Your Last Meal Request?

Green Chile Cheeseburger, Bobcat Bite, Santa Fe (Short link to full story for mobile readers) From time to time, someone writes an article about “oddball” last meal requests by condemned prisoners.  It was in the news again recently because Texas has now banned last meal requests – unless it is something normally offered or fixed… Continue reading Your Last Meal Request?

Portland, OR – Blitz Ladd (for pizza)

Mrs. Burgerdogboy was having a lunch biz meeting here and offered to bring me something home.  (She is SO good to me!)  I went with the pizza, simply because a) I haven’t had pizza in awhile, and 2) I had not tried Blitz’s and it would give me something to write about. I asked her… Continue reading Portland, OR – Blitz Ladd (for pizza)

Pillsbury Heat and Eat Breakfast Biscuits

I often carp to anyone within spitting distance, “why are there only sausage and egg breakfast sandwiches in the frozen food?  Why doesn’t anybody make a bacon and egg one? Well, someone at Pillsbury heard me, and came out with Bacon, Egg, Cheese Biscuits, a 2.5 minute microwave affair.   They come in two separate pieces,… Continue reading Pillsbury Heat and Eat Breakfast Biscuits

IHOP – Bacon ‘N Beef ™ Burgers

I rarely get to chain restaurants, especially for burgers. But Mrs. Burgerdogboy and I were out and about last nite, and feeling a little peckish late in the afternoon. By coincidence, I had grabbed the mail as we left the house, and in it was the local coupon flyer, which had a BOGO coupon for… Continue reading IHOP – Bacon ‘N Beef ™ Burgers

10 Pounds of Bacon, $5.49

No, it’s not some anniversary special price roll-back for a grocery store. It’s what Homer Simpson could consume  at the Shoney’s Breakfast Buffet. (“Ah, gee, Marge, you promised we could have  pork SIX nights a week!”) But why stop at bacon?  Load up on patty  sausage, thick-sliced country ham, artery-clogging biscuit gravy or white sauce, … Continue reading 10 Pounds of Bacon, $5.49

Eating My Way Around the World

During my “career”, I was fortunate to be able to live and travel all over the globe, and try all sorts of exotic and wonderful cuisines.  One of my ex-wives (and there have been many, because I’m “difficult”) said I only did the work so I could eat great food at other people’s expense.  Might… Continue reading Eating My Way Around the World
