Yes I serve applesauce with a plate of pork an beans and hot dogs.

Sausage and peppers are served cooked in tomato sauce, gravy, with a lot of parmesano sprinkled on top.

But you get the point. I’m not sure what a grinder is without looking it up. It seems it might be a hoagie, ham & cheese on a submarine roll which we just call a sandwich here in TX.

Maybe there’s special preparation steps in Philly or Indy that make it special we don’t know about.

“sausage and pepper grinder made with a good Italian sausage”

I haven’t had anything that resembles Italian sausage since I left Providence and shopped on “The Hill” Well once I spent $150 to have some sausage from Tony’s shipped overnight to Texas. It was so good.

Bacon and eggs for breakfast?

The chicken made a contribution.

The pig made a commitment.

Who loves you more?

Delicious, but I'm thinking more of the kind that has homemade tomato sauce as a key ingredient. Cheese optional, but never a mistake.

I know the feeling. In my freshman year of college, I persuaded my pals to drive out to New Haven, CT from Chicago for some Sally's Apizza in the middle of winter.

I guess the applesauce is at the bottom of that disturbing image. Nobody puts applesauce on anything except babies in high chairs: Liz was making a sarcastic point about cronyist suppliers to the prison food industry. Ground mustard got cut off during the pork boycott most likely too.

So is that called a grinder because you need a camel’s mouth to take a bite out of it and grind it up on your back molars? Looks like it’s ready for the ‘slider’ designation/configuration.

>>>pork lost its appeal in the prison system years ago. In the last two years, the menu had dropped from bacon, pork chops and sausages to just one dish<<<

Then again, the Prisoners could tie the Bacon together end to end and make a Bacon Rope so I’m sure it’s a safety issue. Don’t want any Escapes.

If the Prisoners don’t like Bacon, they deserve to be in there with their Muslim Brothers. LOL

The pig. He died for that breakfast.

The chicken lived to lay another day...

Well a big mouth (which I have) helps with fitting it in your mouth. The sausage and peppers should be simmering in the sauce for so long that the flavors inform each other. The sauce tastes peppery, the sausage tastes tomato-spicy, the peppers taste sausagey.

Basically, a good one is cooked on a 12-14" loaf of Italian bread (eat 1/2 if not hungry enough). The ingredients are so defeated (the bread gets soaked by that delicious sauce) that you can use any of the teeth in your mouth to eat it.

The term grinder has to do with a long sandwich (submarine, po'bot, foot long, hoagie, etc.) and the term grinder tends to locate it mainly in southeast New England, where I grew up (CT). The sandwich's roots found in the northeast, and grinder indicates (in my experience) that it is being made by real Italians. Sadly, that faker, Subway, was founded in CT as well. In the early days they established themselves by being open later and catering to partiers and potheads, and their great coupons. Unlike pizza, you CAN make a great one at home.

Well, there's also the Brady Bunch.
