The Yorkshire pudding wrap is exactly what you expect it to be. There are no surprises here. It is meat wrapped in an eggy pancake with potatoes and vegetables and gravy. But for all that it is quite satisfying.
The sauce tastes like something that can’t decide whether it is a bechamel, a gravy, or a cheese sauce and ends up being none of the above. Elements of each present themselves and are subsumed by the whole.
When it comes to eating Thanksgiving leftovers, the early worm gets the bird, so to speak.
The Danish bøfsandwich first came to my attention only a couple months ago, courtesy of Chicago Cicerone, beer judge, and Twitter friend Jenny Pfäfflin. She sent me a message one day just to let...
We’ve had our run-ins with beef tongue before here at the Tribunal. We spent the entire month of October eating toast. Now these two worlds collide.
I love turkey. It’s not just a Thanksgiving thing for me, though that’s when they’re most readily available. I stockpile them in my freezer and roast or smoke them throughout the year. I’ve said...
What won’t those lovable Canadian lugs do with gravy? Of course poutine, that Canadian cousin to other calorie-packed drunken foods like chili-cheese fries or a garbage plate, is quite well known these days. Less well known–though...
In my experience, French dip sandwiches are a pretty common thing to find on a menu. Taverns, family restaurants, steakhouses, BBQ joints… Whether you’re in a big city or a smaller town, odds are...
I recently watched the very good documentary The Search for General Tso, nominally about the origins of that popular Chinese-American dish (and where it turns out to have been created comes as a bit...
On Sunday morning I had a burger for breakfast, because I’m quite willing and able to eat a burger at any time of any day. To provide a bit more context, I met up...

I like a lot of other things too but sandwiches are pretty great
Crit (27)I'm a mother of two boys. I work selling organic produce to gullible locals, and in my spare time I run as far as I can. Oh, and I live in Australia, married to a US citizen.
Drew (14)I'm a transgender weirdo who loves music, books, comics, and all kinds of other geeky crap. I edit an arts/music/culture magazine in my hometown of Richmond VA (rvamag.com). But let's not talk about my day job. Let's talk about food. I love food.
Brian (7)I'm a tax guy and technical writer living in the city known to its locals as The Big 'Ago. I self-identify as a fighter against culinary dogma, a sandwich lover, and an overly-earnest hot dog enthusiast.
juliachildish (4)No denying it, I like the sensual things of the world, especially good food and drink, though I'm no snob when it comes to either. A background in American cultural history and food studies makes me approach the world with a desire for contextualization and connection on the way to synthesis.
Thom (1)I'm a seafood-obsessed environmental scientist from North Carolina currently enduring the pain of living in a landlocked state. I spend most of my free time thinking about baseball, history, Shaw Bros. movies and weird synthesizer music.
