Flying out tomorrow to have Thanksgiving with the Grand Kids. I am going to have to highly suggest we stop at In-N-Out so that Grandpa can experience one of California's most famous foods. Or maybe if we can find our way to Pink's! Kind of like when I was in Chicago for my Son and Daughter-in-laws wedding, going to Portillo's!😀 Three great places. Two in California.

Haven't been to that location, but have been to Jeff Ruby Cincinnati and The Precinct several times (once for an anniversary, the rest on the company dime....only way to do it). Pricey? Oh lord yes. Figure a Franklin minimum per person. Worth it? Easily the best steak I've had in my life. Atmosphere and the menu is complete old-school NYC/Chicago steakhouse. You're not getting a couple ounces of some designer organic "Insert Cool Trendy Name here" slices scattered on a plate that is filled up with stuff the cow would have eaten. You're getting nice big hunks of aged, USDA prime beef. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Not necessarily a best of state. But rather best peanut butter. Inspired by posts in the general basketball thread. 35 Top Peanut Butter Brands Ranked for Nutrition Been a Skippy Creamy fan since childhood. Some six decades, plus now. Wife is an Adams Natural Crunchy fan. Needless to say. We are a two peanut butter family. What's your favorite peanut butter, and style ?

mrflynn03 Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Anything natural and chunky. Only brand I've not liked much is skippy. Liked the peanut butter and crackers they put in mre's good lightweight snack when hunting, fishing, or hiking. Plus, somebody had to eat up the Y2K supply before it expired.

When I was young, there were not many alternatives to Skippy. Something I have never given up. Though I realize there are better choices out there now.

Only problem with that, is that is where they keep the nuts. Which are a healthy snack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the best grilled cheese in this commonwealth comes from my kitchen. Cast iron pan. Medium high heat. Let warm for 5 mins. Preheat oven to 450. Thick cut Sourdough. Spread cream cheese on the inside of each piece. Fill with one slice each of American, Swiss and Mozzarella (or Muenster/Havarti for a more sophisticated audience. But let's get real....90% of the time you're making grilled cheese, it's either for kids or drunk adults, so sophisticated can take a hike.) Cover the outside of each piece with butter....the real stuff (get outta here with that margarine #$&%). Griddle each side until golden brown. Place skillet in preheated oven for 2-3 minutes. Cut. Eat. Pairs well with damn near anything. Caution: can be habit forming. Not good for cardiovascular system. Eat more than one and you may not #$&% for 3-4 days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've introduced many people to this place...not a very big place, the line is always out the door, and it's not in a great neighborhood, but everyone I've ever taken there wants to go back...if you like it spicy, get the "wet hots" on it... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel there often, and use to be every time a local told me about "the best cheese steak in Philly" I'd try it. After a while, I determined the the 2 biggest names in Philly cheese steak, Pat's King of Steak and Geno's, which actually sit on opposite corners of the X shaped intersection at 9th and Passyunk are my favorites. They became famous for a reason. Plus, if you're lucky enough to be around when someone comes to either one of their windows and don't know what they want, it can be quite entertaining. I always go to whichever one has the shortest line... I had people tell me the same thing about BBQ in Kansas City when I said I wanted to go to Arthur Bryant's. Like I said, the place got famous for a reason...and didn't disappoint me at all.. Edited December 26, 2019 by IUFLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 A Pat's vs Geno's debate makes the Skyline vs Gold Star arguments I've witnessed seem downright civil....and I've seen blood spilled over that. #philly #dodgethebatteries 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
