    Food from all 50 states tier rankings.

    Interesting video from Joshua Weissman on YouTube. However, I about hollered at him saying pulled pork is just a B tier food overall.

    Cool! If you want to find your state quickly in the video, go to the comments….the 11th commenter has listed each state in alphabetical order and the time stamp in which that state appears during the video, it’s almost 34 minutes long.

    I mean using their scale B is fair. There's not an extreme difference between average and great pulled pork, though it would have been fun if they had done 3-4 sliders to try each Carolina sauce because they are vastly different experiences... and the sauce they chose is my least favorite.

    Overall an enjoyable video... my wife was happy to see Chislec not only represented but also done right (some places use very tiny chunks and that's not the correct experience)

      I was okay with my states chicken getting a b. But pulled pork is a top 3 food for me personally, so I would have been likely to go S tier.

      I also never knew that biscuits and chocolate gravy was an Arkansas thing. I grew up on em in North Alabama. I had a good friend who used to put mayonnaise on his chocolate gravy and biscuit. Don’t knock it till you try it I guess.

        Man….30 seconds on New Mexico. I need to invite them out so they can try some real food and eat Chile…not chili 😂

        at least they gave the green chile cheeseburger a decent score, but there’s so much more to this great state and the food they need to experience!

        I’ll have to watch the introduction on this, perhaps they only did one food item?? But thanks for sharing this! I’ll have to watch neighboring states.

          At least they need to check out Gil's Thrilling Website...!! That was our go-to.

          Yeah, he did one dish from each state based on votes from his followers.

        Interesting video. Some of those foods need to be tasted at the source. New Haven Pizza is cooked on coal ovens that are 100 years old. Can't easily be replicated in a back yard.

        At least clam chowder was New England style and not that disgusting red stuff.

          That’s the thing about a regional speciality. As talented of a chef as he may be, it’s not going to be the same as a dish prepared by a local.

          Joshua is a chode for his comment about the fried cheese curd. It’s definitely delicious and deserves the “S”.

          Nothing better than cheese curds that are made in the morning and then breaded/battered the same day and deep fried. It’s a food of the Gods.

          Looked like he had what was verging on a breading on those so-called curds; they should be lightly battered.

        I understand putting the NY pizza slice on for New York but the best food from New York comes from Buffalo. Let me present to you the Beef on Weck.

        Brian Lagerstrom has a great video on the Beef on Weck. The only thing I disagree about it is the addition of the “horsey” sauce. Real Western New Yorkers use freshly prepared horseradish instead of the sauce he makes.

          I tried Chocolate Gravy and Biscuits once. Pretty much reminded me of chocolate pudding on a biscuit. Not bad but not too good either. That was one of the rankings that seemed quite a bit off.

          Most of the other rankings were pretty fair overall. There will always be some quibbles on rankings like this but none of them seemed to be egregiously off.

            I don't want to watch this chuckleheads video, so tell me, what is chocolate gravy and biscuits and and from what godforsaken hell hole does it come from?

            Bkhuna It is apparently from Arkansas. And it is pretty much what you think chocolate gravy would be. It is basically a flour thickened chocolate sauce poured over biscuits. When I made it I thought it tasted like a really bad pudding. There are a lot of things I would rather put on a biscuit.

          Texas, Brisket smoked in a Traeger Pellet grill. Who could ask for anything more?
          No complaints from me.

            He totally missed on Alabama. First, white sauce is a Northern Alabama thing...not the whole state. But you put it on during the smoke/grilling, NOT after it's cooked. Cover it in sauce, put it on the grill, and brush it a couple of times while on the grill, the last time about 5-10 minutes before you pull it off. Don't add sauce afterward.

              Biscuits and Chocolate Gravy, a must-try.

                Pennsylvania, Philly cheesesteak… I dunno, I guess. It’s definitely the best known PA food. We’re pretty plain here in good ol’ PA. A B grade? Sounds right. An exceptional cheesesteak is still just a cheesesteak.

                There aren’t any foods exclusively associated with Pittsburgh other than Primanti’s, and that’s just a sandwich with fries and cole slaw on it. Otherwise, I think PA is just a place where we make pretty good stuff from somewhere else.

                  I always associate Pierogis with Pittsburgh even though we can get some good ones here in Ohio.

                  I don’t live in Pittsburgh any more, I’m in NEPA where pierogies are like tamales are in the southwest. But still you don’t order them in restaurants; they’re just not restaurant food. You order them in kielbasa shops for takeout, you order them at church picnics, etc.

                They hated scrapple 😂😂
                That's ok. More for me!!
                they didn't cook it right anyway.
