the E&J sauce on the shelves
someplace recently.
The thing about the GM sauce it's pretty unique in terms of flavor
and texture - fairly mild, non-sweet. As a BBQ sauce it's just
ho-hum boring, but as soon as I tasted it visions of chipped ham
sandwiches floated danced through my head. "I'll have 2 jars of
this to go".
They actually have the sauce locked up in a cupboard on the wall.
I guess there's a lot of poor Isaly's fans in Austin.
I'll check out the E&J sauce next time I see it.

Don't know what you're missing. The secret is to buy the
cheap-assed "chopped ham" ($1.99/lb) and slice it translucent
thin. Doesn't work with the regular deli or roast-sized
baked/boiled hams.
On cheap, soft, white, unseeded hamburger buns ($.59/8).

One of the secret ingredients: a hint of liquid smoke. Goes
great with ham.

beverages.....
By the way, Primanti's sandwiches include cole slaw and fries on the
sandwich. My favorite? Corned beef and swiss...........hmmm.....may have
