"So,what food is indigenious to Indianapolis that I might serve in their honor as well ???"

Crack. I hear djk can hook you up from his old neighborhood.

Who dat coming to town to kick some Colt butt?

Who dat who can't speaka da English?

Sorry...I have an urge to punch someone every time I hear "who dat". It's getting really, really old.

homey can't handle the hurricane!

I live in a burb of Indy. The best thing we have going is fresh produce. In the summer the farmers markets are awesome. Sweet corn and tomatoes specifically, but also strawberries, watermelon, squash, zuchinni, etc.

Indy itself is definitley not a culinary capital. Most people go to steak houses. St. Elmos, Moes, and Mortons are a few that come to mind. They each have a dish that they are know for.

Milk has always been the traditional beverage of the Indy 500 winner.

There is also alot of pork production in the region.

Maybe a mixed bag of sweet corn(on the cob), fried squash, zuchinni bread, anything made with red gold tomatoes, and either pork or steak.

We in Indy like gumbo Wheel so you're good. Sweet corn's a bit tough in February.

Wheel, were as big a fan of good BBQ as anyone else in the country, How's about some potatoe dumplings? They make an awesome side dish for meats, esp. steaks!

Topped for wheel, I'll e-mail ya the recipe if'n ya like!

They really are aweome 🙂

Indiana has alot of Amish.You could make some of their cuisine.

Or go four days without bathing and act Amish.

tenderloin and elephant ears are awesome, but is that an Indiana thing? I thought it was fair food.

You could deep frie twinkies or snickers bars.
