A Southern delicacy.

[RonB]

Fresh from the garden and hot from the oven. The tomato needs to be at least twice as thick as the biscuit and salt and pepper are acceptable. The only allowable change is a slice or three of bacon, but this is the original.

[ItsAllGoneToTheDogs]

They put a bit of Dukes mayo on 'em down here. Not my thing, I love all the ingredients on their own but just can't get into it. Now fried green tomato and bacon on a hot homemade biscuit? I'm down.

[FireMan]

Whenever I hear "fried green tomato" I think of "real good ribs".

[Donw]

"The secrets in the sauce." FireMan. I’m glad I wasn’t eating Big George’s ribs that week!

[Donw]

Favorite time of the year. All we have been eating lately are tomato sandwiches, even for breakfast. And we do use Dukes.😋

[RonB]

I also love a tomato sammy - had one yesterday.

[FireMan]

Ceptin the Dukes. Not available in any store around here.

[au4stree]

I grew up on Kraft mayo and discovered Duke's in my 20's. After my Duke's discovery i felt my life before that was a lie.

[HawkerXP]

Like ItsAllGoneToTheDogs said. Salt. Pepper. Mayo! Hellman's! a-ooooooooooo!

[Troutman]

Dukes please

[Troutman]

Weird sandwich

How long do you smoke that thing for? What internal temp do you take it to? What’s the recommended hold time? Dry or wet brine? Sliced, pulled or eat it off the bone to serve?

Should I soak my wood chips when I cook it, or leave them dry? How do I get some nice cross-hatch grill marks on it? Do you can it after cooking? If I hit it with a Thermoprobe, will I let all the juice out? Do I even need to probe it, or should I just pull it off when it feels like the flesh between my thumb and pointer finger?

Who the hell is Duke?!? GOD I’M SO CONFUSED!!! 😫

(Never thought about trying to smoke a tomato 🤔... guess what IIIIIIIIIII’M gonna do this weekend! 😃🙌

🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️

[HawkerXP]

There is only one Duke. John Wayne.

[holehogg]

RonB just curious did you remove the pips beforehand

[Troutman]

Duke's Mayonnaise, that's the true southern flavor !!!

[Cheef]

White bread.
Thin sliced tomato.
Salt and Pepper.
MIRACLE WHIP!
Proper way.

[RustyHaines]

+ 1 Cheef. Especially the Miracle Whip.

[Troutman]

Miracle Whip......git a rope

[Cheef]

Back in the day Mayonaise was for fancy folks.

[DiverDriver]

Ezekiel Bread, Cream cheese, garlic dices spritz of olive oil tomato salt and pepper here.

[FireMan]

Woohoo that sounds good.

[Bkhuna]

If you use miracle whimp, the terrorists have won.

[Troutman]

In the same aisle as the nooses

[Bkhuna]

Willy - Megalo Mart carries miracle whimp for all the Yankees that clutter up the south.

[DiverDriver]

ROFLMAO - I cannot stand Miracle Whip. It is disgusting and I eat weird stuff. Kimchi, anchovies, herring, octopus, the thought of that stuff gives me chills.

[holehogg]

Fresh sliced tomato between two slices bread buttered on the outside and toasted over hot coals turning frequently till nicely browned. I like to add thinly sliced onion. The better halves of my family like grated white cheddar or gouda with theirs.
PS. Must have grill marks.

[Bobby Q's]

Love a tomato samich! Heavy on the Blue Plate Mayo down here.

[North Carolina Mike]

2 slices of ripe tomato or one really thick one
2 slices of white sandwich bread
Dukes mayo
salt and pepper
Lean over the kitchen sink to eat it because no napkin and few paper towels can stand up to a properly made mater sandwich

[au4stree]

North Carolina Mike gets it.

[HawkerXP]

Stand by plants with salt shaker in hand. Pick tomato. Sprinkle with salt. Eat. Yum.

[gcdmd]

Ditto for ripe sweet corn. No cooking needed.

[Troutman]

This is one sort of bizarre post. I'm surprised no one has drug out the whole fried green tomato thing.

[Donw]

That thread comes in a month or so.

[ItsAllGoneToTheDogs]

I thought it was low hanging fruit...
