Must-Eat Food From Every State
This is the specialty of Missouri: dry-rubbed baby backs bathed in apple and cherrywood smoke for 14 hours, then given a light glaze in tribute to the saucier versions you’ll see at neighboring joints. These are the ribs you must try if you’re ever in Missouri.
Out of all the states, Montana’s got the most killer ribeye steak. A perfect cut of beef, perfectly grilled. You won’t get a better one in another state, especially if you go to Logan, Montana.
So, you may be surprised to learn that the reuben was invented in Nebraska. Specifically by the Blackstone Hotel. And while great reubens exist all over America, you have to try the original recipe made in Nebraska.
It’s really hard to pick a specific food in Nevada (and it’s clearly cheating to pick a casino buffet). So, we’re going with the cheap, yet delicious shrimp cocktail. You may get the chance to try it in some other places, but the hotels in Las Vegas really have the best version.
Like it’s fellow New England state, Maine, New Hampshire’s gotta-try dish is also lobster-based. Albeit, this time its fried. Even after the frying, these tails still remain juicy on the inside.
There’s plenty of different food that people try when in New Jersey, but the food that all who try it will miss is the pork roll. And this version with egg and cheese is especially delicious. It can even challenge coffee as the best thing to eat after waking up.
If it wasn’t obvious, the style name for this dish comes from its colors. It’s probably the best dish in Santa Fe, and the mixing of red and green chiles adds to the flavor.
New York is a cultural melting pot, especially in New York City, itself. But, the food that everyone associates with New York, the food that every state makes, but that New York is known for doing the best. That food is pizza. Is there really anything that needs to be said about it? It’s pizza, and plenty of other people already sing this variation’s praises.
It’d be a sin to visit North Carolina and not try some pork dish. So while, you’re there, make sure to try out this sandwich. It’s basically a small mountain of chopped pork in a bun, but the way it’s cooked and the other ingredients really make it worth your while.
North Dakota doesn’t have much of a culinary identity, so a lot of the food isn’t particularly interesting. And that’s where the bison burger comes in. If you thought beef was good, wait until you try some of this. There are also fancier versions of the meal garnished with shallot jam and aged cheddar. It still tastes as delicious as the regular version.
