Logan D. Hurricanes Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I'm not a big hot dog guy, but I would try those. Mostly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I'm not generally a hot dog guy. There are a few circumstances in which I consider hot dogs to be acceptable food: Cooked over a fire (campfire or grill) At a baseball game Breaded in cornmeal, fried, and served on a stick Chopped up and mixed into mac and cheese with the kids Other than that, I'll generally pass. "Gourmet hot dogs"? Oxymoron, as far as I'm concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I haven't heard about that place until reading the newspaper today, so I will leave a couple of reviews.

unclevlad Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I don't see going for many of the Umai dogs; that place Cygnia mentioned, on the other hand...have it your way. I could go for that. I don't do dogs or brats any more, simply because I don't buy white bread/rolls. I'll grab a Green Chile Double at Whataburger from time to time...but that's once. Dogs, I'm usually looking at 2 of em, and that's just too many carbs. Plus, even the better hot dogs are pretty bad...high in several things you don't want. I do chicken sausages...Applegate, quite often, but they've gotten expensive...on a better, whole grain/seeds bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaJoe3 Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Last weekend I made a chocolate cake, but was distracted and left out the sugar. While I don't think I'll do it again, it wasn't bad with vanilla yogurt on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 One of my first times making cookies (I was eleven) I forgot the flour mixture. Oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 My earliest baking incident involved getting teaspoons and tablespoons mixed up for the salt. They were incredibly salty, but I was a kid and they were cookies so I ate them anyway. Yes, I got incredibly sick. I'll never understand why my grandmother let the baking continue with such an obvious mistake. As an adult I came to learn that she was a horrible cook and probably didn't realize the error herself.

Pariah Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 The first time I made bread on my own, I used hot water ... boiling water, actually. I killed the yeast. I ended up making a bread-flavored brick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt the Bruins Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Ugh, when I was in college a local steakhouse had a 4 lb. chicken fried steak and a friend of mine ordered it one evening. He made a valiant effort, but it was like the Ol' '96er from The Great Outdoors with a lot of gristle and fat buried under the breading and he couldn't finish it.

unclevlad Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 I got pretty darn good at chicken parmesan. (Hint: season the flour...salt, ground pepper, garlic powder, and season the bread crumbs...dried oregano and basil...separately.) I pulled off a very nice chicken piccata a couple of times. Both are breaded...piccata often more lightly. But chicken fried steak is an abomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnia Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 I'm partial to the piccata recipe from Alton Brown myself. Tjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the very few things I enjoyed from my time living in Arizona was a good Chicken Fried Steak smothered in white or brown gravy and warm biscuits. Since returning to the East Coast I find it as unable to find here as I did good Pizza or Chinese food out there. Perhaps your experience with the dish is simply a cultural thing.
