  1. Oh, I see... I worked Dubel's slicing it and you'd get free gravy (depending on how much beef) on side. It was a lighter brown than the darker au jus... Corn starch/flour lightens the color...
  2. Yes... I was big boned. 😞 Interesting note. I work with a guy here, a year older than me... He claims Bob McAdoo is his cousin...
  3. But it's not the dark side... Bailo's was an originalist... They made it that way. So did others. We agree to disagree. A beef on week isn't a French dip with a salted roll. Horseradish also plays a part in it's uniqueness.
  4. You sure it was Schwabl's... We were just there. They serve gravy. It's the way it was invented.
  5. And the menu only gives you a choice on the chix finger sammich. I suppose you can ask for drippings (au jus) on regular sammiches... gasp! Kinda like Culver's in Midwest, South. Custard joints rock!
  6. So so. Cooked rarer and finished in the gravy! I used to work for Dubel's in deli/kitchen. They defined served gravy on in pint/quart containers with the sliced top round. The bakery department over is where you picked up the kimmelweck.
  7. Now... Mushroom gravy over Kraft Dinner... That sounds awesome! Sorry... I diverge... 😃
  8. And then you're just pissing in the sinks anyway! No tour can give you that. Geeze... How scintillating. They sell a ticket for everything. Get to see where Garth Brooks gets dressed. Next they'll be taking tours @ locks & dams. 😏
  9. If you like different kinds of mac-n-cheese... Go with Mooney's Sports Bar in W.Seneca across from The 400 on Union. They even do a "beef on weck" mac-n-cheese
  10. Leave your WICK alone. I have been on my soapbox saying same thing. It was invented with gravy.
  11. You the stuff thickened with flour or corn starch. I prefer corn starch, less clumping. 😏 And nobody likes lumpy gravy.
  12. AND don't say Schwabl's don't know the difference between gravy & au jus... They do. They serve the chicken finger sandwich with either: "Fried Chicken Finger Sandwich With Au Jus Or Gravy Lightly breaded, white breast chicken, served on a fresh roll with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise."
  13. Bailo's too. Since the menu says so and that's how they serve it: https://www.schwabls.com/menu/ They serve turkey w/gravy too: "Hand Carved Roast Beef robust 1/2lb. serving of our in-house roasted beef, hand-carved to your liking. served on your choice of kümmelweck, bread with gravy or without. Hand Carved Roasted Turkey robust 1/2lb. serving of our in-house roasted turkey breast, hand-carved to your liking. served on your choice of kümmelweck, bread with gravy or without." Bailo's and Schwabl's invented, perfected that sammich...
  14. I know the reason for this one! 😏 because only gravy belongs on a beef on week. It's the nectar of the working-man. What bougie snob decided to bastardize it with au jus? Probably some superior do-gooder from Up Upstate New York! It's why the Germans fight the French. Wings: Nine-Eleven Tavern. Yeah it can be questioned. Bar Bill is going corporate, expanding... Welcome to suckitude (see Duff's) Pizza/Hot Subs: Roz's (S.Cheektowaga)... Lovejoy up there too...
  15. Even I am confused @ this The "Harvard of the Midwest?" Buff State is the "Harvard on the Scajaquada." Take that Xavier! Anyway... I thought that honor went to Notre Dame or Northwestern... Sorry. I digress too... I rooted for the Jazz and every team that played the Bulls during their two 3-Peats. My old-timer boss from St.Louis loved to call Jordan: "Michael 'Walk' Jordan." 😆 I just wanted the fireworks and street riots to stop every June. I don't regret that. The town was insufferable. I love peace☮️✌️😌. Anyway... You're sick and demented 😉 😜 if you didn't root for the Raiders or Rams over The Cheaters. Don't you remember the "Just Give It to them Game?" Yeah Ralph's money to keep the Pats* afloat years ago too. That organization should have went belly up with the Celtics years ago. That would have been the true "Massachusetts Miracle!"
  16. 😆🤣 Made me think of this:
  17. I will see you and raise you a "Lovejoy Pizza." http://www.lovejoypizza.com/home.html
  18. I know you're a Celtics fan... But I could never understand how a BFLo fan could root for the Celtics. The Celtics single-handedly doomed the Braves in Buffalo. It should have been the Celtics that moved to the West Coast. Braves and BFLo fans should have never been the patsy for Celtics ownership. Celtics can rot in hell...
  19. ...Oh, Sam was up on top And I was on the bottom with the V We went for lemonade and Paris burns At the shop and broke for tea, watch out I collected from the lady And I cleaned the fanlight inside-out I was blowing saxophone on the weekend In that down joint What's my line? I'm happy cleanin' windows Take my time I'll see you when my love grows Baby, don't let it slide I'm a working man in my prime Cleanin' windows...
  20. You need to do a background check on those young starlings! 😏
  21. First bears. Now melanistic fish! Should I close the gates? I wouldn't want to wreck @BringBackFergy 's own private Idaho. Not in his backyard! 😏
  22. Saturday Morning Flashback on 93XRT is: 1988
