Grilled Cheese and Worcestershire sauce.
Okay I’m gonna have to try that. Grilled cheese with mustard and apple works pretty well. Dijon mustard if you can swing it
My wife puts sliced apple in salad all the time. My aunt makes panini sandwiches with apple or pear slices on them. Apples are the best.
Growing up my Dad always put apple slices in salad. Is this not common?
Sounds interesting, will have to try the mustard. If I’m feeling decadent (and have the ingredients on hand), I’ll make myself a grilled cheese with pear slices and bacon on sourdough.

Dip. It’s a very thin liquid, so it soaks into the bread fast.
I would add the sauce just as the cheese melts, then put it back in to finish cooking.
I usually drench the top of the sandwich with it after cooking. Dont wanna cook out the vinegar and lose the tanginess of the Worcestershire
This sounds like a poor man’s Welsh rarebit https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_rarebit
“Things that sound like an awful combination”
I don’t feel that this one fits the bill. Why would those two flavours be awful together? Beef + cheese = good
It was just strange to me when someone told me about it, and when I tell other people they think it’s strange too.

Eggs on hamburgers are awesome, especially over easy!
I tried the peanut butter on my hamburger, and it is okay, but the peanut butter overpowered the hamburger imo. I’d prefer a grilled PB&J to be honest.
Peanut butter Pickle burgers are 🤌🤌🤌
I love burgers, I love peanut butter & I love pickles, I’m trying this the next time I make bugers!
Probably my favorite burger toppings. The slight sweetness with the sharpness of the Pickles and umami of the burger is just…unbelievable lol
Well, here in Italy they complain a lot about pineapple on pizza but then eat ham on melon
I always hated the idea to put beans and bananas together. It is a fairly common habit in my country, tho, but it’s a no-no for me in general.
But once I tried a Nigerian dish that had beans, bananas, shrimps and pepper and I absolutely fucking loved it. Seriously, the flavor was from another world.
Forgive the spelling but I think that’s called Egusi and the bananas are plantains, which are more savory than bananas. Really lovely fried!
Salsa with cream cheese. Looks like vomit, which is actually a plus because you don’t have to share!
My grandma used to make this. We call it pink slime.
It’s delicious.
Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)
Grate a bit of nutmeg in for extra points.
And making it with 6 cups of milk to half a cup of rice and simmering until the liquid is very reduced produces a very intense deliciousness.
It’s really nice with vanilla as well
In Germany, its called Milchreis and is a very popular dish especially for children. Rice (usually the thicker variants thats youd use for Risotto), milk, sugar, cinnamon
Hoo boy, chocolate, milk, and rice make a mean porridge. Check out “champorado”, one of my favorites as a kid.
Rice, milk, bit of sugar, vanilla extract and two sticks of cinnamon per cup of rice, grated cinnamon for presentation on top. Best christmastime dessert after tres leches cake and torrejas.
I’m gonna go with game genres, specifically roguelikes and rhythm-based games. They sound terrible together and yet, Crypt of the Necrodancer (and also Cadence of Hyrule) is the shit.
Turn based + time pressure is just such an insane combination. Makes the simplest games insanely harder, escalates the potential for blunders and at the same time enables flow. Bullet chess is similar in that regard.
Peanut butter is a massively underrated burger condiment.
A burger isn’t supposed to be sweet though…
Then buy proper peanut butter and not the American kind. Natural peanut butter is a banger
Not sure if all peanut butter variants are sweet? The only ones I have tried tasted savory, and some even felt somewhat salty. Maybe some have sugar added to them?
Bruh, peanut butter isn’t supposed to be sweet
The best peanut butter has no added sugar, some grocery stores have a machine that grinds salted roasted peanuts.
And yet we all add ketchup which has huge amounts of sugar in it
Peanut butter is not sweet though… Unless you are using the highly processed one with additives.
Sateh sauce with peanut base isn’t sweet and goes well with a variety of meats
Nutella and orange marmalade on an English muffin
Hamburgers with peanut butter and jalapeno.
Not too surprising, considering hot peppers and peanut butter are a SEAsian stable and veggie, bread and meat are fairly neutral ingredients
Couldn’t tell you the last time I had a cheeseburger without green Chile on it.
This is the first in the thread that I plan to try. It sounds like a great combo.
Non-Sugared Peanut butter on waffles is surprisingly good, it changes it to a savory snack rather than a sweet one.
coca-cola + hefeweizen = colaweizen
Sounds vile, is really tasty.
I’ve always seen that called a diesel, and it’s pretty damn good.
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork and it was damn good.
The liquids used for carnitas are generally: milk, Mexican coke, orange juice and water. I could see the cherry coke being bomb
Ya, anything with sour and sweet notes is gonna help the pulled pork!
Man, this definitely fits the topic.
I’ve done this with Cheerwine. Amazing.
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork
was that on purpose or by accident?
On purpose but I was quite high
Considering how sweet a lot of pulled pork is, this is no weirder than every drunken cook’s pot of chili con carne con cervesa con half of another cervesa.
Peanut butter goes really well in chicken flavor ramen.
We used to have a dude in our college dorms who used to sell Cup of Noodles with a spoon of peanut butter inside for like 3 bucks. It’s a GREAT and cheap meal after those late nights at the bar.
This is how I upgrade all my noodles. Everyone asks my secret to make them creamy and nutty. I tell them “Add the ingredient in your kitchen called ‘chunky peanut butter’” None of them believe me.
Also peanut butter and pickles.
Allllso peanut butter and jelly.
Also peanut butter and stir-fried broccoli
Peanut butter on a meat sandwich. Any sandwich. I like roast beef peanut butter combo.
You’ve discovered satay food. Satay chicken is awesome.
