Wife swears you gotta eat Kabasi and sauerkraut for some reason. Two thumbs way down.

If that is supposed to be Kielbasa, then okay, I get it.

 

If it is supposed to be Kabasi, I literally have no idea at all what that is.

It's what you spelled. Too early and had no clue how to spell it. The meat isnt the problem, I think sauerkraut might be one of the worst things ever invented.

I happen to be a big Kraut fan, but I fully realize it isn't for everyone.

Funny, what you call Hanky Panky , I had always heard it referred to as blank on a shingle.

Growing up, on New Years Eve, we would gather around the table and enjoy fondue together.

New Years Day was more eating, and ham comes to mind

I've had lots of "stuff on a shingle", but it has always been a creamed chipped beef, very different than a Hanky Panky. At least in my vernacular, those are two completely different appetizers.

 

Interesting how things have different names regionally.

My family always had black eye peas and pigs feet along with greens and cornbread. I pretty much just ate cornbread on New Years. I don't find any of the dishes mentioned even close to edible. All of them reside squarely in my top 10 least favorite foods. All that's missing from the list are liver and muskrat. Why do people eat such disgusting things on New Years day?

I understand it the same way. "Stuff" on a shingle was always creamed chipped beef. I actually had never had Hanky Panky (which by the way is fantastic..creamed chipped beef...not so fantastic, although not awful) until I moved out here.

That is surprising to me. I'll let one of the foodies provide you their recipe as I'm sure I'm not the only one that makes them, and mine likely aren't the best. But the short version is this:

 

They are cheesy ground beef and sausage spread over a toasted slice of snack rye bread. They are yummy!!

The best hanky-panks I've had were made with Jimmy Dean hot sausage instead of ground beef.

 

I've also heard quite a few people call them "pizza bread". Seems like kind of a strange name to me, but I guess I get it.

No hog jowl and black-eyed peas? And you folks call yourselves country.

They’re from the suburbs of Cincinnati.

 

And my wife swears that sauerkraut is a German/Cincy thing.

I thought ham was a given whenever there are greens involved? I always make them with smoked ham hocks, but jowl bacon or cottage ham would work just as well.
