This is just a quick message to say Happy Gobbler Day!  It seems fitting that TastyBurgher post a special message about Thanksgiving, because it is on this holiday that we stuff our faces with good home cookin’ just for the sake of the food.  We get all of our most favorite autumn treats and whip them up into one giant fantastic meal, and after a brief pause of reflection we delve in!  Some reflect on their thankfulness, others on how delicious the glistening turkey will be, taking a last deep breath before the feast.  It is a holiday born of a love for food, even in the old Pilgrims and Indians story, and so my stomach and I give it special treatment.  This year, I’ll be savoring creamed pearl onions at my In-Laws Thanskgiving table, and I’ll be sorely missing the potato dishes and jell-o concoctions of my own family.  Fortunately, I get to switch every year, but there was a time when I was in college and didn’t get to go back home for Thanksgiving.  May there be a few of you out there who are stuck all alone in Pittsburgh on Thanksgiving this year?

OK – it is finally time to write about Primanti’s.  All you people out there who don’t like it….I’m not even listening.  Yep, Erika is about to go into major rant mode, and if you can’t handle the extremeness of it then you better get out of the way cuz I’m on a rampage!  Primanti’s is delicious, unique, and absolutely 100% Pittsburgh.  Too hate it is to hate one’s self – you live here, it’s your identity, face it…. Let go of your hang-ups and embrace the sandwich! (more…)
