Gochujang Spam

[Finster]

just when you think you've seen it all.
New product coming to Costco in May..

That actually might work well in a Korean inspired stir fry!

I have a can of SPAM in the pantry, purchased just on a whim since I've not had it since the 1980's. I was originally gonna plop it on the smoker as a lark, but now think I will cube it up and use for SPAM-fried-rice.

Spam fried rice is a favorite here. I use original flavor Spam and add teriyaki sauce to it. It’s awesome.

[JCBBQ]

Yeah spam fried rice is pretty good. Thumbs up on that route

[captainlee]

No thanks, but my son in law will eat it up.

Due to my profession, I read this as unsolicited emails trying to sell me gochujang.....and I was like.....I am kinda into that.

I wrote a filter on our mail server to reject all Korean spam. Who knew I’d need to start filtering the Pit web traffic too? 🙂

We've had it in MN for a few months now, I love this stuff. Excellent when you sear it and then drop it in an asian broth.

OK, who are you and what have you done with the real Spinaker?

[Spinaker]

There is nothing I love more than SPAM. Smoker_Boy

[JCBBQ]

Yeah that seemed right in line with my perception of Spinaker.

[Jfrosty27]

I’m with Spinaker I think my fave is a fried sliced Spam, fried egg over medium, and American cheese sandwich on toasted sourdough bread. I used the sliced bread from Brownberry Ovens or something like that. So good.

[JCBBQ]

That sounds like the perfect use of this ingredient

[Spinaker]

Those crispy edges on the SPAM when you are done frying is divine.

I know I posted this photo before of my daughter’s shopping cart in the Lahaina Safeway, but it does show our family’s opinion of SPAM.

Giggle.....for a while I had something that looked just like that behind me in my home office, so it would show up when ever I was in a video meeting. People who knew I did email security got the joke; people who didn't know I did that....were *very* confused.

jfmorris Jim, you could keep it simple. I don’t know if you could beat fried spam on white bread with mayo.

[jfmorris]

That is the way I last had some - at my Grandmother's house back in 1985-86, after mowing her lawn or raking or something. I went to college (commuter) near-by, and would pop over there to do stuff if I had a couple of hours between classes, and she would make me fried SPAM or bologna sandwiches on white bread...

I eat this about 2-3 times a month. There is a place called Faka’s Island Grill where I work.

Used to have spam and eggs for weekend breakfast when we were kids lot!

Pro tip: use the spam can to shape the rice log...gotta love it

I just stumbled across this, but I posted in SUWYC our musubi made yesterday. Yum.
