Many of you are aware of Roland – prolific CU poster and predatory Bristol dancer. Some of you know that Roland has two great obsessions – Bono Pizza and White Castles.
So the question was posed – much like the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup – what if you took two great tastes – that (could) go great together and put them into Rolands stomach.
Dateline: Short North, Sunday October 19th – about 8 PM.
A certain CMH Gourmand walked in to Bono as Roland was finishing off a pizza (89% chance it was a #2).
I spoke with Peggy and explained what I had in mind – I think she was a bit taken aback. I showed Roland what I had (8 assorted White castles) and he flinched.
Roland was defeated by the Dagwood and humbled by the Double Beanie Burger – but tonight – Roland was going to give the devil his due. The Roland Pizza was going to happen.
The concept was then presented to Bill – Iron Chef style -”and the mystery ingredient for the Roland is……White Castles”. Like a true champ Bill thought it over, realized it was wrong and in spite of the fact that he was pretty sure this was an immoral culinary act he decided WTF and went for it.
The Roland was sampled by six impartial CUer’s including Roland. The verdict – good, maybe very good. The soul exception was a certain Brit with a genetic disdain for Midwestern meat products.
Making The Roland had no negative effect on Bill – but it did seem to mess up his hair.
Would Roland order the Roland again – no. Would I order it for him and make him eat it – yes. Suggested pairing with the Roland – Highland Estates Pepperoni infused Vodka.
Public Service Announcement:
Bono has a new Almond Crepe – it rocks Roland’s socks.
Stay tuned for more Iron Chef challenges at Bono – the next special pizza may be Antelope Summer Sausage.
That’s funny, I just saw Roland a few hours ago and he was still hale and alive! :lol:
Still Alive!
Just like Eddie Vedder, dammit :lol:
Unlike our librarian friend who fled the scene… :P
A trooper??? you only managed one slice….
“Essex food” she hissed.
Liar. There was no hissing and it would have needed chips (french fries) to make it Essex-esque.
Q: What do you call an Essex girl with a five pound note on the top her head?
A: All you can eat, under a fiver.
In that case, he probably meant to say “Stayin’ Alive”.
I think Roland should bring this fine dish to the Slow Food potluck.
Oh, I think Roland knows better.
Besides, rumor has it the man makes an awfully good chicken paprikash.

White Castle meatballs would work great at a potluck. Buy a crave case. Put entire crave case in a food processor(plus some spices and other ingredients). Take the “slider mush/pate, and form it into one to two inch balls. Place in crock pot with a red sauce or cheese sauce and let sit warming up in the crock pot. Serve with spoon. Ear with fork and knife or as a “meatball sub”.
My dad has been making these for years, and they are pretty bomb.
Does that recipe include the cardboard?

I’m not sure, but that would certainly add some fiber to your diet. :lol:
Here’s a quick recipe I found that is different that how my father makes them: SWEDISH CASTLE DELIGHTS [url]http://www.bigoven.com/33563-Swedish-Castle-Delight-recipe.html[/url]
You may have seen mention in this thread of the Three Meat Martini – this is no hoax, it exists and it happened in Columbus.
Back to Bono – two items of note:
The Number Two Pizza – is now known as the San Rolando:
Tomato sauce, Mozzarella, pepperoni, and sausage
Bono is launching a new mascot for advertising:
Roland McBono will be making several appearances at Bono ToGo this fall.
I’m not much of a martini fan, but I was impressed at how something so beautiful could make my stomach turn so fast. Bravo!
This is only fitting — the perfect tribute to one of the city’s most upstanding citizens and one of Bono’s most reliable patrons!

I will look forward to this!
As long as he doesn’t wear that felt pizza-wedge costume that our server wore that one night.
