Sep.08.2008 A sundae…with meat?


While clicking around Flickr, I stumbled across something odd and enrapturing. It’s called the “hot beef sundae” (which, surprisingly, is not a sexual term yet…though it should be).

Sure it looks like a healthy snack, but what about its ingredients?

Only at the Iowa State Fair – a Hot BEEF Sundae. It is comfort
food at its finest – a bowl generously filled with hand-mashed buttery potatoes surrounded by
slow-roasted fork-tender roast beef topped with savory beef gravy, sprinkled with Cheddar
cheese and finished with a ripe red cherry tomato. It is sure to satisfy the heartiest of appetites.

“We are always looking for new ways to promote beef,” states John Mortimer, manager of the
Cattlemen’s Beef Quarters. “This is our twist on an old favorite. Everyone loves hot beef
sandwiches and we’ve made it portable.”

According to the news release quoted above, it originated in Iowa a couple years back. Thank God it’s made it to the mainstream. Uh, the mainstream of Nebraska.

Yes, I’d eat it. I’ve also eaten a Luther Burger after making it myself though, so maybe I’m not the best indicator of caloric judgment.

    Heart attack on a plate.

    Seth’s Book might be a lower calorie version.

    I wonder what state this is available in.
