Turner Fisheries at the Westin Copley Place is featuring the Back Bay Spiedie our version of the popular upstate New York dish. Come join us for Shrimp Spiedies made fresh every Saturday…
From Wikipedia:
“The spiedie (pronounced /spi:di/ “speedy”) is a dish local to Greater Binghamton in the Southern Tier of New York State, and somewhat more broadly known and enjoyed throughout Central New Your state. Spiedies consists of cubes of meat. The meat cubes are marinated overnight or longer (sometimes for as long as two weeks under a controlled environment) in a special marinade, then grilled carefully on spits (if steel skewers are used, they are called “spiedie rods”) over a charcoal pit.
The freshly prepared cubes are served on soft Italian bread or a submarine roll, skewer and all, and sometimes drizzled with fresh marinade. The bread is used as an oven glove to grip the meat while the skewer is removed. The marinade recipe varies, usually involving olive oil, vinegar, and a variety of Italian spices and fresh mint.” Learn more about the spiedie.
