Happy New Year to all my fellow Jewish Hunters

[Doug Hamilton]

Yes, Doug. Originally, the European (Romanian) Jews used goose breasts. But they switched to beef navels after immigrating to the United States.

I still use the original European Jewish recipe for making pastrami out of all the breasts of the bar headed geese and greylag geese that I hunt every wildfowling season.

Okay. One more Jewish meat story. It is quite customary to eat corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick's day here in the US, even among those of us that aren't Irish. It was known to be something that Irish-Americans ate a lot of here. In Ireland it is rarely eaten. When the Irish immigrants arrived in this country they mostly settled in New York. The butcher shops were mostly owned by Jews, who did not sell ham. The next best thing is corned beef. So even if corned beef was not actually invented by the Jews, we have them to thank for making it popular here. I love all of these meats! Come to think of it, I met up with a friend for lunch today and I had a Rueben!

I make mine out of spam-tobacco-pepper corns and a hamburger press.

When I worked in Ireland they had never heard of Corned Beef and Cabbage, nor had they heard of smoked butt and cabbage. I realized something we think is Irish is actually NewYork-Chicago Irish American fare at the conclusion. The Jewish influence on Irish American cuisine makes sense.

Worst food I've ever had in any world city was the cuisine of Cork, Ireland. I now understand why millions of Irishmen risked death on coffin ships to get to the States.

By the same approximation, pepperoni isn’t really Italian. It was designed by Italian American immigrants as a pizza topping.

That makes sense to me. My uncle (by marriage) immigrated from Italy. I do.not remember him ever eating pepperoni, or pizza for that matter.

Well I am Jewish and really appreciate the kind words from all the people here. It means a lot to have the support of these great people. I have found that not to many Jewish people are hunters but that OK ... Everyone to enjoy their own hobbies.
I thank you again for your support .
