    For those that don't know, suet is this:

    220px-Beef_suet-01.jpg
    is raw beef or mutton fat, especially the hard fat found around the loins and kidneys.

    It's crotch fat.

    As far as spotted dick goes, here is what Wikipedia has:
    Spotted dick is a steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit (usually currants), commonly served with either custard or butter and brown sugar. Spotted refers to the dried fruit (which resemble spots) and Dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough.[1] Another explanation offered for the latter half of the name is that it comes from the German word for "thick," in reference to the thickened suet mixture.

    Crap. Now I can see this thread making sweet, sweet love to the pot thread. The **** love child will most surely crash the server.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Jstas, would you happen to have a recipe for some homemade creamed chipped beef? I think I have all of the ingredients that I would need in the kitchen already. I ask because I got the Stouffer's on sale the other day and they must have changed the recipe to save costs or something. I didn't taste as good as it usually does.

    Let me ask my mom.

    If I recall, it's quite simple to make.

    It is simple to make but you gotta do the flour thing right or else you've got yourself a mess.

    Creamed chipped beef was a staple in our house growing up. I'd really hoped to never see it again. :eek:

    Digiorno pizzas aren't bad at all, probably the best of the frozen pizzas, I also don't mind Red Baron pizzas. I also like those little mini tacos, they remind me of a Jack in the Box taco. They're good, but you don't want to know what the meat is.
