It feels like this is obvious from first principles. To wit-

Yeah, that wasn’t in the original post.  But the edit makes it clear.

At what point do I add the meat back into the sauce?  The recipe says to set it aside, but never comes back to it.

I gotta get to the Bronx.

I like the Roman style “Pizza al Taglio” with prosciutto, arugula, and fresh mozzarella.  That would be my favorite pizza.

Once, my my days as an aspiring physicist I built an arc welder that exploded nails. I wonder if I could apply this knowledge to create a DIY hotdogger.  Wearing a welding mask is probably the safest way to use this anyway.

I have to run an errand in a location where there is a Portillo’s.  This is not in a part of the world I normally frequent, and so I’ve never been to Portillo’s before. Suppose I’m only moderately hungry, what would be the best, most representative order for my first Portillo’s visit?

I mean, recent historical trends have shown me that “things get progressively worse over time” so that checks out.

How big could this pork chop possibly be?  Are we talking like “if you eat it in 30 minutes, we put your picture on the wall and you get a t-shirt” territory?

I grew up in the 90s, but I never had one of these.  I wonder how they taste with an adult palette sans nostalgia.

I found the Super Bowl ads especially befuddling. Having never seen “Always Sunny” or “Game of Thrones” I didn’t realize that the guy with the stain on his shirt or the woman singing in the Audi were supposed to be people I recognized.

“Absurdly tender” and “cooked to order in a football stadium” seem like they are at cross purposes anyway.

Just the logistics of “tearing a steak with your teeth” seem unpleasant/unwieldy unless there’s some exceptional culinary acumen on display here.

Since I really don’t want to open the windows I think I’m going to do this in a pot on a single burner induction cooktop I can plug in outdoors.  Now I just have to check which of my saucepans are magnetic.

When I had my wisdom teeth removes I also had to be put under anesthetic. First thing I did upon waking up was “stand straight up and run into the opposite wall” at which point I fell down and drooled blood all over my white shirt.

I think the important thing is that the hypothetical “Timberwolves Hotdish Hat” is not a ballcap but something warm you can wear in the winter, like a PolarTec Fleece Beanie.

I’m glad it’s “select cities” since a Timberwolves hat with an image of hot dish on it would be the saddest thing I owned.

Still no leafy green cruciferous vegetable emoji?

As a Minnesotan who has voted for Amy Klobuchar a bunch of times, and someone who is interested in and somewhat knowledgeable about food, I have to say that I hate hot dish. I have yet to encounter one where one could not rearrange the same ingredients in a better way... unless it’s like a roundabout way to create a…

Now living next door to North Dakota, I’m pretty sure “keeping cold in the winter” is pretty easy but I am intrigued as to the best way to do it.
