Idiot Proof Garbage Plate

Good afternoon my fellow Idiots! Welcome back for another episode of Idiot Proof Cooking. I am super stoked about today's episode! I'm making the garbage plate, a famous Rochester dish originating at a restaurant called Nick Tahou Hots. Last fall, Meg and I drove down to Rochester for the day just to try the garbage plate and it was so good! Definitely worth the 2 hour drive. The combination of macaroni salad, homefries, burgers and meat sauce come together to make one hell of an amazing dish. So I've decided to make one for the channel today.

    This is truly a dish that you need to see to believe 😨😨 I almost thought you were pulling our legs, but when I looked it up it turns out you created a perfect copy of the original. Your enthusiasm for the dish really sells it for me though. Taking a day trip just for one dish is commitment 👍👍

    When I was crossing the border at Buffalo, the border guard was asking what my plans in the US were. Told him I was going for lunch in Rochester and he asked if I was going for a garbage plate! Hahaha Upper New Yorkers must love it

    Watching you put ketchup and mustard on top of all that work was an emotional rollercoaster, I won't lie.

    The Mac salad on most plates in rochester is very plain. Very little if any mayo, its not supposed to be creamy. My guess is elbow macaroni, a bit of white vinegar , mayo and water.

    the meat sauce does decently resemble chili, only thing it does seem to be missing in that regard are the peppers!

    this is how my brother ate, always. piled it all up and threw gravy, ketchup or whatever on top. he never heaved it back up, so its safe.
