The
Gut Bomb - our informal survey of the grub at Sturgis
There was a time, apparently before my time, when
legend has it that no one ate anything at Sturgis
except chili.
They
ate it for dinner, and lunch. And of course, eggs
are much better when buried under chili, and chilis.
It's the perfect beer food.
And this wasn't ordinary chili. It was chili with
no beans. Because to add beans to the fiery mixture
might wimpify it. And it might reduce the percentage
of the one ingredient that remains the item of overhelming
consumption at the Sturgis Rally - red meat.
The
exotic table of Sturgis foods
In
recent years the grills have become very popular at
Sturgis. It's kind of a gourmet grill food - grilled
or an almost stir-fried array of beef with vegetables
such as onions and green peppers.
The
quickly cooked meats and vegetables go on buns. And
it's a favorite. The streets are lined with big vendors
selling this for about $8.
The
Mexican connection
Every
place in Rapid City is jammed during the rally. Every
steak house and Chinese restaurant and pizza joint.
But the Mexican connection remains a dominant cultural
phenomina on the food front.
It could be a leftover from the old chili days. Or,
may it's due to the big contingent of bikers from
Texas and the Southwest.
The food in general can be quite good. The competition
for a lot of money is keen. And the good cooks rise
to the top.
