BBQ Brethren "Musical Food" Throwdown!

I was just about to run in here and post about how excited I was that I would be coming back to the TD world with what I thought to be a heavy shot ... then I saw THAT. I have to admit, I'm not a big Rush fan (a bit before my day ... although I'm a huge Elvis fan ... ), but the story sold me.

Oh well, I'm still going to bring it ... tomorrow night ... IT'S ON!!!!!!!!!
 
WW4BBQ thanks for the Rush mash-up message, that was so cool!

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words and my apologies to any discouraged brothers. Bring it on instead! It's great to finally have a camera that isn't agony to use, my 9 year old PIA digital camera was so much worse than I knew. My new camera is heaven to use, I swear it thinks the way I do and it has taken about about 2 hours or more of struggle out of documenting each of my last two cooks. Good riddance to suffering and hello rekindled passion.

Bluesman, you're absolutely right about the bagpipes but it's much worse than just cabbage rolls! I have been eating a large jar of saurkraut myself from the Hot Dog TD while sharing the pile of cabbage from my Mama Mia TD entry and now I've got a chitload of cabbage rolls to eat. :twitch:

Remember this commercial?
It's beneficial, toot toot, to fill your tank,
It's great to know, toot toot, where crop dusting is,
We want.. to give you.. the same we get... from your behind.

:laugh:

I'd like to add one more of my all time favorites... I can't find the whole song live, so the first half will have to do...

Anyone that knows me at all, knows that I'm a HUGE Eric Church fan. At the first Eric Church concert my fiancee and I went to together I told her I loved her during his song "Love Your Love The Most". When I proposed to her, I did it with a Christmas ornament that said on one side "I Love Your Love The Most" and the other side "Will You Marry Me?"

To this day, I've seen him 9 times live, and every single show was awesome. Well, EC (that's what he goes by in our house) is a BIG Jack Daniels drinker. He's always popping tops off mini bottles during shows and throwing them back, throwing little plugs in songs, or ... as in this case ... writing a full song about it.

My entry to the Musical Food throw is a tip of the cap to my favorite artist ... and one of my favorite beverages ...

The cook is called (with a twist of one of the lines in his song)

Jack Daniels Kicked My Ass Again Tonight

We did Jack Daniels Flank Steak with Jack Daniels and Pecan Mashed Sweet Potatoes and for dessert Jack Daniels and Bacon Brownies

For some reason it's not copy and pasting the way it always does from my blog ... so for the full cook check it out http://onenine3bbq.blogspot.com/

Great job Cack, I don't know why but I read your post and thought all along you were talking about Eric Clapton :loco: I did however eventually figure out it was Eric Church once I clicked the video. Awesome back story on the proposal. :thumb::hungry:
 
This is a song.
This is a new song.
This is through the eyes of one of the greatest people alive, I feel…
The Lunch-lady.

Woke up in the morning, put on my new plastic glove.
Serve some reheated Salisbury steak, with a little slice of love.
Got no clue what the chicken potpie is made of…
I just know everything’s doing fine down here in...Lunch-lady Land.

Well I wear this net on my head, 'cause my red hair is falling out.
I wear these brown orthopedic shoes, 'cause I got a bad case of the gout.
I know you want seconds on the corndogs, but there’s no reason to shout.
Everybody gets enough food down here in...Lunch-lady Land.

Well…yesterday’s meatloaf is today’s sloppy joes.
My breath reeks of tuna and there is lots of black hairs coming out of my nose.
In Lunch-lady Land your dreams come true, clouds made of carrots and peas.
Mountains built of shepherds pie, and rivers of macaroni and cheese.
But don’t forget to return your trays and try to ignore my gum disease.
No student can escape the magic of...Lunch-lady Land.

Ohhh….

Hoagies & grinders, hoagies & grinders

Hoagies & grinders, hoagies & grinders

Navy beans, navy beans, navy beans

Hoagies & grinders, hoagies & grinders

Navy beans, navy beans

Meatloaf sandwich

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

I dreamt one morning and what did I see? The pepperoni pizza was a-looking at me.
It screamed why do ya burn me and serve me up cold?
I said I got the spatula just do what your told.
Then the liver and onions started joining the fight.
and the chocolate pudding pushed me with all its might.
And the Chop Suey slapped me and it kicked me in the head.
It’s called revenge Lunch-lady said the garlic bread.
I said what did I do to make you all so mad?
They said you got flabby arms and your breath is bad.
Then the green beans said you better run and hide.
But then my friend Sloppy Joe came and joined my side.
He said if it wasn’t for the Lunch-lady the kids wouldn’t eat ya.
You should be shakin’ her hand and saying pleased to meet ya.
She gives you a purpose and she gives you a goal.
You should be kissin’ her feet and kissin’ her mole.
Now all the angry foods just leave me alone.
And we all live together in a happy home.

Thanks to
Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Sloppy joe, slop, sloppy joe

Well me and Sloppy Joe got married,
We got six kids and we’re doing just fine,
Down in Lunch-lady Land…
:twitch:

While I’m usually a fairly serious individual (most engineers are), I have always had an appreciation for Adam Sandler’s humor. In honor of the Lunch Lady song, I have prepared sloppy joes for this TD.

1 lb spicy Owen’s sausage
3 lbs chuck
Celery (sautéed)
Onions
Garlic

Turned them into patties and grilled them until seared. Put them into a bath of 38 oz Hunts tomato sauce and simmered for a while. Broke up the patties and served up the sloppy joes on grilled buns with grilled cauliflower and celery.

I've never really been a big fan of sloppy joes, but these turned out fantastic! I WILL be making these again. :becky:

Please use the last photo for the TD pic.

Some great cooks going on here. I'm almost (aaaalllllllllllmost) afraid to toss my entry into the ring, especially since there were a few hitches in my process. Great work to all of you so far!
 
Not an entry

I must hang my head in shame and admit to being defeated by the elements.

My inspiration for this nonentry was John Prine.

I love the story and every time I though about this TD I came back The Happy Enchilada

They still turned out pretty good but I had to resort to the indoor appliances :evil: Oh Well you win some you lose some.
