That is a bit redundant when using cube steak. There is a reason it is called cubed steak and that reason is why you pay extra for cubed steak.
During a visit to America, Winston Churchill was invited to a buffet luncheon at
which cold fried chicken was served. Returning for a second helping, he asked
politely, "May I have some breast?"
"Mr. Churchill," replied the hostess, "in this country we ask for white meat or dark
meat." Churchill apologized profusely.
The following morning, the lady received a magnificent orchid from her guest of
honor.
The accompanying card read:
"I would be most obliged if you would pin this on your white meat."
Ooooo Chicken fried steak and Texas Caviar.
I beg yo pardon, suh! Them’s blackeyed peas!!
Crap is discussed here: Coffee from cat droppings clean enough for Muslims
Snort! LOL!
England really went thru it during those war years. But with leaders like Churchill and the strength of the English people, they stood against Hitler and prevailed.
Heck I thought they were pinto beans...same thing sort of. Why ruin perfection w/ beans or cattle feed peas? LOL!
Beggin’ yo pardon, suh, but blackeyed peas is good eatin’.
Also bring you good luck all year if you eat ‘em on New Year’s day.
LOL, thats what Ive been told. I think its a matter of if you can survive the BEPs youll likely survive whatever life throws at you during the coming year. LOL!!!!!!
When I was growing up we did the BEPs/hog jowls thing every new years. Im SO glad to be done w/ that. That and poke/mustard/turnip greens. Even the thought of it makes me wince. Oh and sweet potatoes, thats another thing I no longer eat by choice. Nasty, nasty!!!!!! LOL, I think I might lose my ‘southern guy’ card for this...huh? :)
YOU, suh, are a disgrace to Southern manhood!
LOL, guess that means I lose the card huh?? :)
Comments like that put the "damn" in Yankees. LOL!
Mmmm. The only thing missing for a perfect meal is a jar of sorghum.
LOL, I see Ive stirred the hornets nest. LOL!!!!!!! Yall are too funny.
I must confess that altho I was born and raised in the south, lived there until after college and married a southern belle we spent many many years in New England. I came to really appreciate that ‘damn’ yankee cooking. I very much like boiled dinners, corned beef & cabbage, baked beans and brown bread, baked cod and lobster. I also discovered they make some really outstanding biscuits N of the Mason/Dixon line too. We turned our ‘yankee’ friends on to chick fried steak w/ drippings gravy, grits (yum!!!!), hominy, catfish & puppies etc etc. Lets call it a cultural exchange. LOL!!!!
Four words that deserve another four.
Mary's Cafe, Strawn, TX
Smashed taters, black-eyed peas and turnip greens.

Me, too!...don't think I've ever had baked cod, tho.
LOL, at least we can agree on one thing. Ill give you all my BEPs and turnip green and we’ll both be happy. LOL :)
