White Trash Cocktail Party! by Baby Huey
Now that Halloween is over, ThanksNewYearsMasTine's day can start. Lots of family gatherings, which can mean only one thing: finger foods and booze. Finger foods are nice, booze is necessary. Very, very necessary. Now, we could do some high-falootin party, with bubbly wine and foods with french names, but fuck that, son. It's time for a white trash cocktail party. All of these recipes are things that I had when I grew up in the middle of nowhere Ohio. These recipes are so easy you could do them with 3 other people in your trailer's kitchen and you wouldn't even feel cramped. I also want to thank Kali for her help in thinking of recipes. I'd call these hors d'oeuvre's, but that's a little fruity. Finger Food #1 - Dried Beef Rollups
Finger Food #2 - Snausages
Finger Food #3 - Mexican Cheese Dip (NOT fondue, because ... again, not French)
Finger Food #4
Now, it wouldn't be a cocktail party without cocktails, and I've got one for the ladies, and one for the gentlemen. For the Dudes: Take a case of PBR. Put the cans in a wheelbarrow full of ice. For the Wimmins - Jungle Juice: 750 mL Everclear Take one of those big coolers that you put the gatorade in at football games. Put all the ingredients in there except the ice. Stir to dissolve the kool aid powder. When it's dissolved, add the ice. You shouldn't worry about this getting watered down -- you should PRAY for it. This will destroy you. ONTO THE METAL! God Dethroned I'm going to put aside my casual, unreasonable hatred for the Dutch for this, because this album kicks ass. Dutch death metal masters God Dethroned are back with their eighth studio recording, a heavy opus with much broader influences than in previous efforts. Other efforts have relied on shock value in lyrics and artwork to add atmosphere to the album; not so with The Toxic Touch. The band has moved away from songs that are angry for anger's sake - a lot of the songs are actually quite sad, or at the very least introspective. This could be an effect of new members Isaac Delahaye (guitar) and Arlen Van Weesenbeek (drums) having an influence on the songwriting. I'm not sure. That's not to say the aggression isn't there. Henri Sattler's vocals are deep and growling, and the addition of Delahaye adds a nice thrash element through some shredding guitar solos. The album is very heavy, and definitely worth a listen. Recommended tracks: "2014", "Falling Down", "The Day You Died", "Typhoid Mary", "Away From Emptiness" Baby Huey has never actually met anyone from Dutchland. Archives |

I hate to admit how good the Mexican Cheese Dip is... A bag of Tostitos, the Cheese Dip and an ice cold can of PBR...
What did you expect ? My family lives in Kentucky, for fuck's sake...

I've been to a lot of these parties, though I can say I have never in my life seen that saurkraut cream cheese thing.
Turtle made a drink like jungle juice once: Thundercoolers!

Frio Pie is awesome.
I would also like to form a coalition of people to defend the right to use potato chips as a topping of choice for casserole.

here's one i got to eat a lot on the coast:
a couple of packages of cream cheese.
some cocktail sauce
cocktail shrimp/Krab (not real crab)/flaked whatever-you-caught-out-of-the-river-this-morning.
you can use one, or all three.
Spread the cheese out on a serving plate. Pour the cocktail sauce over it. dump the shrimp or other seafood on top. Serve with crackers.
A variation i saw but refused to try was done with A1 sauce instead of cocktail sauce.

oh an' i know ain't a one a y'all from the South. No one's said "We don't cotton t'that shit 'roun here" yet. praise jesus.
Posted by: pril | November 7, 2006 12:38 PM
OH SHIT that's my mom's specialty. We mix a buttload of garlic into the cream cheese, first.
Posted by: baby huey | November 7, 2006 12:49 PM
Pril,
White trash isn't confined to the South. We just have it perfected. But I have seen just as many (in a percentage of population kind of way) in Idaho, Wyoming and in some areas of Arizona.
As for your cream cheese dish, my wife makes a CC dip with Pickapeppa Sauce (similar in taste to A1). And it's great with crackers. Don't know how it'd be with seafood though.
BH,
I ain't trashy, I is klassy. If we aint goin on Jerry, then I'm callin Ricki!
Yew go a-heed and go on Ricki. I'll just yews that time to screw yur wife agin.
Posted by: Cullen | November 7, 2006 12:50 PM

Down here in Texas there is a BBQ chain tha makes Frito Pie with chopped brisket, onions, pinto beans, bbq sauce, and jalapeƱos. It is absolutely delicous.

As a native Tar Heel, I can safely say that we don't use "'We don't cotton t'that shit 'roun here' yet. praise jesus." too often. It's more like "y'all ain't from around here, is ya?" :-D
Huey, remind me to give you Mrs. Norb's sausage ball recipe when you're here next month.....it's redneckilicious!
