bosco Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 In-A-Gadda-da-vida???? lol CC, I never heard of it until I started reading about it on the egghead forum and the bbq brethren. Americans were getting Canadian members to send them cases of it. So one day I was at the store and found it and figured that I better try it.... Now it is a staple in the house!!

CeramicChef Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 TInyfish, Tony, sent me a jar 'cause is a prince among men. Or so I thought. Now I can't get enough! It is simply wonderful as an appiteaser on toast points with cream cheese and a little freshly fried up bacon. KIller! Thanks, Tony! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 What is this La Bomba of which you all speak so reverently?? I am intrigued!! Bosco, Ken had it correct - the song reference was to The Pusher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosco Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 La bomba is like a spicy antipasto spread. I use it in everything you can think of. I am dying to try it on a stuffed pork loin too. It's like pepper relish on steroids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 tinyfish, aka Tony, trip me out to this one, but Amazon only sells it by the case. http://www.amazon.ca/Allessia-Bomba-Antipasto-Spread-314ml/dp/B00W41TVC6 So, is it worth it??

bosco Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Totally worth it and that seems like a good price. It Is 9.00 a jar here. So I would say with the free shipping it's worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Turns out that the "free shipping" is only in Canada. It's like $13 S&H to the States. With the conversion to USD, it's like $6.25 USD a jar. Tinyfish/Tony is hooking me up with a jar to see how I like it before I commit to a whole case!

mguerra Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 I'm slurping down some 1999 Leoville Barton while my first try at Swiss Chalet chicken is out back percolating along on the KK. Boneless skinless chicken thighs marinated about 5 hours. It smells super duper! And listening to some Beethoven piano concertos... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hey Doc, you seem to be doin ok in life, why don't you spring for some new stuff? Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted January 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Good one, Robert!! Doc, killing me with the Malcolm Forbes bit again - 2nd Growth Bordeaux with Chalet chicken - GTFO!!! How the 1% lives!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I'm going to have to try the Swiss Chalet chicken again. I didn't taste anything. Next time I will cook it with one unmarinated control piece to compare against. That Leoville Barton was insanely good however, fully matured and balanced. A superb claret. As with spirits, since I don't drink a lot,I feel one should drink the best you can afford. And sometimes you will find ridiculous values from Bordeaux, most of my cellar are value items, with a smattering of high dollar stuff.

tony b Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Doc, did you have the dipping sauce with it? It's a "hand in glove" kinda thing. In addition to the overnight marinade in the zipbag, I also injected the bird with it. Try that next time to amp up the flavor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Just the marinade. I'll see if I find a date code on it; and look for some dipping goo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Both the marinade and "dipping goo" are available on Amazon. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LJ674TE/ref=s9_wsim_gw_g325_i2_r?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-1&pf_rd_r=18AR4DK1A7VX5AS2FY52&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2079475242&pf_rd_i=desktop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 I got it from Amazon, and, checking the pantry, I see I have two packets of the goo mix as well. The marinade was well within date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
