Something I definitely approve of, the erosion of family life in London is the reason it is in the trouble it is in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for the sheer amount of food they turn out at such a fast pace, that the quality is better than its given credit for. Its more than edible. It's my road trip staple...

I recently (without thinking) ordered a double cheeseburger at the drive up. When I pulled up to pay & questioned the price, I was told I should have ordered a McDouble (for 40 or 50 cents less)! The difference in the sandwiches?...ONE slice of cheese. Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Goodyear shift change time you couldn't get in the door. I haven't yet been to Hamburger Station, but I hear they're just like the old Thacker's.

Yes and McDonald's finally did what America has been clamoring for for decades.....a reality TV star as president, no make that all day breakfast food! When the wife is out running errands on the way home she'll occasionally stop, I like Sausage McMuffin with egg, hash browns and large coffee, when you're just too lazy to cook, oh yeah!

I had the #56 Big Kahana Cheesesteak ($7.95 FREE) - mushrooms, onions, peppers, jalapenos, extra cheese better than their Philly steak. Wife had the #8 Club Sub $7.95 - turkey, ham, provolone, bacon plus fixins minus lettuce, I had two bites, fabulous. Better than Jimmy Johns!

mjp28 Posted June 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Just tried something new yesterday and finished it today watching Kluber now 9-2 and the INDIANS, we had a gift card for the OUTBACK STEAK HOUSE. Well we got the usual, bloomin' petals, Caesar salad, wife had the streak tacos (very good!) but it was before 4 pm so instead of prime rib and all the fixins I got: Steakhouse Philly* Ribeye steak sliced thin with our steakhouse cheese sauce, grilled onions and red peppers then smothered with melted White Cheddar cheese on a sub roll $12.49 Not super cheap or large but it was quite tasty with some really good hot fresh fries on the side. Not my favorite all time Philly Steak which is from the local Longhorn Steakhouse for $12.95 but not bad. ........oh BTW I just saw the calorie and other info on the steakhouse Philly Steakhouse Philly Sandwich CALORIES 1030.....I had it as two halves, still good!..... other stuff 550 61 33 0 210 54......

I think I'm losing my clout on our menu selections with the wife. She went all casserole and oven dishes crazy the last few months (great food and leftovers)....oh I ran across an easy slow cooker Italian beef sandwich recipe and sent you a copy to an old email address I had for you the 1948 one, 10 minutes prep time, 10 hours cook time did you get it? Wife liked it way simpler than the traditional Italian beef recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted June 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Philly Steak and other Steak sandwiches are one of my favorites going back to my Tony's Hideaway steak sandwich days at YSU if any of you guys remember that in the same building as the Bavarian House and above The Tomb.....all long gone now. If any of you are interested here is the slow cooker recipe, I've never done it. A traditional Italian Beef Sandwiches recipe is in an earlier post in this thread....I have done that many years back, a different flavor than just a regular and easy to make Philly Steak sandwich. Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches Prep Time 10 mins Cook Time 10 hrs..... Total Time 10 hrs 10 mins Load up on the delicious flavor of these Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches! A handful of ingredients are all you need to pull this amazing dinner off. Great for game day or an easy weeknight dinner! Course: Entree Servings: 10 sandwiches Author: Trish - Mom On Timeout Ingredients 4 lb boneless beef chuck pot roast 2 tsp salt 1 tsp pepper 1 tsp garlic powder 2 tsp Italian seasoning 1 15 oz can tomato sauce 2 green bell peppers, sliced 2 yellow onions, sliced 1 12 oz jar sliced pepperoncini (plus more for serving) 10 crusty sandwich rolls, split and toasted 20 slices Provolone cheese Instructions (note this didn't copy and paste evenly but there are 13 steps in the instructions) 1. Spray the insert of a 6 or 7 qt slow cooker with cooking spray. Drain the pepperoncinis reserving three tablespoons of the liquid. Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in small bowl. Trim the fat from the roast and season each side with roughly one-third of the seasonings. Place the roast in the slow cooker. Pour the tomato sauce over the roast. Top with the green bell peppers, onions, and pepperoncinis. Sprinkle the remaining third of the seasonings on top as well as the reserved pepperoncini liquid. Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours. Preheat oven to 250F. Use two forks to shred the meat. It should be so tender that it basically just falls apart. Using a pair of tongs or a slotted spoon, place the shredded beef mixture along with onions and peppers on the bottom half of the rolls. Make sure you let most of the liquid drain away so your sandwiches don't get soggy. Top the shredded beef mixture with additional pepperoncinis if desired, and two (or more) slices of Provolone cheese. Place in oven just until cheese melts. Serve immediately. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask any of the old timers there if they remember the down stairs Tomb (you could get your picture in the coffin there), Tony's owned by the mob, started many other fine bars from there or the B-house owned by a friend of mine who went on to open the Inner Circle pizza joint at YSU and others. Oh the Oakes was a bookie joint back when we'd pop in but when the mills were running they all were bookie hangouts for the bug and sports all over the valley. Ahhhhh, memories.
