I picked “other” because I like all four choices in the poll, without any clear favorite. But they really do have to be Lil Smokies to make me happy.
There’s a relavent poll here. I don’t use the term “pigs in a blanket” because it has at least three correct meanings. To me, it’s a sausage in a pancake, but I’ve also heard it used for cabbage rolls.
Ah, a favorite childhood meal. For me, it’s gotta be a Hebrew National hotdog split down the middle with strips of american cheese (not cheese food), wrapped in a Bisquik dough, with a slice of bacon wrapped around the package. Bake at 350 degrees for about 45-60 minutes or until the bacon is dark and crispy and the Bisquik is cooked through. Nirvana.
^^^ This!
I’m indifferent to them, and I’ve never had them with biscuit dough.
Mom made them with bacon wrapped around hot dogs, no cheese or dough in sight. I have no idea where she got that from. I don’t make them, but I think bacon would improve the ones I’ve had at parties.
I like them with the sausages on one plate and the buttermilk pancakes on another.
Stoid, I think that’s called “pigs who kicked off their blankets.”
Good one!
Seconded or whatever it’s up to by now…
Despite being Minnesota, born and bred, I’ve never had them with cheese, but yours is an opinion—nay, a fundamental BELIEF—with which I must agree.
I would like to add that I also put a chopped up Snickers Bar in a crescent roll for a poor man’s chocolate croissant. This is the dessert for after you finish off the piggie, the blanket and the sheet (or whatever we are naming the cheese).
Another one for sausage wrapped in a pancake.
Poll from last year showing 21% said they were breakfast sausage in a pancake.
About 10%(many Polish, etc.) said it was a cabbage roll.
Pigs in a blanket is breakfast sausages wrapped in pancakes covered in maple syrup.
Any other definition is plain simple crazy talk.
I will now declaim the poem I say every time we have pancakes, while the kids roll their eyes and laugh:
Roses are red
Violets are purple
Sugar is sweet
And so’s maple surple.
And butter. Don’t forget the butter.
Just had some not too long ago at Little Home Bakery in Bangkok, a local chain. Very good.
Normally, I’d agree with this statement. But not here. Crescent roll, no cheese. And Omar Little is right; you need the little smokies.
I thought the only way to make them was chipolata sausages wrapped in streaky bacon.
No idea that there were variations - you live and learn.
My elementary school used to make them with some sort of yeast roll dough, which was heavenly. Voted “other”
How much does maple syrup set you back in Thailand? Or do they have “pancake syrup”?
