Pork Roll Sammies & Desserts for my Texas Friends
Mrs Bear & I were blessed last week with a visit from my Texas Friends, Gary S, and his Lovely Wife Bobbie.
We knew ahead of time they were going to try to get here, but we weren’t sure what day & time, so we planned to make something that wouldn’t take days to thaw.
I also wanted it to be something they never had, because they don’t live in this area.
We thought about Scrapple, but that takes too long to make enough for 4 people.
We thought about Deerburgers, but even though we think they are more Tasty than regular Beef Burgers, it’s not enough difference to be unique.
So we decided on Pork Roll Sammies on the grill, because they thaw pretty fast, and I can make enough for 4 on my grill, even with 2 slices per Sammy.
So I made the 8 little cuts around the perimeter while they were still stacked together, and then to the Grill we went.
It didn’t take long for them to get some nice grill marks and they heated up fast, because they were pretty thin.
They were all consumed, except there were 2 Sammies left for me for the Next Day!!!
Then Mrs Bear got out her Specialty of “Blueberry Zucchini Bread” and a new one she’s been trying “Shoo Fly Pie” (A Pennsylvania Dutch Specialty).
Mrs Bear thought the Shoo Fly Pie was a little Dry, but everybody else seemed to think it was Great.
We gave them a quick tour of the house & gabbed a good while, and it seemed like they were here for a lot less time than they were here. I guess time really does fly when you’re having fun!!
Enjoy the few Pics I managed to sneak in.

Here's 16 slices of Pork Roll ready for the Grill. If you look close you'll see the 8 cuts I put in each slice. Those cuts will keep them from curling up on the Grill:

After the Second Flip, and ready to remove & bring in:
Here I snuck a Quick Pic of Gary's slice of Shoo Fly Pie:
