GT Dining has a partnership with the food trucks of Atlanta, we get 4 trucks on campus a day for lunch. It's amazing (and expensive). But the BBQ Mac and Cheese and the lobster rolls and the crawfish andouille and chicken etoufee makes up for the hit to the wallet haha.

 

[nobuddy]

That sounds awesome.

Cookout needs to go far far away. The tray is so good and tempting. And the milkshakes. Don't get me started on the milkshakes. So close to campus. Ugh.

Or you could just have enough willpower to not go there. Despite my desire for ALL the Cookout, I really don't go over to the one on Western at all.


For that matter, I really don't go on Western to begin with usually.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Cookouts are starting to come to Atlanta. There's already one about a 10 minute drive away, but now one of Atlanta's oldest burger joints is closing (Zesto's) to become a Cookout at some point very soon. While I appreciated the history, I can't stand Zesto's burgers, so I'm excited...

I do now, I didn't in the past.

On the way to Detroit this weekend, my girlfriend and I stopped in Columbus for a three way.

That is the real name for this dish.

I tend to keep cheddar away from my pastas unless making mac & cheese with elbows or ziti. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that's not just plain ground beef? Technically your dinner was a 5-way, impressive.

EDIT: After seeing the name of the photo in the img tags I'm guessing that's chili. If there was ever a dish that was crafted by an inebriated individual that has to be one.

Actually, a five way would have had kidney beans and onions in it.

It's Cincinnati chili, which is a little different than what we usually think of as chili. It has a lot of spices in it, but not the kind that sets your mouth on fire. It also has tomato paste and unsweetened chocolate, which sounds weird, but it works. They usually put it on either spaghetti noodles or a hot dog, then top it with a mound of cheddar, along with the aforementioned onions and beans, if that's what you want.

I think this is the recipe I use when I make it at home. It's pretty close to the real deal, but takes forever and a day to make, so it doesn't happen often.

FWIW, from what I understand the closest to Cincinnati Chili you can get now in Raleigh is the chili at Roast Grill. Once upon a time, when we had a Hard Times location they had Cincinnati. And Terlingua. How I miss their Terlingua. And their cornbread.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Got some three cheese pizza pops

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Wife and went out tonight and we split a couple of plates. I had peanut encrusted Mahi Mahi with an Asian sauce of some sort. She had a Farro vegetarian risotto. Both were outstanding. I washed it down with a couple of green man porters.

Gotta get a four way with onions.

I like Skyline and there are quite a few of them close to my house but it's really easy to make at home so I find myself doing that more often.

I remember reading about them, but wasn't living in Raleigh at the time so I never got to check them out. I just had a brilliant food truck idea...

I actually had a four way with beans, which made me feel better about my girlfriend having a three way. No, I never grew up. I'm having too much fun with these names. Anyway, apparently the one in Westerville gives you your meal for free if it's your first time. Wonder if they all do that.

Do you buy the canned stuff or use a recipe? The problem I'm having, at least with the recipe I'm using, is that there's a considerable amount of prep time, then it has to stew for hours, then it has to sit in the fridge overnight, then be reheated before it's really right. And I'm a lazy cook.

Well a three way for your first time is rather impressive after all.

I'm glad somebody else is doing this. And no, I did not set that one up deliberately.

If you go, just remember, they're cash only, and for God's sake, whatever you do, do NOT ask for ketchup on your hot dog. Oh and remember the only toppings available are mustard, slaw, chili, and onions. I'm personally a fan of extra burnt with lots of mustard.
