Top 10 Dishes to Avoid at Jerry's Cookout

[Boneman]

In the "Cheaters" thread, OcalaSp reveals that Jerry's Governor's Cup cookout has now become an "anal" affair. Uhh...no thanks. In my absence, I would like to offer the following suggestions on what to avoid when attending an anal cookout.

10 Pork Butt
9 Rump Roast
8 "Junk in the Trunk" Sausage
7 "Baby's Got Back" ribs
6 black bean salsa
5 smokey lard ass
4 booty-k-bobs
3 Monkey Butt
2 Laffy Taffy ("Oh baby, shake that laffy taffy")
1 Anything with "OSF" in the description

While in Bankok Thailand on R&R I had the 'chance' to eat monkey brains from a live monkey head stuck through a hole in the table. I passed.......
The mess hall chow looked really good to me after returning to Viet Nam from R&R(rape&rampage).

Not too many cats running loose in Nam either, the gooks eat them if they can catch them.

Everything Jerry cooks is really good. Just don't want to know where it comes from.....
suppers waitin'....Later

HEY BONES.... I resemble that remark.

I'm so excited about this years event... I heard the picnic is gonna include some kind of big race... I always hated to just eat and run (plus its such a long drive back to Tampa right after eating so much)... gonna be nice to go inside, relax and watch a race for a change.

Actually... if you check back over all these years, I have yet to eat anything at Jerry's cookouts (thats a fact - even Ocala-s-MAMA's tater salad)... just to let you all know the real deal... I just look llike I eat from every table south of the Fla State Line.

"In some parts of Europe, scrotum, brain, chitterlings (pig's large intestine), trotters (feet), heart, head (of pigs, calves, sheep and lamb), kidney, liver, "lights" (lung), sweetbreads (thymus or pancreas), fries (testicles), tongue, snout (nose), and tripe (stomach) from various mammals are common menu items."

Rather scarily I've actually witnessed 11 of those 14 dishes being prepared by my mother or grandmother during my younger days. Tripe was one of my Dad's favorite foods and every Christmas I'd recoil in horror on the day I'd walk into my Grandma's kitchen and find a real Ox tongue sitting on a plate waiting to be cooked for Christmas Day evening sandwiches.

(Thankfully I've only eaten 5 of the above myself)

Theres only one thing that concerns me about this. If Jerrys cookouts are an "anal affair", what the hell does he use for sauce when hes grilling the meat?

And AndyS, I know what you mean about the younger days. When I was a kid, my grandfather always ate cow tongue sandwiches for lunch and scrambled eggs and pig brains for breakfast. I dont care who you are, thats just nasty right there!!

For the Gov. Cup--

Working on getting that big ol' grill from a few years back, and some propane tanks....Gods Gas.
I'll help the Frass118 out on that, for sure.
Deloaches Market, in Casselberry, Fl. sells alot of weird stuff, and I'll make it my guarantee that food will resemble something........something that will be All American, or Italian, or Asian. And yes, EDM I will see that you have anything your heart desires, as long as I purchase it, Nobody will go without, or hungry.
Also, I'll be bringing a Big-Screen TV, with DVD and Videos of racing from all around, to be viewed throughout the entire weekend.....with a generator and a gas can to fire it up.
Bring your favorite spice, or sauce to pile it on top of the food.
And a roll of paper towells to clean up after.
