Matt insisted on spiedies today, so we hit up a Spiedie and Rib Pit for dinner (1268 Front Street, Binghamton). This is a little place with Formica tables and a self-serve soda machine with lots of serious eaters inside. Really, I mean tables full of big guys chowing down. Spiedies are a Binghamton specialty. Marinated meat cubes are grilled and served on a hero roll with or without a bunch of other things. While the marinades are top-secret at some of these spiedie joints, I would imagine they are akin to Italian dressing. We both got a regular spiedie sub – nothing on the bun except meat so we could judge its quality. We both had chicken, agreeing they serve up a good sandwich, but next time we’d get the frills. The chicken was very moist, by the way, and both large sandwiches and two sodas set us back about $15.
Spiedies again
