NASCAR vs Martha Stewart




A friend of ours just got her US citizenship, she is French and to celebrate a few of us are having a BBQ party for her. Her husband suggested one of two “American” themed meals. I won’t tell you which one we are going with. I like the gross generalization though, especially since my buddy Unc is a NASCAR fan.

A sample NASCAR menu:
- Grilling any kind of meat (ending up in a bun of some sort)
- Something with heavily processed cheese (Velveeta, Cheeze Wiz, etc)
- A salad involving mayonnaise (potato salad, cole slaw, pasta salad, etc)
- Potato chips and some kind of dip (e.g. french onion)
- Popsicles
- Bud in a can for the big people
- Kool Aid for the little people

A sample Martha menu:
- Clam bake (various shellfish; clams, crabs, lobster, etc)
- Or substitute clam chowder in place of clams, but still have the other
shellfish
- Corn on the cob
- Baked beans
- Fresh bread
- Sorbet
- Sam Adams Summer and a California white white for the big people
- Lemonade for the little people

I think the baked beans would more likely be in the Nascar menu. Martha is more of a vegetable medley type. Need to have all those pretty colors.

Sort of glad you might have that wrong. Would hate to think you watch Martha Stewart.
