#2 Meatball sub? Wow I could go for one of those right now.

Made a rocking, easy pasta sauce the other day:
1 lb ground beef, brown, about 2/3 of the way done (drain here if you do such a thing) added in shredded parmesan, oregano, garlic. When browned, poured in jar of mushroom sauce and added two string cheeses worth of mozzarella, melted it into the sauce. Added thin sliced green olives, one of those little jars of Tomato Pesto, basil S&P to taste, served topped with shredded parmesan.

I would have used mastaccioli, family wanted spaghetti. Cook al-dente or a bit less (the sauce will cook the pasta a little more), toss in butter, olive oil, garlic salt.

When making both, done in 15 minutes.

#3 Yum! Authentic fireman recipe! Unlike the fake Indian cookbook. This one is from a real honest to god fireman!

And no I'm not being sarcastic, Best food tend to be found in firehouses allover.

#4 Does NYC specifically mean Manhattan or could this be in any one of the boroughs?

#5 Pretty much any firehouse with a working kitchen of some kind works rjschwarz

There is almost always at least one, often several firemen who are pretty goof cooks in their own right! Yes there are duds, but rare to encounter those.

#6 Thanks SCFI - 2 boxes of pasta, quick, hearty, tasty, and we got 8 meals for about $12.

Now, there are three on the department who are quite proud of their smoking. Everyone and their other can cook, so imagine what the department + family feeds are like...oh momma.
