Fried bar foods. (i.e. fries, fried cheese, wings, onion rings)

If the kitchen is closed, then maybe diner food? Nothing like breakfast at 3:30AM when you're drunk.

I won't do waffle House anymore. I made the mistake of going there sober once.

Oh, the 7-11's around here have decent Cuban sandwiches too!! Ask them to put it on that hot press thing and we are golden!!
 
you enjoy eating burgers in the morning. what's on your mind, Freud?:p

Hamburgers! The cornerstone of every nutritious breakfast.

Rotel tomatoes and velveta cheese. So terrible but so good.

Add some hormel chili to the pot and you'd be surprised how simultaneously amazing and terrible it is. :mug:

Wings! Oven or fry daddy, whatever dry rub I have in the cupboard, and almost exclusively the grocery store "party wings" that are already separated, no tips.
 
Chips & salsa.

Those frozen burritos or chimichangas that come in packs of 8 or 10.

French fries; man I LOVE french fries! And Tater Tots! Doesn't matter if you get them at a drive thru or make in the oven at home; I've made meals of fries and/or tots.

Frito pie.

Egg rolls/spring rolls; take-out is best, frozen is tasty too & easy, but home made is always exactly what I want, though it takes some time & prep.

Years ago it was virtually anything at the Jack in the box drive thru, they were the only place open at 02:00.

Fish sticks.

Cold peel & eat shrimp.

Leftover Asian food.

Leftover holiday (Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc...) feast food.
Regards, GF.
 
Stovetop Popcorn. Little bit of oil in the bottom of a pan, plus kernels (none of that microwave crap for me). Real butter and salt, quick turn or two of fresh ground black pepper.

Yes. We just picked up a Whirley Pop and I've been using it regularly. I use the Orville Redenbacher butter flavored popping oil though. A little for popping with, a little more for the butter flavor on the popcorn, a bit of salt. Perfect every time.

Also worth trying: coconut oil for popping.
 
I keep meaning to try the stovetop popcorn with bacon fat instead of oil. That can't suck.
 
I have made popcorn with bacon grease. It is great. You can't use all bacon grease it burns to easy mix half with oil of choice.
 
Not really a junk food but, when my MIL was a live-in she would make a large batch of 'Rendang' specifically for me, and another smaller batch so that everyone else could have some too.

What is this Rendang you speak of?

Add light misting of Cayenne pepper, add to paper bag, give a good shake.
Boom! :mug:

It's a Indo/Malay kind of stew but it's cooked down to the point that the "stew base" becomes a paste. We usually did beef but have done chicken too. Pork is possible but beinga recipe from an Islamic culture it will have to be adapted on teh fly to taste.

Tumeric, Galangal (Ginger), roasted dried coconut flakes (acts as a thickener and flavoring), shallots, garlic, lemongrass, pandan leaves, LOTS of coconut milk (5 cans per 15lbs of beef) for braising the meats, palm sugar, kaffir lime leaves, and lime.

Lots of recipes avilable online. Look for ones originating from either an Indonesian or Malay cook for the most authenticity. Takes a couple days to make from start to finish.

That sounds so awesome, I might just have to try making it.

I forgot to mention Lamb. Lamb rendang is amazing!

Serve it with Pratha or Naan (unleavened bread). Peel off chunks of the bread and use it to snatch up the chunks of meat. Side dish of rice is fine but, you won't need it.
