ITT: Midwesterners and Midwestern food only. Post your stews, casseroles, pies, sandwiches, and whatever else you're making

Pic related, Chicago hotdogs I made.Unfortunately since I moved from Illinois, I can't source the exact items. I have to resort to buying "hot dog packages" from portillos or directly from Vienna hotdogs. A bit pricy but worth the taste of home.

I live in Minnesota and the state fucking blows. There is no good native Minnesotan cuisine, only godawful stuff like hotdish.

Anyhow, the hotdogs look great. At one point I was on a mission to try every single type of hot dog at the grocery store, but gave up after a month or so because I was getting so sick of hot dogs.

I admire your courage and optimism. And yes he's a Russian Blue, got him from a breeder in Iowa, had to drive 6 hours there and back with a tiny crying kitty.

Also, I ironically enjoyed my childhood family vacation to the twin cities immensily, it's a cherished childhood memory, even if I despise Minnesotans/Minnesota today. It was like 20 years ago, so the state was probably nicer at the time, idk if you can confirm or deny that. Same thing happened to Illinois unfortunately.

>>14571441
Are you homos in Canada or elk Grove? I'm gonna assume Canada because every jewel/Meijer in the Midwest carries Vienna products, including the proper neon relish. If you live in a small town away from the influence of Chicagoland, there's really little "Chicago culture" that's permeated in other states. There's like 5 choices of hot dogs in the grocery store I frequent, none of them Vienna, they're all these super skinny flimsy pieces of shit. And the buns are all wrong.

>>14571460

In Illinois (maybe only in Chicagoland or in the suburb I grw up in) we'd only call a something assembled with all canned stuff a "hot dish", and they weren't that popular, had a couple over various Thanksgivings. Casseroles with non canned stuff was way more popular, my neighbor growing up made this shredded beef, veggies, and some kind of garlic peppercorn sauce that was to die for, all on mashed potatoes. God damn I really do miss home.

>>14571486
>>14571492
Obviously as a Chicagolander I can't fully agree with these statements, but I always did enjoy a coney and jet's pizza (that's unfortunately the only Detroit pizza I've tried). Generally I think a lot of Illinoisians have positive views on Michigan in general. Way better relations when compared to Wisconsin, Missouri, or Indiana that's for sure

>>14571497
In certain parts, they eat a decent amount of lake Michigan fish up there I've been told, way more than other Midwestern states like Illinois for example. Even though it should be renamed Lake Chicago/Illinois, fish from lake Michigan isn't super popular here, and seafood in general is way less popular than red meat over here.

Nah, Minnesota clearly is Midwest. The one that really crosses the line is people who say Missouri is part of the Midwest.

If it is, someone forgot to tell the locals. It's good stuff, though. I'd argue Cincinnati is the best city for food in the Midwest, honestly.

Nigga pretending wild rice soup doesnt exist, and the whole native food argument is retarded as shit as this country isnt old enough. So adaptions of Nordic and Germanic cuisine became the staple here. The iron range brought along Italians that quickly introduced porketta which is fucking delicious. Other stuff like popovers as well as enough baked goods that Minneapolis was known as Mill City

The Rustica bakery is one of the best in the country but I get the feeling you've never heard of it because your idea of cuisine is we "invented" a new type of pizza.
