Durkee Famous Sauce

I have heard of it but never tried it. My Krogers has it. Like all else here I will pick up a bottle of it tomorow. Now I must have it. I will report back. I warn you...I have an odd palate. I may or may not like it. I do not like watermelon nor any melon! I was treated as a freak cause of this as a kid at big family picnics. I love liver and onions however. Blah blah etc etc.
 
Liver and onions at a picnic? Boy, you Yankees are ODD. :mstickle:

My dear Mother, may she rest in peace, made the best dang liver and onions on this green Earth! And yes she would whip up a batch sometimes for picnics and especially reunions. This is normal Yankee behavior. Who in their right mind, by the way, eats bottom feeding crawdads outta a brackish creek like some of you mis-guided folk down there in the land of cotton? Cant be healthy.:O o:
 
I like bacon with my liver and onions. But I only get a craving for it about every couple years or so. Mom loves it all the time. But, when we indulge our weird craving we have to put Dad out on the back porch with something else to eat and a clothespin on his nose - the smell of liver makes him sick!
 
Found it at Pavillions / Vons on the West Coast.

No recipes on the Durkees website.
Says: "Write to us for recipes" on the label.

Has to be a killer cole slaw recipe for this stuff.
 
Here is recipe for Cole Slaw made with Durkees Famous Sauce

1 package pre-cut cole slaw
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons of sour cream
1/2 tablespoon Durkees Famous Sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients together and enjoy.
 
I used to not be able to stand to smell or eat liver and onions smothered in gravy. A guy we call uncle Jim from Tn. showed me a recipe. You can't tell its not steak you're eating. Really Simple soak it in Whole milk for 24 hrs. breaks down the smell and strong taste. It has to be whole milk not 2% or skim.

Thanks! I will try that for sure. I have problems with dairy - which happens to be my favorite food group - but this should be fine. (Why the government persists in putting dairy in the commodities boxes I'll never know.:confused: Sister picked up her box and had to give half of it away.)

it should be alright. Also Guess I should point out don't use the milk to make the gravy, defeats the purpose. lol.
 
I had no idea Durkee's was so old! It's very common among my family and friends, tends to be on tables whenever there are hot dogs.
 
IIRC Durkee ' s famous has a restaurant in either L.A. or San Francisco that was famous for prime rib fixed with Durkee ' s famous sauce.I was there in the winter of 65-66 and I can't remember exactly where it was, but it was a memorable meal.
