Heinz House of Parliament Sauce (HP) on chips.I recommend Heinz 57 sauce.
Isn’t this a British thing — Heinz 57 on “chips”?
Which leads me to this: Whenever I go to a fish-and-chips place, I see folks sprinkling malt vinegar on the fish and putting ketchup on the chips. That’s all fine and well, I suppose, but the vinegar is actually meant for the chips. Oh, bollocks!
, I would recommend that you lurk quietly in and out of Memphis BBQ joints without asking for ketchup based BBQ sauce (said the native Tennessean).
I'm confused here....I'm pretty sure Memphis BBQ is tomato based.....as opposed to Eastern Carolina BBQ which is all cider vinegar.
I believe HP sauce is closer to our A-1 sauce.
I am the only person I've ever known who uses Heinz 57 on fries, but I never ever use it on a steak.
I know shepherd's pie, but what the he!! is "cold meat salad?"
This has indeed been one of my favorite "off topic" threads of the year!
Stick Meat: Walking around in a foreign port during the day with cats everywhere. Later at night the cats are gone and vendors are cooking up some meat on a stick.

I spit up my coffee a little. From now on, I will refer to hot dogs as "stick meat". It is genius. "Here is what is wrong, there are too few stick meats in this world. You have your frankfurter stick meats and you have your..."

View attachment 2334 Here it is.I did have pulled pork in Alabama that was served with some kind of mayonnaise sauce.
No, it's real. A couple years ago my son and I met up in B'ham and went to the Bama/10erSee game. While waiting in the airport to fly home, I picked up a shot glass for my daughter's collection and a bottle of Alabama White Sauce for my wife. She was not impressed.View attachment 2334 Here it is.I did have pulled pork in Alabama that was served with some kind of mayonnaise sauce.
So it really wasn't just a faulty memory.
She was not impressed.
That sparks memories of a port visit to Athens - our only liberty port during a 6 month Beirut float. A few of us took a trip well out of the city into non-english speakingville and were having a "Mixed Grill". Sadly, another diner who did speak our language filled us in AFTER we'd eaten most of our meal.Stick Meat: Walking around in a foreign port during the day with cats everywhere.

We’re sailors. We eat that stuff up. Literally. My rule of thumb was, “I’ll try anything once, but do not tell me what it is before I eat it.”
