Bread Roast beef, potatos and gravy...Yummy, yummy.<br />But I did not get at first what they were talking about - it refers to the grade of beef that was used to make these samitches when they were first made......Commercial is a lower grade of beef.

You would never get a sandwich and crisps (chips), let alone a hot commercial with chips (crisps). But that is not to say that people would not buy a pre-made sandwich in a plastic box and also buy a packet of crisps (chips) in a shop (commercial premises).<br /><br />Ugh now I'm confused.Old BEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06974090439936326476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-2052065982289329732009-04-13T13:10:00.000-07:002009-04-13T13:10:00.000-07:00ok give me the # to the greasy spoon and I will ca...ok give me the # to the greasy spoon and I will call her and ask her just WTF is up with that made up kinda name. <BR/>I would have had to have said something not so sweet when she shot back at me like I was the idiot!<BR/>JEEZZZ <BR/>small town folk!<BR/>hehe <BR/>ScrappyDKG aka Scrappy Doohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06614974219487708243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-62378791157687552012009-04-13T06:56:00.000-07:002009-04-13T06:56:00.000-07:00No. I have no idea what you are talking about at a...No. I have no idea what you are talking about at all.

The child in me SO wants to drive back down there (central, southern Minnesota) and point out to her that she's the only one using that expression and it's time to stop now...<BR/><BR/>Mary -- I've never heard of the "inside" children either. Would've thought it was the kids she didn't let out of the house!<BR/><BR/>Crisps/chips, chips/fries, tater tots/???. I can't say more about that without getting hungry, and I'm hours away from lunch...<BR/><BR/>I do agree that a Hot Beef Commercial sounds like something in the porn industry; and while I briefly considered a career in WRITING porn, I think I'm gonna let that go. (What?! I could use the money -- but perhaps not at the price it may cost my mind...)<BR/><BR/>And as a quick aside, troutay, you mentioned the pursuit of the perfect Hot Beef Sandwich. I, too, am on that quest! Be sure to let me know which ones are best. My father had a truckstop in Anoka in the early- mid-80s and they made the best HBS on the planet: beef from the roast, real gravy, real mashed potatoes. Gulp. I have to stop talking about this now.Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05261369905176088917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-90990576245916723522009-04-13T05:48:00.000-07:002009-04-13T05:48:00.000-07:00hilarious- a hot beef commercial........sounds lik...hilarious- a hot beef commercial........sounds like an add for a porn movie xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15047696858755347818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-638872497531617282009-04-13T03:42:00.000-07:002009-04-13T03:42:00.000-07:00And I thought you spoke English over there!

Especially since I have a friend who is on a life long mission to find the perfect hot roast beef sandwich (we don't call it sammich, only G W. Bush calls it that). So, I know hot roast beef sandwiches and cafes here in MN. And if something was labeled as a "commercial", I do not think I would order that.troutayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11890447950305607314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-53660728051042816172009-04-13T03:01:00.000-07:002009-04-13T03:01:00.000-07:00Hot Beef Sandwich.
