Pet, the whole deal needed hot sauce. I was thinking we could southernize it with some Cholula.

...and a sweet tea.

I was thinking a Sweetwater Summer Hummer....but sweet tea can do in a pinch.

 

[Inkara1]

Is a Sweetwater Summer Hummer what I think it is?

 

[tonksy]

It's a beer...but if Rob wants one of what you are thinking while he eats his poutine I am certainly willing to accommodate.

 

[unclehobart]

SHES MINE!

*wide grin*

What is the salt level in the gravy then? If the cheese and fries are bland, what is bringing flavour to the party?... or is it just a succulent fat thing?

fries are salted heavily, so is the gravy

Hmm... If only I could get cheese curds down here. They are a regional phenomenon localized in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ontario and Quebec.

i thought gravy on fries was a baltimore thing!
well, at least, around here it's a baltimore thing, lol. up there with crabcakes and natty boh.
i guess the difference is we dont do cheez curds.
a local diner that is very popular has a dish called Disco Fries, they're fries with gravy on top and shredded cheddar cheese on top of that but the whole thing turns to cold mush if you don't eat it fast. having a friend or two to help is very useful.

In a little place called "Jerry's Curb Service" in Bridgewater, PA, they serve what they call a steak salad. Basically fries, topped with a salad, topped with strips of steak. The only dressing you get is Italian. Tastes good, too.

Not... even... close...

Isn't that amazing how you can get really good FRENCH FRIES in France?

 

[Slim Pickens]

I know that it is cheddar instead of curd, but you can get cheese fries with gravy in Louisiana, too...the Chimes! Plus, all kinds of beer from around the world!

I enjoyed the Smash Sandwiches...basically a loaded cheeseburger poboy, with the fries in it, put in like a panini toaster and smushed

well, i had always heard that when something is "french" -- like french toast, french fries, or french-cut green beans -- that it is actually "frenchED", and to french is to cut into thin strips! so french fries and friench toast are not actually french!
so yes, i was very amazed that i could get really good frenched fries in france!

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

"french" is one of those words that looks REALLY weird the more you look at it.
much like the lowercase E.

 

[paul_valaru]
