Can Someone Please Fix Sir Beef’s Equipment?

If you have driven by Sir Beef over the past few weeks, you have noticed that the parking lot is bare. I drove by this morning to see a sign letting customers know that their “equipment broke” and has yet to be repaired.
Sir Beef is an Evansville staple that I hope does not go the way of Burger Farm. Hopefully the equipment issue can be remedied soon as I need my fill of beef, fries, cheesecakes and incredibly dirty, sticky tables. Yum.

dentaldan, I assume you are a dentist? orthodontist? my dad is a dentist, and named Dan, so The first sentence of your first comment I was like “wtf”
yes yes, you can all enjoy your memories
Hey Jenna, I know, how weird is that?
I saw that your dad is a dentist, but, his name is Dan?! That’s like parallel universe material. I’m a family dentist, if you want you can go to my website to check it out. I went to your’s, it’s nice. So you’re an IU grad and also looking into the peacecorp? Sounds exciting, and you are so well-traveled…wow ! I’ve been to Hong Kong, but not mainland.
So, how was your Christmas? Did you get any old Sir Beef coupons in your stocking ?!!! (chuckle)
@dentaldan: yep, my dad is Dr. Daniel Walker, DDS (while I’m sure you are a great dentist, I have to promote my dad ;) he’s great!)
No Sir Beef coupons–just plenty of Starbucks and Target ones tho. Yep, China, Japan, South Korea….with Canada, Mexico, and Caribbean thrown in for kicks.
Hey, I’d promote my dad too if I were you. You know what they always say, “blood is thicker than….uhh…..hmmm….sir beef loving webloggers”. Well I had to think of something approaching a witty remark! (I guess you can judge my wit level.) Remember, be kind. ;/
I’ve visited some spots like Germany, Switzerland, Israel, India, Nepal, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, and Mexico, (mostly when I was around your age though.)
You’re quite the active writer and I was really impressed at you being the food editor for “its evansville”!
Gee, I’m really taken back, you must have to eat a lot of places, I guess you must work out to balance out the calories….yikes. Sounds like an occupational hazard to me.
Jenna, I sent a reply from my office this PM but it’s not showing up yet on my computer at home. Maybe it’ll pop up here later.
I read that you are the food editor for this site. Whoa !! I guess that means that if I had a restaurant, and you ate there, and you thought it was as crummy as, say…..Sir Beef,….then I might incur the wrath of your condescending condemnation and criticism of my crappy cuisine. Thus as a culinary construction of concrete, my company could come crashing quickly or at least collapsing completely from the course of your creatively cutting comments…..or at least, that’s my crazy conception currently, of course unless you convey to me conversation to the contrary.
Can you tell I’ve got too much time on my hands due to Christmas vacation? If you are not about having fun with this, you dont have to feel compelled to continue this course. Just complain and it’ll cease.
(Sorry …It’s just that I’m on a roll and I’m having trouble concluding this crap!)
@dentaldan: I tend to be pretty nice in my reviews about places I ended up not liking. Justin has even accused me of being wishy washy in some. Sir Beef on the other hand ;) duh duh DUH awful.
Score for your travel, sounds awesome, especially, India, Israel, Nepal–3 places I’d love to get to. Now, if only the Israelis and Palestinians could stop the fighting so I could get over in that direction
Jenna, I wouldn’t look for that to happen anytime soon, since that goes back to Issac and Ishmael. 2 completely separate world views, like oil and water, lots of hatred as I’m sure you are aware.
I wish I could tell you a funny story or two about when I was in Jerusalem and Germany, Tokyo, etc. (that is if you are interested and/or have time to read them) It’s no big deal if you don’t. Probably aught to switch to another blog catagory or email if you do, since this is really supposed to be about Sir beef….sorry! Got any suggestions? I’m not a major blogger like you. Thanks for putting up with my silly, chattery entry on Fri. PM. I think I was bored.
maybe you should get a blog! Its more fun than it seems, blogger.com is an easy place to get started with blogging
I doubt that I’ll do my own blog because I probably won’t keep it up. And might not have time to do it consistantly. But I do find yours interesting as well as you, in part, because well you are full of opinions as well as unusual experiences. I don’t necessarily agree with all of them but with others I do…I could forsee some world view clashes but, hey, it may sharpen my views to discuss them with you as you may. I can see some interesting subjects to plod through.
So if you want, start a line of blog somewhere inside your weblog catagories and just let me know where to look. My email is dan-mmreynolds@mindspring.com.
How would that be? I’ll wait to hear back either here on this blog or if you want, my email.
As for this line of Blog let me give one more comment on the original focus of it’s creation….”Please, come back Sir Beef, or at least when I get to heaven, let there be a Sir Beef somewhere quietly tucked away on a less traveled back street, door always open, (1500’s decor can stay even if it’s nothing more than for the ambience). And even if Jenna wants to sit right aross the dirty table from me with her own sack of mexican cuisine that she brought with her, but the sole reason she has come is to torment my every bite of it by talking about its vomit inducing quality while I chew and that I should spew it out across the room if I’d like, I wiil still find peace in each swallow, enjoying the dim lighting of the surroundings, my interesting company across the table, and the warmth of knowing the food is literally “out of this world.” Jenna, can we find middleground with that thought ??”
Does anyone remember the name of the company that used to sell Canned bbq Beef and Pork? It was in the 60’s and 70’s and probably long before that. I think the name was Paugh Paugh though that could be wrong. Does anyone still make it in town? My father used to love it, and so did I. Also does anyone have the old Wesson Grocery store chicken salad recipe?
