beef sushi

not sure this is for me but...https://www.drovers.com/article/beef-sushi-foodservice-guide-beefshi-appeals-millennials?

Will "beefshi" be the next big food trend? The Muffarolletta is a classic New Orleans favorite made with beef salami, olives, capers and cheese rolled up with sushi rice.

Taco Maki – Nori, sushi rice, spicy beef jerky, cilantro sprigs and slivered radishes. Topped with Sante Fe style tortilla strips, queso fresco crumbles and Pico de Gallo.





Triple BLT Mega Roll – Roast beef covered in sushi rice, filled with bacon bits, arugula, beefsteak tomato, ground black pepper and bacon-flavored potato chips.

1. It's not a thing, and it's not going to become a thing.

Industry-sponsored "concepts" like this never get the kind of mindshare they want - it might end up on the menu at national chains, but there aren't going to be hip, independent beefshi spots popping up in NYC or Napa.

"Stop trying to make fetch happen!"

2. most of the examples sounded pretty gross to me

but then I don't do regular sushi either.

3. I was actually a little intrigued when I first glanced at the post

I thought it might be somebody independent playing with a fusion of Western-style tartare/carpaccio and sushi, I'd probably at least try that...but then I looked at the site; the Potato Stick Crunch Maki (hot dog, crunchy potato sticks, and onion dip rolled up in rice and nori) sounds like something my 6-year old niece would invent

4. yeah that one was particularly gross

but then there are "legit" things made with SPAM

5. Spam musubi is awesome!

Spam is just generic meaty-salty, when it's fried up with soy and sugar and dressed with the seaweed it actually works really well, nothing deeply unsettling in there like onion dip or thousand island dressing. The hot-dog nigiri sushi in the flyer would be almost the same if they didn't insist on Americanizing it with ketchup and mustard, blargh.

I worked with a girl from Hawaii years ago, she used to make it quite a bit for family meal...I liked it so much she got me a musibi press for Christmas

6. It is soft and gross

It has to be fried up just right and really crispy for me to even think of eating it. (I have texture "issues"LOL)

7. Oh, it totally should be fried

Definitely needs to be a bit crispy with a salty-sweet glaze for a good musubi...it's definitely not pleasant straight of the can!
