HERE WE GO!!!!

Pittsburgh has many regional foods. Here are just a few of my favorites that will probably show up at the Superbowl Party we’re attending today. Dear Lord, give me strength, did I really have to schedule my 4th monthly weigh-in for tomorrow morning!!!

Perogies with sour cream- They’re on most appetizer menus here due to a strong Polish population

Wash those down with an Iron City Beer

Pittsburgh is noted for the all-in one meal. Like the Pittsburghese (smashing all their words together) they enjoy smashing all their food together (hey, it ends up that way anyway, right?). There's the famous (sorry no pic) steak salad with strips of hot steak and hot fries ontop (sounds weird, tastes delicious, on every menu in Pitttsburgh), and the Primanti Bros. style Sandwich- Stacked High with meat (best with the local Isaly’s Chipped Ham) Coleslaw and fries (yes ON the sandwich...what's not to like about french fries on everything?). Trivia- Both the sandwich with fries and the salad with fries were invented in the 1930’s to make it easier for dock workers and steel factory workers to eat lunch more quickly.

Keilbasa with Heinz Ketchup

Finish it off with an Eat’nPark Steelers Smiley Cookie (remember, I warned you yesterday about the toothbrush!)

…and a Clark Bar

GO STEELERS!

Food Porn! Hah! I LOVE it! I'm a Southern girl and honey, we deep fry everything. We'd fry lard if we could just find a way! I don't discrminate though, I love all kinds of food! None of your food porn gives me any real pause except for that hot dog thingy with the sausage. OMG, I'd kill somebody for a loaded up chili dog. It's my FAV! I can only imagine what that sausage thingy must be like! Heaven, I'm sure. I'll tell you what looks good, though...that big, dark, tree trunk thighed,long haired, curly locks guy that plays for the Steelers! He does play for the Steelers, doesn't he? I don't do the sports thing...except for boxing! Stay strong, girl!
