Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
I love Blue Cheese. Neal's Yard Dairy makes a nice Stilton, readily available here in B'More. Maytag is nice, too (the cheese as well as the appliance).
My grandfather, a real German, used to eat a Limburger sandwich with onion on pumpernickel. I have had it but not for years. Pretty good. What's better, IMHO, is a raw ground beef sandwich, with pepper, onion and mustard, on rye bread. Ever eat that? With a beer it's a fine sandwich on a Saturday in 1954. I might even make one this weekend.

My mom used to make a brick cheese sandwich with thin sliced onion and yellow mustard. Depression special baby!

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
Scuff. Do you have a ****ing tapeworm farm. My grandpa J. Wilfred told a story of his uncle eating raw hamburger in a meat processing plant, but said it was done as a stunt. This tradition sounds time-honored, though. Ain't sure how I'd handle it. I drank the Black-tooth Steve and it turned my stomach.

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
I'm not sure I could eat a whole sandwich but in little pieces raw meat tastes good. I used to eat it as a child all the time.

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
Raw meat is awesome! Tar-****ing-tar-tar. Dee-****ing-licious! I was maybe 5-7 when I remember my old man eating it right out of the grocery store wrapper. He loved it and, yes, he's got German in him. As any kid would do I hovered around his feet, "What's tha? But mom hasn't cooked it..." Old Pushbroom looked at me square in the eye and said, "Shut up. It's delicious. A little salt and pepper (as he got the lettle raw meat ball ready for me) and just pop it in. You'll love it." It was delicous as he promised. My mother's, "Don't feed him raw meat, he'll get worms..." was merely background distraction.
I think we ate about a half-pound of raw 1970's era--- prior to steroids--- beef. My mother had a ****ing fit, but that was some yummy stuff.
Great thread, btw!

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
Steak tartare, yessir. It is an old German thing, I believe but was quite common in this town in the 1940's and 1950's. I'm gonna have one tomorrow for lunch. If I can find some organic beef at Wegman's. I used to live on Elerslie Avenue. Across from the old Memorial Stadium. My grandmother would send me around the corner to Mr. Hohman. he had a market on Melville Avenue and was a butcher. I used to love watching him cut stuff up and he would give me a saspirilla. By God, I'm gonna eat that tomorrow and have a beer with it and read some H.L. Mencken.
What is a Black-tooth Steve? Cow blood?

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
Black-toothed Steve is a shot I made up, variation of the Black-Toothed Grin made famous by a band called Pantera. Black Toothed Grin is whiskey, with a dash of Coke. Black Toothed Steve was named after an old friend of mine, named Steve, who loved Pantera. Black Tooth Steve is a double shot of bourbon, a double shot of Jagermeister, mixed together, with a couple ounces of raw hamburger thrown in the bottom. Bottoms up.

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
Okay. I'm meated out. Friday for lunch I had a roast beef sandwich. Went out Friday night and ate meatballs. Saturday I had my raw ground beef sandwich. Went to Ruth's Chris Saturday night and had a New York Strip, cooked in butter. Today, we went out to lunch with Weed and Boss and little one and ate a huge bacon cheeseburger and tonight I've slow cooked beef stew. I don't think I can eat it. I'm seriously waiting for my arteries to shut. I can "see" the congealed grease sliding through my system.
I'm ****ing done here. But that RGB sandwich was the ****. A quarter pound of fresh ground sirloin on two slices of pumpernickel, topped with a thick slice of onion, fresh ground black pepper and a generaous dollop of stone ground mustard.
Try it.

Re: Things to teach your kids that our parents didn't teach us
I might have to give that raw beef sand a go. Sounds good. Did it give you the runs, tho?
