FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[ghenges]

The meatballs + grape jelly + chili sauce is great. I only learned about it a few months ago when a co-worker brought it in as a pot luck dish.

NT is a little sheltered

 

[spizike231]

Yeah the lil smokies are good in it too

 

[jrp44]

Yeah I think the main one I seen is grape jelly+chilli sauce with the little meatballs or Smokies

Perfect party snack food

 

[Mark Antony]

Yeah I looked forward to that at potluck in before times. Especially if they threw some pineapple in that *****.

 

[mplsdunk]

I never heard of the jelly fruit hotdog madness in my life.

Now I’m mad all you guys are acting like it’s some regular thing at a party.

 

[Mark Antony]

Might be a regional thing, ie south.

Go get you some tiny glizzys and the other needed necessities papi

Let me know if it ranks center-tier when it comes to crock pot potluck foods

 

[Mark Antony]

Actually got curious about the origin of the meatballs. I'm assuming they came first and the smokies are a variant.

The History of Grape Jelly Cocktail Meatballs

Just like dump cake, I first tried this recipe at a work potluck. It was while I was working as a visual merchandiser for a retail chain. My friend and co-worker at the time brought these meatballs…

Yeah I don't remember it as a kid in NY. First heard of it in NC

 

[Mark Antony]

lmao, I just read this again

[mplsdunk]

I’m not making grape glizzys but I might make the meatballs to try it.

I’ve lived in va, ny and mn and never seen them. But it’s not like I was going up to the crockpot as a kid asking the ingredients either.

When’s the last time yall went to Macaroni Grill? They took them out of MD. Had a few friends that worked there in high school.

 

[mplsdunk]

Long time, we don’t have any here anymore.

I was in Reno this past weekend and actually seen a Macaroni Grill.

My wife yelled that they didn’t sell macaroni and cheese and we walked away

Why is it that everytime I give a good review of a fast food place…. Best compliments & all on the mobile app.

The next time I go, I get a Luke warm sammich??



Not only that tho, I’m the first and only one at the door when they open at 6:30am, but they watch me at the closed door for 15 minutes waiting to get inside & open it for me late at 6:45am… watching me there the whole time!

First one in at late opening & my samwich still Luke warm??? Was the sausage prepared too early because it busy with NO ONE there with me at all?? Why prepare it with no drive thru line, ghost town.

 

[ghenges]

lmao, I just read this again

Oh I guess I played myself lol.

How much deli meat do you guys buy at a time?

I always get reactions from the deli people when I tell them I want a pound of this and another pound of that. I don’t feel like buying two pounds is that crazy.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

At most, I would buy a half of a pound of ONE thing.

I don't like wasting food so I'd rather undershoot it than overshoot it.

 

[mplsdunk]

I never throw it away, I make a sandwich daily, so does my wife and they aren’t small.

I can see that if it’s just you eating it

How are the sandwiches constructed?

Toppings, condiments, etc.

And which types of meats do you get? (#)
