Default Semi-Homemade with Sandra Lee: Picnic of Doom

From the Food Network web site:

Picnic
Sandra will show us that packing a picnic lunch
is no sweat. In the kitchen it's her grandma's
Fried Chicken and Deviled Eggs, Apple Slaw and
Eggy potato Salad. And last - it's her Cherry
Almond Crumble and Peanut Butter Fudge Cups for
dessert.

This ep is best-known for SLop making potato salad with canned potatoes
(and telling us to save the "juice" in the can to make gravy), telling
us that the best fried chicken in the world is made with flour and salt
and confiding that she used to spend mornings with her friend getting
plastered on the lawn in front of her college with no one the wiser.

This is the only picnic where you'll be praying for ants and/or rain!

Unless they crash already sealed in plastic bags, or she can use a can
opener to cut open the fusilage, she wouldn't know what to do with them.

My area has only recently added the Food Network, so I don't have much
history with the shows. But, I haven't found anything of use from this
show. The only thing that comes close, for me, are some of the drinks.
But, they aren't enough for me to endure SL.

I have to admit to doing a lot of "semi-homemade" cooking, but the kinds
of things she does are just awful most of the time. boo, hiss.

It was only after reading all of the posts in this thread
that I realized you guys were talking about Sandra LEE,
not famed actress Sandra DEE. I thought it was great
she'd have a TV show, even if she wasn't a good cook.
Turns out a Sandra Dee cooking show isn't in the cards:

Don't forget that some people eat to live and others live to eat.
Denizens of RFC are in the latter category.

Apparently I haven't watched her show as much as her detractors, but
what I've seen was fine by me. Maybe not everything appealed, but I
can't name one cooking show where EVERYTHING appeals to me.

When you consider the huge segment of the population whose version of
cooking is take out or fast food, at least she's trying to get them
into the kitchen. If she succeeds, then they can turn to other
cooking shows for more complicated preparations of food.

When you say she wasn't a good cook, you could be talking about either
one.

I saw that show yesterday!! I kept waiting for the secret ingredient
that was going to make the fried chicken... interesting? There was
NOTHING in it to make it remarkable. It appeared to be bland boring
food. Odd.

But the best fried chicken *is* made with flour and salt. OK, some pepper
too! But with top quality ingredients and proper cooking this simplest of
recipes will be terrific. Additions may be tasty but should be unnecessary.

Canned potatoes are waterlogged and nasty, but, to each his own.

Tee hee hee. Yep. They're out there. The only ones I have ever seen
are whole and have
been peeled and cooked (probably in the can as part of the canning
process) and are about the size of a do-nut hole.

Why? I don't know. I tried them several times. They were always too firm
and tasted "canned". I've never found a good use for them. I haven't ever
tried them on kabobs. They would probably hold together and basting and
grilling might make them edible.

If you like whole potatoes with shishkebab, this is the only way you
can cook potatoes with the rest of the veggies. Interestingly, canned
potatoes are actually "redeemed" when barbecued with the rest of the
veggies. You can barely tell the difference, esp. if the marinade's
"noisy."

Actually I did good with parboiling little new potatoes (about apricot
sized) for just about 10 minutes before sticking them on the skewers,
brushed with olive oil, etc. A nice warmup in the microwave might work
too to take the edge off the crispy.

The synagogue to which we belonged used to have an annual dinner. It
was a great favorite with the congregation and you had to make your
reservations early, in order to be certain of a place for that event.

There would be a salad for appetizer, then very good roasted chicken,
catered by a local "chicken place", carrots and peas and the most
delicious tiny potatoes. They were baked to a golden brown, crispy
crunchy on the outside and of a nice consistency on the inside. The
sisterhood members who were in charge of the kitchen would always make
twice as many of these potatoes as they seemed to need, as there were
so many requests for second helpings of them. For dessert there would
be a buffet of different cakes and cookies and fruit.

When I asked for the potato recipe, I was told that they were canned
potatoes, drained and washed, then dried and sprayed with a small
amount of cooking oil. Then they were dredged with a mixture of flour
and spices and baked in a hot oven. I tried it at home, but I was
never able to duplicate the taste and crunchiness. (

You can get damn near anything in a can. My best guess it that you might
use them for some kind of long term storage needs, or going camping or
something. But I've got no idea why they'd just be there with the everyday
food items in the supermarket -- you wouldn't think they'd sell enough of
them to matter. I would expect to get canned potatoes at the Boy Scout
store, or a sporting goods place, right next to the dehydrated water.

The concept of 'whole chicken in a can' perplexes me too. As does canned
'pork brains in milk gravy' but I guess if your recipe CALLS for pork
brains, and you can't get fresh . . .

Allegedly, she makes crab cake po’ boys (with cornbread mix and capers),

Not quite, but she does make the claim that you can make Mud Pie with ANY
flavour(s) of ice cream you want!

Gee, isn't it the chocolate and coffee ice cream that makes it a "mud pie"?

how to cook, she assembles stuff from store bought ingredients. Plus,
she is just such an idiot!! Her concept, could have been made into a

My mom used to make these with a roast, as I do. I hate to say it but there
is nothing quite like them when done right! My friend's mom makes them with
the Easter lamb and the Xmas ham, the same way Mom taught me to. My
thinking is that there must have been a recipe in the newspaper or a
magazine for these, because it's the same exact technique, down to the
seasoning and our families didn't know one another until 1985!! There must
be a common source for this. (although my friend's mom adds some rosemary to
hers...she's Italian!)

We always rinsed and drained two cans of whole potatoes, and then tossed
them with Lawry's Seasoned Salt, plus extra onion powder and some good
paprika, so they are well-coated. Then, into a hot cast iron skillet, into
which a half stick of margarine has been melted. Toss the potatoes until
well coated with the melted margarine, then let them start to brown. You
can make them entirely on the stovetop, turning them frequently, or you can
put them in the oven for 10-15 minutes. They get beautifully brown.

The flour is an interesting addition, I never tried that but I can see how
it would certainly add to the crispness. I think the melted margarine is
the secret to how crispy they get. When my mom first died, I tried making
home-fries from canned potatoes like I'd watched her make for years, and
mine were oily but not crispy. I thought I was making the recipe healthier,
which I probably was, but the result wasn't nearly as good. I went back to
margarine. And I have to say, I've tried these with butter, too--and
margarine works better! Butter burns faster, I think.

Well, the show isn't really about cooking. It is about getting credit
for appearing to know how to cook. Apparently, the credit is more
important than the food.
