Is New York serious with this “chopped cheese” bullshit?
- Thread starter zoggy
- Start date
Yeh other cities must be burning with envy right now that they aren’t known as the origin for a blended cheeseburger in a roll.
Chicagoan here and we, without a doubt, have the lamest and cheapest in the world in the form of the Maxwell St. Polish
Most cities have incredibly simple and lame food staples that probably anyone can do but why the fuck would i seek out another city for a fucking Maxwell St. polish? It's a Chicago thing, we had it first
Ghostface explains the issue the well I Raekwon's track, Shark Niggas
I read that as Maxwell Saint Polish (like shoe polish) and was really intrigued as to what the fuck food item that could be.
They got this place in Staten Island called Home Depot. You ask for my buddy Sal and tell him you want to make a chopped cheese and he will hook you up.
I bet that dude would actually sell you a stove with a flattop grill section if you asked him that.
I have a pretty decent comprehension of hamburger meat and plastic cheese.

You're right. I do not understand why New Yorkers' self esteem is so low that they have to "invent" things they didn't invent and sure didn't fucking popularize. That's like me putting fried shrimp in a hoagie roll and saying I invented the Po' boy.
What!? Who hurt you with that garbage crust?
Detroit style crust is crunchy on the outside and like a perfect cloud on the inside.
Ha ha ha ha, please, I don't think you can make a legendary, storied dish like the Chopped Cheese at home. You cannot possibly tell me that you have both hamburger meat and american cheese, you surely do not possess a spatula and if you have a functioning stove that would just blow my mind. Next thing you'll say is you have hoagie rolls.
They have these in Colorado at this placed called Smiling Moose. They call it the Big Mo and its fuckin great!
LOL yea New Yorkers say the water is what makes the bagels good.
Sure.
So I tried my best to recreate.
It was good. Compared to a burger, I would liken it as the difference between scrambled eggs with cheese and a cheese omelette. Chopped in about 4 slices of Land O Lakes white American cheese as I cooked the burger meat, and put half a slice on top of each serving. Didn’t have sub rolls so used burger buns. Condiments were ketchup, mayo, hot peppers, lettuce and tomato.
I rate it 8 gut bombs out of 10. Would eat again.

Fucking hell.
This isn't some delicacy. It's shit bodega food that is tasty as fuck. This isn't supposed to be some iconic NYC food.
The point of that video is that people in hipster neighborhoods in NYC are trying to make chopped into a thing. No one who likes a good $4 chopped wants that because they're afraid it's going to make their quickly gentrifying bodegas charge more for it.

yeah you are eating someone's shitty pizza. detroit crust should be thin and crunchy with a bit of moisture from the sauce.
Yup. Can't wait to see artisanal ass chopped cheese at Smorgasburg for $15.
Exactly!
Went to some upscale bars in Manhattan that were selling $10 chopped cheese. Talk about missing the point.
Well truth be told I only have the hamburger meat. I’ll have to swap out the hoagie and cheese slices with wonder bread and EZ cheese.
Seriously. When I made it at home a while ago my reaction was “this is pretty tasty,” and not “let me name this and make it a thing.”
How much for a nasty flat top with 5 years of food remnants on it?
Reminds me of that trendy bar that sold 40s in a brown bag for $15. Shit is hilarious and sad.
Hey I invented a sandwich called a Long Boi. It's just egg salad in a hot dog bun. Regardless, it is part of my cultural heritage. Here's a 40 minute long documentary about it.
I actually made that one time when there was no other lunch stuff in the house lol. I called it an egg roll, like a lobster roll.
People really need to stop buying Kraft singles. It's by far the worst American cheese. Go to the deli counter and have them slice you up some Land O'Lakes.
lol, I actually would eat the shit out of that, I love egg salad sandwiches
Franchise that shit.
Long Boi is the perfect name too.
"I am gonna get me dat Boi for lunch..."
"Here comes dat Boi truck...."
Looks spongey to me. But, like I said, you’re more than welcome to enjoy your Little Caesar’sWhat!? Who hurt you with that garbage crust?

I see that your trauma has affected your senses. I am sorry for your loss.
Little Caesar’s has definitely traumatized me. I think I’ll be fine on passing pizza that’s more air and wonderbread than food.
You could have saved me time by telling me you eat garbage. That shit is to Detroit style as their hot 'n ready is to actual pizza.
Get yourself some Jet's.
