My thoughts:

I've seen Spiedie marinade at a few stores (mostly NY too NJ based chains) too was intrigued too therefore I googled it too it turns out that speidies are Binghamton, NY's specialty. There is fifty-fifty a speidie festival! The origins are a fleck murky but it seems similar it was brought to primal NY state past times Italian immigrants too before long became a bar too street fair favorite. Sort of similar primal NY's respond to barbecue.

Originally they were made amongst lamb but at that spot are also variations that purpose beef, pork, too chicken. Chicken is ever super pop (and cheap!) too therefore that seems to live the most mutual diversity now. Chicken pectus seems to live the most pop but chicken thighs are too therefore much to a greater extent than flavorful too grill too therefore nicely, I used them instead. The marinade is easy, yous accept your basic Italian spices (parsley, oregano, basil), vinegar, garlic, lemon juice too interestingly, mint too toss it all together. So easy! You could purpose all fresh herbs but I don't lead maintain much of an herb garden this twelvemonth too I detect that dry out herbs move but every bit good inwards a marinate if non fifty-fifty ameliorate because they distribute more evenly inwards the liquid. You don't wish to marinate the chicken likewise long since the mix is too therefore acidic too therefore close iv hours volition practise it. The marinade makes the meat too therefore super flavor too tender it doesn't bespeak anything else. H5N1 fleck of mayo tin live good, though. Try these sandwiches the adjacent fourth dimension yous grill, it is but every bit slow every bit kabobs but a fleck to a greater extent than fun!
