I hate to admit it, but for me, fried spam is
THUMBS UP...Yum... |
|
I spent four years in Guam, home of the highest per capita consumption of SPAM anywhere in the world. Denny's even has a SPAM Slam on their menu.
Can't say I ever developed a liking for it though.... |
|
My only objection to SPAM was the saltiness. Now there's low salt SPAM, so I'm happy.

Yes, I give Spam a big 'thumbs up.! Although, I probably haven't eaten any in the past twenty years or so, my memories of Spam have always been good.
I am certain that lordtrader would also agree! Eric The(Sorry,ButMizHunWon'tLetSpamComeIntoOurHouse,ISupposeSheHAsHerOwnChildhoodMemoriesOfSpam!)Hun[>]:)] |

I love spam with eggs, orange juice and coffee for breakfast. Thumbs up for me!
There is actually an ironman triathlete (2.4 mile swim/140 mile bike/26.2 marathon run) who eats spam everyday and is of course, sponsored by them. -websensei |

It's been years since I've had SPAM, but I still remember going on camping trips with my family and having fried SPAM sandwiches.
Haven't decided if that's a tradition I want to introduce my son to or not. Maybe I'll pick up a can for this weekends camping trip. |

If you have read my past posts, you will know that I am a big fan of Spam. I even make Spam sushi. Just like CA rolls, except instead of using crab meat I use Spam. MMMMM Yummy. I also make Spam fried rice, Spam Burgers, Spam omelletes and so on. I have a cookbook titled 1001 Ways to cook Spam.
Thumb up |

Fried Spam on toast with grilled onions and shredded lettuce with lots of ketchup! That my friend is real good eating.
Ten Thumbs Up! |

Thumbs up for me. My cousin dices it up, puts some tomato sauce, pepper, salt, and onions. It tastes pretty good. But if I eat spam, it's mostly fried (almost burnt).
|
|
I can eat it, as long as it's fried extra crispy
w/ mustard & american cheese. I can't say it's one of my favorites, but I usually take some on camping trips because it's quick & easy to fix. The wife can't stand it...something about all day fishing trips with her family during her childhood years. Spam every Saturday...[puke] |

Quoted: fried with hot sauce....MMM MMM good. No_Expert View Quote NO need for hot sauce, there is now Spicy Spam |
|
I can eat once in a while, so I guess that's a thumb up.
I just try not to think about what it is actually made of... Tyler |

Alright. You guys convinced me.
I'm gonna pick up a couple of cans for this weekends camping trip. Makes perfect sense, doesn't have to be refrigerated, easy to pack, easy to cook. Only question now is, what's best to accompany it? Ranch style beans, Bush's baked beans, chuckwagon style corn, cous-cous with steamed asparagus tips in a light lemon butter sauce? What do you guys recommend? |
|
Dice potatoes, about 5/8", chop a generous amount of chopped onion, and dice your Spam about the same size as the potatoes. Fry up the Spam first until the corners are crispy, remove and rinse the pan. Then add a little oil and a butter and fry up the potatoes and onions until they are well-cokked, add the Spam for a few minutes, serve next to your eggs.
I prefer the "Less Sodium" version of Spam. The original can be a little much for saltiness for my taste. Rich NRA, GOA, LEAA, CCRN 75 Miles from Austin, Minnesota, the home of SPAM |

Crackers is also a good accompaniment for Spam. Kinda give you that Hors' deourve feel. Spam cubed and added to Mac and cheese is another quick hardy meal for those camping trips. |

About the only way I'll eat Spam is fried crisp, but my wife is Japanese and absolutely loves it. When we went to Hawaii she flipped out when she saw Spam musubi (Spam & rice with seaweed) for sale at the counter of the ABC stores there.
Anyway, here's a different one - Rack of Spam [url]http://www.geocities.com/elindoll88/baths/spam.htm[/url] I haven't tried it (and won't), but for you Spam lovers out there - go for it! (edited to fix the link) |

Ears, snouts, and innards, A homogenous mass Pass another slice Cube of cold pinkness Yellow specks of porcine fat Give me a spork please Old man seeks doctor "I eat Spam daily", he says.

When I got married, my wife ate raw SPAM. I introduced her to FRIED SPAM and she's never gone back. YUM YUM! Fried SPAM is great! I think I'll go buy some SPAM tonight.

Spam in Alabama is only second to Boston Butt.
I like fried Spam, but GRILLED Spam is even better. Cook slow over charcoal on a Hibachi while camping, serve with rolls or biscuits and homemade Blackberry Jelly. An excellent Southern tradition. Another favorite I was introduced to on a Bear hunt in Western North Carolina goes like this: Slice spam into approximately 3/8" inch slices, lay slices on a cookie sheet. Spread yellow mustard evenly across each slice, then sprinkle liberally with brown sugar. Place in oven for about 15 minutes at 325 degrees, then put 2 slices on fresh Old Fashioned bread to make a sandwich. Sounds strange but tastes REAL GOOD! Got my wife to try it,now we eat it all the time. My kid loves it, he usually will eat 2 whole sandwiches. |

Sliced thin, fried crispy, slap it on some Wonder bread with horseradish and cheese!!!!! Chuck |

they put all that grease in there for a reason. you swallow without tasting. frying just ruins it. makes it unedible.

I only have Spam for breakfast.
Sliced thin, fried just cruchy on both sides (NOT BURNED), Tabasco drizzeled on when it first starts cooking, scrambled eggs, toast, fresh coffee! It's got to be time for breakfast somewhere! |
