Spent most of my time working with the crew from Pressure Cook with Ralph Pagano (MOJO HD). He was "hired" by the guys from The Shack as part of the Hawaii episode which will air in December. Fun times had by all and Ralph's creation that day was pretty darn good too. It was my first time to the event and it was pretty fun.

You shoulda got the spam musubi. Char-grilled marks? That's impressive as anything. The spam burger from the Shack--maybe it just tasted good, because it looks really strange. I kept thinking....spam pork hash? On a bun? virtual tip>>>$$$$ :) uhm…that’s like ordering the lone baked potato at a deli. You shoulda got the spam musubi. Char-grilled marks?

I eagerly await the Spam Jam each year, but this year I made a bad choice by going with the place offering steak & garlic shrimp for 9 bucks! (It wasn't one featured in any of your pictures) When I picked up the container, it felt oddly light and I thought: "Uh Oh!" When I opened it up at home there were only 3 shrimp & a baby shrimp, an okay amount of steak, only one scoop of rice, and a scant amount of salad. It was disappointing in both taste and amount of food. Shoulda gone with one of the spam entrees! Rant to follow, look away if you must!

And the Hawaiian Spam pizza looks even more wrong. Seems like they could have finessed both of these a bit more by using smaller bits of Spam and by distributing the toppings. Where is the pride?
