Midwestfag here. I would love to try a lobster roll, but have never seen any around here. Also can't afford to buy a lobster to make one at home.

>>9037011
>start local restaurant selling lobster rolls
>profit

They're pretty good though. Hope you try one some time.

>>9037011
>can't afford to buy a lobster
A tail "in season," is like 6 bucks, guy.

That being said, better be hot in butter rather than cold in mayo.

>>9036913
true that brother

in fact, pretty much any gas station biscuit is great if it's fresh, but country ham is the GOAT

>>9037077
The only thing that might be better is a good chicken biscuit, but it has to be some pretty damn good chicken, which is harder to find than good ham.

I'm gonna get endless shit for this, but whatever.

Virginia here.

I want whole hog or any good pork BBQ.

Virginia is unfortunately a destitute shithole when it comes to food. All talent either moves north towards DC or south towards states that can grill worth a damn.

The sad part is how large of a pork industry we have.

Sic semper shitty salami.

>>9037092
chick-fil-a biscuits are good as fuck, but it still doesn't beat country ham

there's also a fast food place around here called jack's (not jack in the box) that has pretty good chicken biscuits

>>9037131
i just planned on going to chick fil a tomorrow to get one and then i realized tomorrow is sunday

it's always fuckin sunday

>>9037127
If you're any where near fredericksburg, there are a few places that sell whole pigs just for this, already cleaned up and dead ready for the grill. It's pretty popular there. But like you said it's more near DC

>>9036895
>just a biscuit
>no bacon/sausage gravy
you're really missing out, anon

>>9037664
Why the fuck would you put gravy on a country ham biscuit you lardass? Do you not see the country ham in the center of it? Is it not enough fucking fat for your huge ass? It's not "just a biscuit" it's obviously a biscuit with country ham in it and butter, making it a sandwich. You don't cover a sandwich in gravy. Go be fat some where else. You're like the guy who posts in a "make your own pizza" thread saying PIZZA SUCKS

I hate white people and I will never have a mint Julep with my scrambled eggs.

>>9037011

The gas station down the road had biscuits and gravy sandwiches. It was a biscuit filled with sausage gravy. I loved those things.

Didn't realize this was a regional thing until recently, but salmon patties.

Talked to a dude from Seattle, and he had no concept of this shit. Great on a biscuit, or at dinner and supper with sides. Goes great with mustard, too.

>>9036895

>>9037011
You live in the midwest, so you have the availability of deliciously soft and fresh, top split chicago poppyseed buns (for dogs). Just get a _MAINE_ or I guess Canadian lobster tail. They should be on special for under $10 at some point in the year, maybe even coming up for July 4th picnics! That's highly affordable. Butter toasted roll, meat, hot butter if it's really fresh. If not, go ahead and buy two lobsters and make the mayo version too, getting it good and chilled, top with chives and tarragon, to see which you like best.

>>9040324
Looks incredible. I've tried making it but I can't find actual cheese curd around here so I use fresh mozzarella instead. It's not terrible but I want the real thing

>Scones are sweet, American biscuits are savory and buttery.
Scones can be sweet or savory. American biscuits can be flaky, cheesey, honeyed, rising or drop biscuits. Anything goes dude.
There is little difference in many kinds of scones and american biscuits as a matter of fact. From cream to buttermilk, it is chef's perogative. I'd say scones are mostly handmade, where biscuits in the US use a cheat of some sort more often and not.

My favorite regional food goes from Houston through Lake Charles through Louisiana and maybe a little bit more on I-10 through the Alaga.
Groceries and convenience stores have hot chafing dishes of fresh boudin, and restaurants make boudin balls. All day every day, it's a savory snack that hits the spice factor and that funkiness from game meat or liver. ADORE IT. That's something I really miss.
Linked is a travel guide if you're road tripping I-10.

Not to sound like a jew but cheese does not belong inside of meat, it fucking ruins how both are cooked. Just melt the cheese on top of the burger like a decent human being and quit trying to showboat like some greasy David Blaine.

>>9040370
My God man, I haven't been to Jerry Lee's in so long. We used to pick up boudin and cracklins from there all the time and it was always great.

>>9039629
Scones are not sweet; if you're eating something sweet it is not a scone, trust me I wrote the book on scones.
The filling is meant to be sweet but can still be enjoyed with just butter/and or cream.
If your scone is sweet get fucking rid and start using a new recipe.

As someone who grew up in the Midwest and doesn't care for seafood, Wisconsin is the greatest. Farms everywhere = $1.75 for a gallon of skim milk, $0.89/lb for split chicken breast, $2.50/lb of ground beef. Point in any direction and start walking, you can find beer, sausage, and cheese curds within 5 minutes.

Right. Bacon.

>>9046401
The overwhelming majority of bacon is not dry-cured, it's wet-cured.

Most of it is either put in a tank containing Wiltshire cure (invented in Wiltshire, England) or is injected with a similar liquid.

Also, bacon is made from either the belly or the loin. Ham comes from the leg.

>>9046484
>dry-cured ham
>fried on a griddle

Which is a perfect description of bacon.

>>9046488

Did you forget the part in which ham comes from the leg whereas bacon is either the loin or the belly?

>>9046512
It all comes from the same animal and all tastes the same once it's been cured. There is literally no difference.

>>9046518
>all tastes the same once it's been cured.
Lolno.

the fat content, and therefore the flavor, of the different cuts is radically different. Not to mention that the loin is a very tender muscle whereas ham contains harder working muscles, so the texture will be very different as well. The belly contains both hardworking and tender muscle so streaky bacon will contain both textures.
