Great review. Good channel to subscribe to. Thank you for the content you provide.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you for subscribing!

I like this dude, he eats like he means it.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you. I do take it serious.

[@gregnewman2512]

I've watched a lot of GCK, but I've never seen you devour a sandwich quite like that Chicago Italian beef on the French bread. Seriously, I'm convinced I need to try it. Thanks for the heads-up, man. Go Bruins!!!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

That was definitely one of the best sandwiches I ever had. What year did you graduate from Ballard?

[@gregnewman2512]

@@goodallscountrykitchen Class of '83. I didn't play ball though, bc back then I was a little too slight. You probably, if the years coinside, lined up against my buddy Mike Nielsen who played O-Line. Pretty sure you were on Defense, right. What's yr grad yr? If I had in high school the body that I have now, I'd be a nose tackle!! Seriously though, I've been playing catch up on your episodes and have enjoyed every last one. You've shown restaurants that I've always thought about trying and so many that I need to try. Many I didn't even know existed under my own nose. Heck, I live one minute from Vernon lanes and didn't know they serve delicious burgers! Beeritaville is another one, didn't know about their fish/oysters. But, the one I'm trying first is the Med/Lebanese place on Brownsboro as I like to try ethnic food. Usually don't go to ethnic places bc I feel like I don't know what I'm doing or what to ask for. Thanks to you, I feel like I've already been there. Great job, sir! I'll keep watching.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

@@gregnewman2512 thank you. I have a great story about your friend Nielsen.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

@@gregnewman2512 I graduated in 84 but started at defensive tackle as a sophomore. Destry Fallen was your star running back. I played across from Dean Showalter. It was probably the best game I played in high school. Neil son was sent in to replace showalter after the first quarter. I was having a field day., but we ended up getting best 17-0. Ballard was ranked 1st in the state at the time.

[@gregnewman2512]

@@goodallscountrykitchen Haha, good for you, man! Nielsen and Fallen both received scholarships from the same (I believe Catholic) school in Ohio. Lost track of Mike, tho Destry rode same bus to and fro school w me (he lived next block over, tho may as well been another world) I never spoke w him. Anyway, it's been a pleasure, and I'll continue watching. I know a genuine human being when I see one, and you more than fit the title.

Love the way you eat 👍 Just like me nothing go to waste and the sandwiches look delicious 😋😋😋

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

They’re awesome!

[@shawnkirk271]

How you were able to keep eating that soup without cooling it off ANY. Amazed me ❤😅.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

It was too good to stop.

[@TheLesporter]

My grandfather would boil his coffee. Then fill his cup and get after it. My mom would fix her plate and put it in the microwave till it was smoking and then eat it. Don't ask me how they could handle the heat. Great comment.

[@briangeraghty3190]

You're hilarious dude I usually go to the pizza parlor and hold my pinky up.. I really enjoyed your videos man keep them up

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I just try to be myself and keep it totally real.

I cant get anything done as I am addicted to your channel. LOL I need to move to Louisville!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Sure. Why not?

[@backoftitaniumgaming]

I wish i lived out that way to try some of this food. I live in the Triad area of North Carolina and don't do a lot of traveling so this will probably never be something i get to experience. Thank you for making these videos so that people that would never get out that way can enjoy it by hearing your descriptions.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I’m glad I could bring you some food joy from Kentucky! Thanks for watching!

[@greenQT]

Man, you can put away some food. Love it. Thanks for trying it all. Karla in Cali.

It was my pleasure!

[@johncornell3665]

That is a great looking sammich, corned beef amazing. Thanks for video!

[@lewisoneal3987]

I've been looking for a place with a really good corn beef. Never knew this place even existed thanks for the introduction of this place. That Italian beef looked like the real deal you can get in some big city's like Chicago. Great review like always.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I go here often.

[@zuess8018]

I get a kick how you wash all that down with a Diet Coke 😂Keep up the awesome reviews 🙏

[@patchouli8899]

Such a good and interesting video. I love sandwiches, and would rather have a sandwich over anything else! I love Capicola (hot w/red pepper on outside) on my Italian sandwiches, along with Prosciutto. Boar's Head has those Italian meats, but now I can get my sandwiches and soups at Block Deli. Those soups sound delish! Esp. the Argentinian stew!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

You’ll thank me after you go there. Everything is so good!

[@beauK2166]

Boar’s Head deli meats are the absolute best!!

[@tomcarl8021]

Depends. They do turkey well, but ham, salami and cheese, imported is better.

[@telawsonartzy6880]

Barry my friend , great review on another great place , & you are like me & waste nothing , I worked out of Chicago years ago for about a year and a half , they have some great Italian beef sandwiches up there & I like Giardiniera which is mostly a celery base (almost like soupy broth) with onions, garlic, hot red dry chili flakes , etc...they'll even dip the whole sandwich in the broth with tongs. I have not had much fo😢od from India, & there is only 1 place nearby that I know of. I'm trying to keep up with your videos & posts to you among several other sites due to good/bad health/pain days , still recovering, still don't know if I need more back surgery. God Bless you & the family/friends

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Sorry to hear you’re still in pain. God Bless!

It may be just me, but I think the term anatomically incorrect might not be the choice I would have used. I mean, it's just a little sketchy if you know what I mean.

[@justforsomegoodfun]

Legend has it, after Barry got hit by the bus, he had them install a hollow leg with a diverter to it in his stomach he can activate to be able to eat three meals at a time that can easily be turned into six meals at a time if the portions are big. LOL Jokes aside, this looks awesome and I am going to have to go. The only problem is I can't eat three sandwiches at a time, so I will be left to decide and they all look amazing!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I just left there and had the muffuletta and the Brooklyn.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

And you heard right. I’ll go to any extreme in able to eat more. Lol!

[@TheLesporter]

Boar's head meats are the finest deli meats you can get all the others are just plain, meats. This the best eating shows on you tube.

[@mistergrendel32]

How does Mr. Goodall eat all that food: three sandwiches, two bowls of soup, Mac and cheese, and chips? How does that place make any money with only three tables? It all looked delicious though! 😜

Why are all the restaurants in Louisville all basic inside and quiet? Never any music, nothing..only listening to people crunching and smacking their lips. 🤷‍♂️

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Because most people don’t like loud music. I intentionally seek out those places because KZbin loves to slap copyright claims on me every chance they get. Shoney’s review is a good example.
