Manly food...

So, I'm sitting here and drinking bourbon and eating some sopressata salami and frankenmuth cheese and thinking "this is a pretty manly snack"

What do you guys consider manly food? Besides the obvious steak/burgers/large roasted animals?

Anything really spicy. Really bold, assertive flavors, I guess, seem masculine to me.

Heavy protein = manly. Except for soy. Soy is as fem as you can get.

Raw broccoli or cauliflower.

I've seen grown manly men cringe at eating it.

So I would say that.

A hearty goat or beef stew with potatoes, carrots, tomatoes. The works! OR Roulladen served with German beer:-)

By the way the most manly food is obviously the still-beating heart of your enemy. Just so we're clear. but yeah we know steak is manly. Other shit, please.

You guys cook your food? Raw meat. Always. Off the bone of a freshly killed animal, of course.

I'm thinking smoked foods...that you smoked yourself (like kwilk suggested, bold, aggressive flavours).

+ Note: Only manly if followed by a bit of downing and that afterwards:

Now that I think about it, I've had a similar conversation before with a friend, and we decided that the manliest meal is something crude, raw, simple that you eat between your battles for nourishement, not for fun. So kind of like roasting a rabbit or eating some beef jerky you had in your backpack between battles.

By that definition, army rations are the manliest food in the world. I was always partial to beans & weiners (vintage late 80s) personally.

Sopressata is for girls; calabrese is the manly version.

that was what I was thinking - army rations, heated up over broken ammo boxes on a cold rainy night that you you be sleeping on the ground.


second place - steak tartare, or any other raw food

third - protien that you saw when it was alive - an animal you killed, a lobster that you chose from the tank

If it's cooked, it had better be over an open fire.
