Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Steak Bomb

Lost me with the American “cheese”. That schitt has no place on the culinary spectrum. Might be some industrial use for it.

South Carolina version would have to be the chili slaw dog.

Chili, Cole slaw (white,not red), onions and mustard.

Other local dishes I’ve discovered - perloo, bog, hash…. Not in the same vein as the OP’s Steak Bomb though.

Now your talkin!

No onions to poison a dish. If it needs onions you are covering up the bad meat smell. RZ.

Just oysters, crabs and fish here.

But back in rural Georgia... streak o'lean grilled cheese sammies and hot sauce... still my favorite.

... and I didn't think anything could improve a cheesesteak sammie... count me the [intercourse] IN!



My kid's in Ft. Collins, but I'd gladly drive to the other end o' the state to try that. Is there a recommended restaurant? Or, would I need to bribe somebody with a 12-'er of Natty Light to invite me to dinner?



I'm a sucker for the green stuff, and make my burgers like that often, even if I have to use Mtn Goat:






I need to get down there to have the real thing. The Hatch festival is on my bucket list: one day, I'll make it happen.

As for a local thing? I shudder to mention what Cincinnatians call chili. I've never known a single soul who tried it for the first time without experiencing severe gastrointestinal distress. 🤢🤮💩

Even so, they do know how to do ice cream here.

Pretty good for greasing skids or laying a trap on dead mans curve.....

Just lay out all the individually wrapped slices from 4-5 industrial sized paces just past the apex of the corner, wait a few hours and enjoy your rice rocket flambee....

As is par for the course, some answered the question and others stumbled off into the woods.

Cut and posted from the original post: "Lots of places have their regional foods, and maybe some favorites to grab on the way home after a couple of pops with the fellas."

Does one stop in to buy lutefisk regularly for lunch or something to grab on the way home after beers with buddies to eat when home? How about that nice slab of beef served on a nice ceramic plate with mashed and au jus on the side? That a thing you can call in to pick up at midnight after shooting pool? Platters or sushi or a dozen raw oysters along with a bucket steamed crabs called in on the way home?

Here in New England anyway, most any town, depending on size of same, has between a handful to literally hundreds of sub shops/pizza joints in the big cities. You can get things like wings, chicken fingers, pies, salads and subs. A 'steak bomb' is but a slightly more robust form of the standard 'steak and cheese' sub. The fried onions, peppers and salami are standard on the 'bomb', but it comes however you like to order it. Hold the salami? Fine. No mayo? No problem. Add hot peppers? Sure. You want a different kind of cheese on your steak and cheese? OK, sure. Swiss, provolone, cheddar? Name your poison. No need to hate on another man's choice of cheese. Even if it's not quite a cheese. Hell, some consider that nasty, semi viscous bright yellow slop that they put on Philly steak sandwiches a cheese...

I rarely do chain type fast food joints, so like last night, with the wife already asleep and me not wanting to bother throwing anything together myself, called as I was leaving the club. Ten minutes later, I had my hot bomb in hand and headed home. Thought about Chinese take out, but outside the city most anything you're going to get will be American Chinese, and for a proper plate it'll cost maybe triple that of a simple sub. I've had and kind of enjoyed 'poutine', which is definitely a quick, cheap and common favorite in Quebec, but I know of no where close that serves it.

Bravo to those who actually understood and answered, with extra points to those who showed what they were talking about. Those tacos, sausages and topped beef patties are exactly what I was asking about: tasty regional casual favorites you can order on the way home. They all look damned tasty.

I answered properly.


There just isn't anything up here!


You lucky bastards.

I know you've been to many places and tried many things. Have you had boudin, maybe when visiting Roger in Texas?

Steak bomb? I think more along the lines of a gut bomb 😀 but I could like that!

Yes sir, I have, and love the stuff. Only had it off the grill the few times I've had it, but on my way out back home my hosts on my recent trip to S. TX gifted me--amongst many other awesome meaty things-- some wonderful looking boudin. Lousy pic, but you can see some of it in the top center.

I'm going to try my hand at making some jambalaya and gumbo with it. I'm thinking a big pot of gumbo with wild duck, shrimp and boudin would make for a fine meal.




Hey MM, I need to try some of those things you mention from SC.

And yes, Jim, you did properly answer, you poor, malnourished devil you.

I wouldn't put the boudin in the gumbo. Snack on that while you're cooking the gumbo, and use andouille for the gumbo.

Appreciate the advice. Is that due to flavor, consistency or both? With the rice component and the fact that those I've tried had a somewhat crumbly character to them once the casing is popped, I could see that boudin is not the best choice. Your andouille definitely looks more robust as far as holding together in slices for a gumbo type dish. Thanks, MM.

The flavor somewhat, but mainly the physical characteristics.

If you make your own mac and cheese you can load it with the boudin filling. That's the bomb.

Out here, you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a Mexican landscaper or a taco truck.

Carnitas, asada, al pastor, tripas, lingua, and shrimp are my faves. $2-3 each with either red or green salsa.

California, the good part of Mexico.

AZ may chat with you about that last claim...but enjoy real tacos!

one place here sells a big taco...
