Augie Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Beef on Weck has no equal So far I've found that outside of WNY the imitations are....just that, imitations. The Bills bar near me in ATL is OK, but not like WNY. Â Now the Ted's knockoff near me has great dogs. Â Buffalo has great food!!! A leading export.
Rubes Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 There's a guy here in Salt Lake originally from the Buffalo area, who owns a nice diner in town. He serves beef on weck on Wednesdays at lunchtime. Good sandwich, but it's not quite the same. Says he has the kemmelweck bread imported.
TakeYouToTasker Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 If he stick strong, not sticks, but sticks strong to the roster it's going to offer up a new popular local flavor.

Those folks needed the education! Unfortunately, it came in plastic bags and the salt would "melt" (humidify?) off the buns. Had to act quickly and carefully. A Buffalo guy's restaurant only a mile from my house has it on the menu daily, but the meat isn't consistent with too much grizzle at times and a little thick. (Yeah, I'm picky.) The Teds knockoff joint has beef on wreck, but they use flank steak, so I know that's just not the same. They do the dogs so well I stick to that part of the menu.

Â Now the Ted's knockoff near me has great dogs. Â Buffalo has great food!!! A leading export. I still go to Ted's every visit. I think their dogs aren't what they used to be. I will say that living out here on the west coast, folks have no idea about places that use real charcoal. We have a local SF business, Lazzari, that has a variety of good charcoal.

The Teds knock off here in Atlanta (Barkers Red Hots, the deserve the plug) has bags of charcoal for sale, that I'm sure no one has ever bought except for bizarro circumstances. The also have Webers mustard, and I'm sure they've moved some of that.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Poor Eric Striker. Went from beloved to potentially hated in only a couple days - all while never having stepped on the field. Â Everyone hates me on this board already anyways so I figured I would add more fuel to the fire...in a fun way. Just fun guys. Â Vietnamese fish sauce wings are as good or better than Buffalo wings. For those of you who have had them, please tell the others who have not how awesome they are. Â I'm am more of a sweet and savory guy (IN more ways than one) than a hot sauce kind of guy. If you have not had a chance to try good fish sauce wings, please do. Â Â Â Blasphemy!!! (and fish sauce is nasty)
Marty McFly Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Why is Eric Stryker no longer beloved? Â Fish wings? Gross. Garlic parm for the win. Yeah, I dont get it, what does fish sauce wings have to do with Striker? There's a guy here in Salt Lake originally from the Buffalo area, who owns a nice diner in town. He serves beef on weck on Wednesdays at lunchtime. Good sandwich, but it's not quite the same. Says he has the kemmelweck bread imported. I no longer live in Buffalo, moved to jersey in 96, what is beef on weck?
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Koreans know their wings. Â But I am not sure I could go for fish sauce on my wings; always smells foul. Yeah, you really need to go light on fish sauce. It's one of those things like Worcestershire sauce and parmesan and anchovy where a little bit mixed in with other stuff really amps up the flavor, but too much makes stuff inedible.
Nanker Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Sounds DELICIOUS! Â I had to buy new sneakers today because my wife refused to drive home from Florida to Atlanta with my well used tennis shoes in the car - even in the trunk! Something about those Babolat shoes seemed to imitate stinky fish sauce. Â Â PS - anyone know why I don't seem to have a "bold" feature using an iPad? No emoji options either. By 4,000 posts you'd think I'd have figured this out! You can roll your own wrt text formatting and emoticons. You have to bracket the text you want bolded using the letter b encased in square brackets before the text you want bolded. Then you end with a slash b encased in square brackets. The server and html do the rest. [ b ] text text text [ / b ] but remove the spaces. Â Same thing with emoticons. Next time you're not on a mobile device, click on "Show All" and you'll see the code to use for whatever smiley you want to use. They get bracketed with colons. : thumbsup : Â For the record, have never had Vietnamese fish sauce wings. Is that the same sauce as Chinese "Fish Sauce"?
Dr. Fong Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Fish sauce wings are pretty good. My favorite non-Buffalo style is Korean style, specifically from Bonchon. Man those are good.
hondo in seattle Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I don't like Vietnamese fish sauce wings because I don't like fish. Â When I make wings at home, I use my own version of a Korean Gochujang sauce. Â I made these two Sundays in a row and the Bills won both games. But then we lost the following week despite making the wings again. Still trying to discover the exact correlation between my Sunday eating habits and the Bills W-L record.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 Yeah, I dont get it, what does fish sauce wings have to do with Striker? I no longer live in Buffalo, moved to jersey in 96, what is beef on weck? Â BLASPHEMY!!
Marty McFly Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Â BLASPHEMY!! google it is....... EDIT AFTER LOOKING IT UP: Roast Beef sandwich with dip? Ive actually had that here in jersey but it was from quiznoes years ago and went by a different name and didnt come on the same super bread, needless to say it tasted like **** quiznoes is not gourmet food. I was just a kid when i was in Buffalo so I wasnt a foody back then, its hard to find the weck out here though im still searchin Edited May 7, 2016 by Marty McFly
Just Jack Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 google it is....... EDIT AFTER LOOKING IT UP: Roast Beef sandwich with dip?

That was probably a French Dip, not even close to being the same.
Marty McFly Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 That was probably a French Dip, not even close to being the same. Thats exactly what it was, not a fan for the record
Chef Jim Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I don't mind different kinds of wings, but I hate it when someone messes with or tries to improve upon the original. The original? They've been cooking chicken wings in China for centuries.
