Some of you guys are really weird
Not all of us are weird. Some of us prefer Hellman's mayonnaise.
Spent many a year diving in Micronesia, where the favorite barbecue staple is Spam. They also love turkey necks and turkey tails.

They didn't have Rose. Very disappointed. Had to settle for another brand. As for the Duke's mayo cokes and relish I do have those cokes on hand but not much of a relish man. Depends on the relish. Here's what I do make for hot dogs and it's awesome. 1 part sweet and hot banana peppers, 1 part chopped onion, 1 part sweet pickle relish and celery seed to taste. Top on hot dogs with a little Duke's mayo and some Hunts ketchup and it's a good something different. Plan on trying some potted meat crackers on zestas with pepper a little later tonight with an ice cold 8 oz. glass bottle coke. It's been years since I've ate potted meat. OFC
Makin me hungry for those hot dogs!! Enjoy the potted meat and please share the reviews!

This is Sky's favorite, Hart.

Gross!! My granny used to make me scrambled brains and eggs when I was a kid. I remember going over there at around he age 16 and she hadn't made them in years. She made them that day and when I asked what it was, I wouldn't eat it. She told me how I used to love them.....well granny, I don't anymore.....
Ok I did it. It was not as good as I remember but it may have been because it was not the Rose Brand. 1 can will make about 8 -10 crackers depending on the thickness of the spread. I want to try to find the Rose brand but not sure where to find it. I don't think even if it was Rose I would eat it every night. With that said even if I can't find the Rose I will try it again. What I had tonight was Armour. I know we are having a good time with this. My wife wonders what I'm chuckling about as I read some of this stuff. I know I'm not your typical poster that uses this social media of sports talk boards. I love to make people laugh and I know I can get off the purpose of the board somewhat and I'm thankful of the mods we have that put up with some of my silly stuff. Hint here don't take me too seriously. I have a tendency to be a little sarcastic from time to time. I also know that I really rub those thr guys the wrong way and they have the right to feel the way they do. One thing that eating these potted meat crackers tonight was that it brought back wonderful memories of my dad who died way too soon. I was 22 when he passed. He would open up a can of Rose potted meat and split it with me. He would put both vinegar and pepper on his. I would just use pepper. He would also split a glass bottled Pepsi with me. He was a Pepsi man. I talk about food a lot but most of the time it's all in fun and I don't eat all the time. I have to say about 4 years ago I weighed 268 pounds. Being 5'8" I was way over weight. Went to the doctor today and I weighed 231.6 pounds. I'm kind of proud. I'm sitting here writing this stuff and have no idea why I'm telling all of this. This board is my therapy. I love it and love the people who post here even the ones that don't like me or the ones that are few that I don't like. It's really hard to not like someone you've never met but it's easy to love people I've never met. Thanks guys for making my days so much more pleasurable. You've been with me through my son's marriage, birth of 3 grandchildren and the death of my wonderful mother-in-law. Sorry for the long post and thanks to all who were patient enough to read it. OFC
Great post Sky, I mean it, reminded me of old days w/my late dad. Loved his potted meat, and come to think of it- vinegar on it as well!! Sorry you couldnt get the Rose brand, keep looking...Deviled ham sandwiches w/mayo were good too. I think its fun we can talk other things here in the off-season, and like you have made some good friends here..Peace brother! OFC
I know what you mean Sky! What fool would want to ruin a perfectly good can of brains by mixing them with eggs right?
Sky I also loved your story and your post caused me to think of my Father who would be 106 years old if still living. He died at 45 with a heart attack when I was just 7 years old but I do remember him taking me cane pole fishing and watching him eat stinking sardines on crackers. My Father, who was one of ten kids was born in Tatum SC where I am sure they ate brains, pig feet, chitterlings, mountain oysters, pig ears and pig tail because that's all they could afford. I have probably eaten a thousand cans of potted meat in my 66 years but proud to say none in the last 50 of so.

Haven't been on here in a while and come back to see discussions of potted meat and brains. Think I'll try back next week to see if there are less disgusting topics. LOL. Don't see how anyone can tolerate either one of those foods.
We have some similarities...
I grew up in Anderson S.C., and my father also died young of a heart attack. I was 13 and he was I think maybe 37 or so.
He didn't eat sardines, but he did take me fishing!!
I remember every time we went on a vacation, he hated to stop for food, so we would have potted meat and Vienna's with crackers while driving...I got smart and started packing PB&J samiches!!
I love Vienna Sausages and I usually eat a can of BBQ Vienna Sausages at least a few times a week for lunch. I also love Spam made into sandwiches whether it's straight from the can with mustard or especially fried with mustard.
Best meat in a can is Beverly Bulk Sausage. Mixed with eggs and cooked up...mmmmm good.
Does anyone remember Banner brand sausage in a can. Not proud to say it, but that was good stuff when I was a kid and with eggs of course.
DukefanKY we were cheated of ours Fathers for sure.
We've been talkin potted meat, pork brains, etc and this is a story Sky, Dirt, Mac and some other of us NC fellers will appreciate. Former Rep Congressman the late and honorable Howard Coble had nary a foe on either side of the aisle in Washington.
You have to love his favorite breakfast if you're a dyed in the wool southern boy. He was a good friend, sorry to say he pulled for UNC, his only flaw- miss ya Howard:

I've got a good idea. For Duke's DR trip, why don't we get some members of DI and all meet at Sky's house. We can have Sky cook some of that good ol' potted meat on the grill, along with some treet sandwiches. I can hardly wait. Just to save the food for others, I'll eat before I get there.
You KNOW we're not letting you out of eating potted meat! OFC
Deviled ham on toasted bread w/mayo and bread n butter pickles on side.
You are SO thoughtful!!...Giving up your rations some everyone else will have plenty!!
You don't cook potted meat. It's an appetizer on Zesta or Premium Saltine crackers. And you ain't coming to my house mac.
OFCCome on Sky, don't make me beg. Why can't I come over too???You don't cook potted meat. It's an appetizer on Zesta or Premium Saltine crackers. And you ain't coming to my house mac.
Anyone who thinks you can grill potted meat has to hang out with guru gary-7, flatarheel and frankthetarheel.

You can grill it...The secret is to mix it with brains and eggs
