In a post in another thread somebody talked about "chipped ham." That's something peculiar to the Pittsburgh area. We grew up eating Chipped Ham sandwiches for lunch.

Living in Binghamton, New York for many years, I learned about Spiedies. Anybody know that that is?

How about regional favorites from where you lived

I'm from Central Pa/JoPa territory, chipped ham is poular here as well but you gotta eat scrapple for breakfast and ham potpie for supper.

In Atlanta if you want tea without sugar in it, you have to order "unsweetened tee". If you just order iced tea, it'll have enough sugar in it to cover Stone Mountain.

And grits-- that just about goes without saying, y'all.

Being from NE PA, I have been to the BC open where I first had a Spiedie. Loved it! It's made with either chicken or pork. Stores in my area started selling the marinade, so I never go without.

When I worked in Philadelphia I savored the Philly cheese steak. Nobody, but nobody, makes them like Philadelpha street vendors or tiny shops.

Braunschweiger sandwich with raw onion. Goetta. Fried cornmeal mush. Johnny Marzetti.

And then we rid up the table.

YUMMMMMMMM! Just add a little mustard...

Roast beef on WECK! (Saw it spelled "wick" in yesterday's paper.)

[l2ridehd]

Yes, beef on weck, must be from Buffalo. Roast beef on a kimelweck roll that has hard rock salt baked into the bun, served with horseradish and Au ju sauce. YUM. Also from buffalo, Texas Red Hots from Ted's, Buffalo wings from Rooties, and Buffalo Chips, those chocolate covered macaroons from a bakery in Allentown. All stuff that is so good and so bad for you.

Hey Gracie I thought we were the only ones who "red up".

[faithfulfrank]

OMG, I grew up in Endwell, and LOVE speedies!!!!

For the last 40 years I've been in western NY. Home of Beef on Wicks, White hots, REAL Buffalo Chicken wings, etc,etc.

Last time I was at our Florida home, I went to Publix looking for Chevetta's.
Then I realized that it was a local thing. DARN!

When we come back down there in March, I am bringing at least a gallon of Chevetta's and some kimelwick rolls.

I also grew up loving Taylor Ham, also known as pork roll. I cannot get it in western NY, it is a NJ thing, but I was pleased to find that it IS sold at Publix in Florida!!! So I buy it down there, freeze it and bring it back up here.
