    All this talk! So I tried it this evening. I've only ever made a grilled cheese with butter. Didn't know this was a thing. I used Duke's mayonnaise..not a mayo snob just what I had in my fridge.

    * Result: It was damn good and this is why*

    1. It cooked the sandwich evenly 
    2. It gave it a good "greasy diner" burn..even the crust
    3. Makes me want to buy some cheap white bread and try it again. My bread was too healthy for that greasy mess

    :smiley: Ha ha thanks! I was apparently able to do this after consuming a large amount of alcohol. Guess that's why the greasy mess was so good!!

    I like how you put "I was apparently able to do this" -- you would make a good (dangerous?) drinking buddy.
    I end up saying things like that frequently.

    I'm going to fuck up some Philadelphia sushi & sake this evening....because nothing says "Fenway Prep" like going out and chowing down locally, bigly.

    Haa! Exactly you never know what might happen. Enjoy that Sushi! I need to eat something soon. Been too busy with my Fenway prep. Cleaning the house so it's "mom approved" when she arrives to stay with the child. I still need to pack and flight is early tomorrow morning. Cannot wait!!

    Any Boston cuisine worth checking out?

    Not a great picture, but we have some pan toasted Naan bread with hummus, feta cheese, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, and of course some super sweet cherry tomatoes from the garden.
    Anybody have a name for such a thing?  I've heard people call it felafel, but I don't think that's right.  Delicious though, going to add some thin shaved onion when I do lunch today.

    Onion pull was 41lbs, that's a 9lb increase from last year, so that's awesome.  Now I need to find a place for a laundry baskets worth of onions.
    Making more salsa this weekend, I will take a final tally when the maters Peter out.

    Back home after spending a day grazing at the MN State Fair.  A run down of the goodies I consumed (some was shared with the wife):

    - Irish Tater Kegs: giant tater tots with corned beef, Swiss cheese,and kraut. Drizzled with 1000 island.

    - Fried bologna sandwich.

    - Scotch egg: hard boiled egg, wrapped in sausage patty, battered, and deep fried. Topped with honey mustard.

    - Chocolate covered, frozen key lime pie on a stick.

    - Pronto pup, also known as a corndog.

    - Cheese curds (not fried).

    - Grilled peach with honey and feta.

    - Roasted corn on the cob.

    - A Gizmo sandwich: Italian beef and sausage, red sauce, covered with mozzarella, on a hoagie bun.

    I need a salad...

    13 year old wanted to make his own monster quesodilla tonight.

    Brought him to the store and let him stock up.
    Started with nice little rib eye.  He cooked it a little over his medium rare goal but they still had some red and he seasoned aggressively.

    Cooked up four strips of bacon.  Easy peasy.

    (I did slice up the steak for him - don't want him to hack a finger off with one if my Globals)

    Wayyyy overloaded his tortilla with cheese/meat/bacon and instead of making two, he made one giant one from two tortillas.  (Nice save!)

    Turned out pretty good - got carried away with the sour cream but I tasted a spot w/o sour cream

    He couldn't finish it and had to use the toilet about twenty minutes after but was very proud of his work.

    :lol:
