    you knew this was coming but the places we eat :)

    we almost always eat breakfast because sometimes we look up when its getting dark and realized we missed lunch. you notice i say sometimes we usually get a good lunch in to. i cant believe this is the only pic ive got on my phone because i take pics of food all the time to pick on my little brother about where im eating at. Freonjoe has said he wants one of these, smoked pork chop, over easy eggs, and biscuits with chocolate gravy at the Front Page Cafe in jonesboro, where do you guys eat with pics if possible

    If this is how you reaaly get down, you will not be scrapping for long. Everything here does one thing really well, clog arteries.

    I'm sorry, just never heard of chocolate gravy and it dosn't sound like it would be good for breakfast. Maybe I should try some before I comment on it. I live in the south and we eat biscuits and gravy but without the chocolate.

    55 Have had 2 Heart Attacks
    1 was Bad/Good enough it got me a Helicopter ride into Boston
    That was the first 10 years ago
    Last month they had to Roto Rooter the 3rd artery as that was 95% blocked

    Not a big drinker, Never got into drugs BUT Boy I LOVE to eat!

    Place in Boston on Blue Hill >> SIMCO >> Simco's - Mattapan - Mattapan, MA

    This is taken from one of their reviews

    The best traditional hot dog you can get anywhere. Nothing fancy or gimmicky, unless you count the fact that it's "foot-long".

    One huge factor separating this from other dogs the bun. They don't simply toast the bun, the bun is buttered before being lightly pressed on the same grill as the dogs, so it's got small traces of grilled dog char on the golden-brown toasted surface. The dog itself tastes exactly like a hot dog should, real hot dog flavor, with just the right amount of charring and texture, the right snap to each bite. You will always wait about one minute for it, because they always make sure you get it hot off the grill, and I mean hot. Not warm, but very hot, like be careful about taking a big bite too quick. They put the condiments on for you, and they somehow get it perfect almost every time.


    I LOVE the Hot Sausages on those Bunns
    We used to stop almost every day to get a couple for the 30 min ride home

    I had the wife stop there last month on the way home from getting that Artery cleared, about 10 AM, and picked up 4 of the Hot Sausages
    The plan was to eat 1 and have the other 3 in the next couple days
    They were all gone by 3PM that day
    BOY there are GOOD!

    There's a gas station a few minutes from my garage that has great chicken sandwiches. A few of those and an Arizona iced tea is all I ever eat when I'm scrapping.

    Salt Lick BBQ is one of THE BEST places around here for meat, along with City Market (another BBQ place) in Luling. I also love Whataburger (Another Texas thing) along with Rudy's (Another BBQ Place. As you can tell, I love me some good BBQ) No personal pics though. I don't really take pics when I eat. I also love tex-mex and breakfast taquitos.


    Smoke pit at Salt Lick. Yum!


    some Rudy's grub. Sorry for the big pic.

    i normally eat the sausage gravy and only eat the chocolate every now and then, we got a hotdog place to but it doesnt sound near as good as johns, we got a couple gas stations we goto, one for deli sandwiches, and the other for your common gas station food, we got a place for dang near everything though, we gotta goto the chinese restaurants now to get crawfish, all the fish houses quit serving them, MORE pics to follow

    Only slightly off target here but when I moved down to south east Kansas I was impressed when you could walk into a gas station and buy a single (or more) iced cold beer out of the coolers. Up here if you want a cold one you have to go to a bar/restaurant.

    Berwyn Pizza in Berwyn, PA. Cheesesteak Strombolies.....out of this world. We now live about 3 hours from there. Whenever anyone goes near it, they buy about $100 worth for everyone.

    I'm going with Cory to breakfast when I get out there to have that cooler challenge with Barren for the rights to 007..( I kid I kid..dont run from the cooler, it is your friend!) then I'm stopping off to see Gravitar..That food is worth the chance of combusting into flames for setting foot anywhere near or in Dallas, TX. Ha!

    Far as if its good for you..Nobody gets out alive folks. Might as well enjoy it. An nowadays..what doesn't have the chance to kill you? Seen those medicine ads lately? Look at all the stuff it will fix..now look at the side effects.."Seizures, Blindness, itchyness, bumps, rash, oh and..death."

    That said..I think I'll clean my grill later, its getting to that time of the year.
