So the neighbors just dropped by with a Christmas card and some sundries..

Among the items was this:



Some sort of pickled hot dog concoction...

I carefully opened the jar, made sure the jar made the " Hope I don't get Botulism, Hiss", and forked one of the wiener bits with a toothpick...

Hmm...

Kinda like a cross between pickled ham and pimento loaf...with a hint of clove.

Definitely plenty vinegary, so I won't worry too much about Botulism..

Might be one of the strangest items I've ever received for Christmas...

Odd? Certainly. Wouldn't skeer me though, I would be right behind you with a toothpick.

Did your neighbors actually jar it?

Could it be ...

A re-gifted present from Christmas past?




Does that make your tummy feel good?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....her last name's not Bobbit is it????

Pickled dicks?

If you fellows are like this now, I am sort of glad I was not around when you were freshman.

That is, assuming you are a least sophomores now.

you're one of us and you know & love it!!!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I mean the original post.

They remind me of Gus Glazer's pickled polish sausage.
They were likely a regional item.

back in Middle Earth, we'd call that a Mathom

I imagine they jar'd it. They can during the summer, so they know what they're doing...

No fever yet...

I was beginning to worry as I had not seen a post from you since you took a bite of Lorena's specialty!!

No, the pickled wienies won't do me in..

These bowl games on the other hand.....

You should ask to get a look at the canning room and see if they have anymore of these put up.

that looks pretty good to me

Shocker!!! Figured you would endorse.

DW I just noticed that they came up way short on the liquid head room. Should never be less that a quarter inch of liquid from the top. Sure hope you didn't really eat any yet!

Or maybe you had a drink of the pickled wiener h20, which whould explain the shortage!

I buy Big B's pickled bologna at Rural King. Looks a lot like that and it is dang good eats.
Bill

You still alive!!

reminds me of a time when me and my bud were shooting up a dump early Sunday morin with .22's, up pulls a fellow with a pickup box of qt/mason jared up foods -he was cleaning out a relative's cellar /old lady had died..... this was 79/80 ,the stuff had labels/dates from the...late 50's thru the mid 60's

Just make yourself a stiff drink and eat all you want, either it will kill ya or not. Won't know the exact reason your sick, course ya might not care either...

ahhhh the new fruit cake !!!

Millions of $$$$$$$$ to be made here. Get in on the ground floor

You are referring to the old gag that there is only ONE, fruitcake?
It gets passed around that much.

That's funny...


Turns out there's enough vinegar in the juice and salt in the hot dogs to probably outlast Pharaohs mummy...

Glad to see you're still with us!

Merry Christmas and please pass the wieners!!

great...head space argument in the food prep forum...

Pickled wienies.

I done seen it all now.......

Kinda looks good though. Through some hot peppers and garlic in there with some eggs and more wienies when you finish those off.

You'll be peelin' paint!

figured you would get it!!

LOL

Go, No-go, gauge?

was in the middle of a flame war when you posted this...can only handle one at a time

Too much wienie head space is not good.

I prefer a slight crush fit.







It feels better.
