Family style dinner at the Kitchen Table in Myrtle Beach

[razpsu]

Hello everyone. We are starting family style dinners at the kitchen table in Myrtle beach and I need your help. Can you tell me the food that your mom used to make at the dinner table. Entrees and sides or dishes. Casseroles etc. We will be rotating dishes throughout the year and we love to put guest recipes on the Table! Thanks for your help and I look forward to the conversation.

Whatever they serve at 'Good and Plenty', a family style restaurant in Smoketown, PA (near Lancaster). They serve big plates and bowls of food to each table and the food is passed around the table, even among strangers, just like at home. But because of your location I would add lots of fish.

Edit: I remember have fried chicken and roast pork. There may have been a fried fish but I was more interested in the other two. Mashed potatoes, gravy, veggies, salad etc. I just thought of the name of the other place, 'Plain and Fancy', I think.

I was only there once, in around 1977, so they might have changed some. There's another place just like that one around the same area but I forget its name. Somebody here will know.

It obviously left an impression and though I've never been back, I remember it well.

Fried Chicken, Fried Chicken, Fried Chicken. It's hard to find GOOD fried chicken. Especially in Myrtle Beach. I'd also love to see fresh cut fries, and homemade onion rings. Don't do anything out of a can. Even if it starts from a can, at least fix it up a little. Nothing worse than going to a restaurant, and everything tasting like cafeteria food.
On a side note, it was nice to see you using redskin potatoes for your homefries! It brought back a little bit of home! (aka Waffle Shop) Haven't found many places in Myrtle that use redskin potatoes!

One family tradition for us was "grape nut bread". It was made with Grape Nuts (the hard cereal, not the flakes) and sour milk. I made the mistake once of drinking the milk that my mom had soured....

She also used to make roast beef with vinegar--I realized many years later, after my sister and I ate at a little German place in Columbus, that my mom was actually making a version of Sauerbraten.

And, of course, there was my mom's apple pie. Even my cousin liked it better than his mom's (which was also good). But my mom was the granddaughter of a German baker.....

Across from bear foot landing. We are also in Myrtle this week. Actually surfside beach. Hoping to stop by

Excellent come on up. I like the fried chicken and I'm working on that but it isn't easy. I like the Salisbury steak idea! I loved that as a kid. TV dinner though. Uh oh. We switched over to red potatoes for seasoned homefries because what we had when I bought it was not very good. We also use red potatoes for mashed potatoes

I remember meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Always enjoyed meatloaf sandwiches the next day on good fresh Wonder Bread.

Also beef stew.....lots of beef stew.

Cabbage rolls. Fried freshwater perch. Kolaches. Whoopie pies.

I would just say, living in NC, theses places are a dime a dozen and they're awful. Thus my comments on the paid board. If anything, nothing canned, it's everywhere, and it's awful. Expections are also higher now for fresh food because of all the cooking shows. Myrtle Beach, gotta have fresh food, especially fish and shrimp.

 

[Ranger Dan]

PA Dutch chicken pot pie (similar to southern chicken and dumplings)

PA Dutch chicken and waffles (waffles with chicken and chicken gravy on it)

Salisbury Steak with egg noodles

Chicken cordon blue (not super authentic, but still very good)

Pigs in a blanket (hot dog cut down its long axis, but not entirely through, fill with Velveeta cheese and wrap with bacon)

 

[PAgeologist]

I would have some lighter options. Being at the beach and assuming it's hot outside I would bet that many people don't want to eat real heavy. Again being at the beach I would also have a number of seafood options.

Not So Fast hit it dead on....
Pot roast with potatoes, carrots, onions and celery. Add the tomatoes that were canned over the summer and make a tomato based gravy.

Cubed steak. My mom would pan fry after a dunk in milk and then to flour. After frying, she'd put it in the oven while we were at Church. House smelled great (did the same with the pot roast).

Meatloaf as well, like other posters have stated.

In South Carolina, Sliced turkey on white bread smothered with turkey gravy and served mashed sweet potatoes. Also a must are thin-cut sweet potato fries with powdered sugar, collard greens and buttered stone grits for sides. For dessert have a good pecan pie, sweet potato pie and key lime pie recipe

 

[hlstone]

Chix Marsala with wild rice and baby peas
Linguine w/ white clam sauce
Pulled pork
All of these are cheap to make so you can make a profit.

[Nitwit]

Pork and sauerkraut with mashed potatoes

French style greenbeans with cream of mushroom soup

Stuffed cabbage

Sweet and sour meatballs

Creamed spinach

Creamed corn

Liver and onions with bacon

And a special version of this which I had at the South Philly Taproom - cream of tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwich. The special thing about it was the grilled cheese was really thick and floating like a large crouton in the middle of the soup.

raz - we're headed your way next month. Where are you located?

Also, I'm planning to bring my bicycle and was wondering if there are any nice paths near North Myrtle Beach, or how safe is it to ride on the road?

 

[razpsu]

Hey lion. Looking forward to seeing you. I'm not sure about riding on the road in July. A lot of drivers from other places that do not know where they are going. I usually ride the beach in the off season and that is a good time.
