Sometimes really good, other times tough and chewy. I guess by frying it, it's easy to over-cook?

Extra gravy, of course. 😄 I can at least try it and see if I like it. I think it was when we were on a three week road trip for our honeymoon that we tried it, so that has been a lot of years ago. 😋 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what a chicken fried steak is either. I guess it is located next to the chocolate gravy? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted April 3, 2023 #89684 Share Posted April 3, 2023 (edited) I have caught Small Mouth Bass in pond behind our house. Have not tried to eat them yet. Sometimes even catch two at a time. Just throw them back so they can get bigger. Edited April 3, 2023 by Jimbo 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you? Are you back home safe and sound? Poor Charlie. And poor you also, Marietta. It's never easy when someone we love is hurting or not well.😔 We got home late Friday night...I-95 in Virginia was bumper-to-bumper from Richmond all the way to Maryland. I've never seen it as bad as it was. Never again! We'll travel on the weekend from now on when we head North from Florida next time. It was a nightmare. Our awesome dentist on the Island is going in early this week to see me, since he is so booked up. I've always said he's the Best, and he truly is! 1 hour ago, grapau27 said: You crack me up, Graham!! These are all great!!!!😁 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer chicken fried chicken in either case it is pounded with mallet to make it thin then coated with bread crumbs and deep fried and served with a white gravy, not the healthiest meals but I like it once in a while . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is another one that will probably confuse “foreigners”. I like white gravy but never understood the popularity of chicken fried steak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my niece went away to college on Long Island, she said it was like another world. In a good, eye-opening way, not that she lived a shelter life in any way. After awhile, it became an inside joke whenever I told her I was going to Jones Beach or Robert Moses Park, I made it sound like I was going some place exotic. 😉 If by any chance it was Hofstra my youngest daughter went there for a second graduate degree after going to an upstate college for undergraduate and fist Masters. In the early 70’s my wife and I would do summer day trips to the Hamptons ,Sunken Meadow State Park and Montauk Point nearly every summer .Those were our exotic vacations .Since be moved to LI in 2003 we have not been to any of those places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thin steak is easy to over cook (much like Veal) & I guess different places uses different cuts of steak? It's a staple at Cracker Barrel but I feel like the good ones I've enjoyed were at a nondescript roadside diner on a road trip some place. Just don't remember where. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancy ones, fast food ones etc. Enjoyed them all😍 I had it twice and didn't much care for it but, of course, food is subjective. It was tough, and not what I expected. TX has some great bbq. I'll stick with that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
