The Most Sensual of the Salted, Cured Meats

Relax. A ketchup coating on the holiday Brisket is one of the most widespread, if not palatable, Jewish-American culinary habits of the late 20th century. My father-in-law swears by it.

  1. I had a relevant question.
  2. I didn’t notice the dates.
  3. The tone of the thread (not too serious) appeals to me.
  4. I’m a bit of a “goofball”. (Your word…)
  5. To bug you. (I mean, as a moderator, what else would you be doing? You should be thanking me.)

I could go on, but I think that’s enough for now.

BTW, I still haven’t tasted Pastrami. I’m not sure when I will. I want to save that experience for the right time. You know, when I’m ready…

Pardon me, I’m too impatient (and now, hungry) to read the whole thread. What is the thread’s title an allusion to? I know I’ve seen this…

To the OP

Smithfield Country Ham. Cooked by me. Sliced thin. Served on my hot(homemade by me) biscuits. With/or without light buttering.

[I will accept those who brought up prosciutto, awarding them second place].

I’m picturing a threesome with jcg20 and samclem. Don’t mind me. Back to your sandwiches.

Aha! Just saw the Seinfeld where George is eating sandwiches in bed. I knew it sounded familiar. (Someone had mentioned Seinfeld before, but I couldn’t put my finger on which episode–so many episodes focus on food, after all.)

I figured he did it to make me adjust my thread-kill record down one. Unless of course, I manage to kill it again with this post.

Sorry Bumbazine.

Last time this thread was going around, I had to go out to Langers for the Number 1.
(See item 9 on this page: http://www.jewishjournal.com/archive/08.04.00/travel.08.04.00.html )
The number 1 is hand cut Langers pastrami, on twice baked rye (warm and soft in the middle, with a crunchy crust), with russian dressing and coleslaw.
Now I have to go to Langers again today, for the Number 1.
And it’s only 10am, and I’m drooling, and my stomach is growling.
