Michelle Obama's Outrageous Superbowl Menu!

[WildCat]

Care to share your recipe?

I just rubbed the 2 roasts with garlic salt, cayenne, onion powder, and McCormick Italian seasoning (which is marjoram, thyme, rosemary, sage, oregano and basil), skewered them on the rotisserie and they spun happily around on my Weber grill until rare, about an hour. Roasts cook fast on a rotisserie!

Then I refrigerated them for several hours before slicing them on my little home meat slicer (oh how I'd love one of those big deli slicers!) and putting the slices in a container with whatever juices were on the plate, along with several cans of beef broth to make up for what was lost in the grill. Refrigerate overnight (optional but allows the flavors to better permeate everything), then just bring to a simmer in a pot and you're good to go. Serve on Italian sub rolls with some hot giardanera.

I started with about 7.5 lbs of raw meat, I had about 10 people over not counting the 2 vegetarians. There was only enough left over for 1 sandwich for my lunch today.

You mean you never heard all the stories about how she purposely ran down her cheating ex boyfriend and got away with murder?

The only place I ever heard that mentioned was on Family Guy. And I thought they were just making it up at the time. Outside of that I've never heard anyone go on about it.

Americans are weird! And funny! You seem to be able to play political games with even the most trivial of topics. Even some of the posters in this thread appear to be taking this (somewhat) seriously.

Well you see some people just hate it when anyone in authority suggests a healthy diet because it signifies the downfall of America or something. Apparently the USA is only powerful so long as we continue to eat ourselves into early graves.

Or, to appear politically neutral, they had foods and beers associated with both cities/regions of the teams playing in the game. You MIGHT be reading a bit too far into this.

Oh, yes, I saw that as well, noting the beer from PN. However being as I didn't see coal on the menu, I don't know what food might have been representing Pittsburgh.

Oh, and I'm not reading into as much as am I tweaking those two Bears fans for having to eat bratwurst and watch the Packers play in the Super Bowl. For those of you unfamiliar with American football the Bears and the Packers are two of the oldest teams in the NFL and have the longest standing rivalry in the NFL, going back even to the days of the AFPA when the Bears were still based in Decateur and called the Staleys. The First Family publicly came out in support of the Bears for the NFC championship game, thus for those Wisconsinites who make their political decisions on this basis no amount of bratwurst will redeem them for that 'political error.'

Pennsylvania is a swing state too, which may explain why Michelle clung to a gun and a bible during the game.

LOL!
Yes, they were just trying to appear hip to both states during the Super Bowl, it not being a day to push diet standards without possible public relations damage, as silly as that might sound to our friends overseas.

I heard that she committed murder

Yes I am aware of that and the play it got. It was a silly story that got too much play regardless of how little it got. But with the current First Lady just about everything she does gets that kind of criticism.
I dont remember Laura being criticized for where and when she vacationed, her literacy campaign, of how she dressed when meeting foreign dignitaries for instance(s).

You know what they say, "Philadelphia at one end, Pittsburgh at the other, Alabamba in between."

Sure explains the Dover trial.

This is where the false naivety of the left fails. No matter how vicious their slimer merchants such as Ted Rall are, they claim to never see the vitriol being delivered on their behalf.

Laura Bush being criticised for how she dressed when meeting foreign dignitaries.

Laura Bush being criticised for how she dressed when meeting foreign dignitaries.

I stand corrected..... sort of.

 

[Achán hiNidráne]

Brats and Kielbasa on the same menu?!?! WTF?! Make up your mind!

Here in Wisconsin, we have a pretty large population of German and Polish-Americans, so the mix of the two sausages at cook-outs and tailgate parties are not at all uncommon.

 

[Achán hiNidráne]

As for Super Bowl food, I wasn't invited to any parties. The pre-game dinner consisted of a couple of stuffed pheasants with green beans and sweet potatoes. Snacks during the game consisted of a bag of microwave popcorn.

Paaaaaar-ty.

 

[thaiboxerken]

Hate the Obamas, or love them, you've got to admit they have no class.

Maybe not NONE, they did host a party.

Ah I get ya. Yep, they're still black. Glad you pointed that out.

 

[thaiboxerken]

If the party menu consisted of nothing but veggies and vegan foods, there would be an article about how Michelle is enforcing her food-nazi policies at the superbowl.

 

[Drysdale]

You know, if she was'nt preaching all the freaking time it would'nt matter.

But she does, including trying to bully schools and businesses to quit serving foods that she deems bad.

The equivalent would be Nancy Reagan being busted for dope.

No, it wouldn't be at all.

When has she done that?

I can recall seeing Michelle speak many times where healthy eating never once came up. Maybe "all the freaking time" means something else to those that are predisposed to hate her.

A better analogy would be someone getting upset at Nancy Reagan for using an anti-arthritis drug and then calling her a hypocrite.

Who won the Super-bowl by the way? I got got involved with a Matlock repeat at halftime and snuggy commercials. It was a good episode though, when he forgot why he was here and what he was doing. I ate KFC. I just couldn't tear myself away from it.

The packers.

What do the Obamas normally eat?

Thanks bright eyes. Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Yes, yes you do... all that beer, sausage, and cheese goes right to the gut.
