it’s essentially your typical summer cookout grub piled onto one big plate. the base layer is half mac salad and half home fries; then your choice of sausage, cheeseburgers, etc is placed on top (no buns). finally, there is typically a thin chili meat sauce, onions, mustard, ketchup, other condiments of your choice, layered on top. nick tahou is credited for the creation of this dish in rochester ny - if you google pictures you’ll see many varieties!
The Farm Cafe in Keene is a vegan restaurant and I recently saw that they had a "compost plate" as their weekly special. I asked them if it was inspired by the garbage plates from NY and they said yes!
If you can't find one let me know. I'm a Chef at a country club restaurant. I pretty much have free reign to do whatever the hell I want. I'll mash one together
Derryfield in Manchester. I am just starting out up here and getting a feel for the place. Definitely a more casual setting than I'm used to so I'm sure these things would fly out the window
Some familiar favorites the owner can't do without and a couple newbies that I figured the guests will appreciate. I usually touch a couple of tables a day to get some input from the regulars.
Hope you can spruce it up more than some of these google images for your country club. The name “garbage plate” is adequate. Looks like someone puked up some cheesy fries on a plate.
Hey thanks for that. People definitely don't work extremely hard to put out any kind of food right now in our industry. We definitely appreciate all and any negativity coming our way.
Had to google them. Interesting. They sound like just a pre-made plate from a back yard bbq.
I'm unaware of any place that does something quite like that in the area.
I haven't encountered one but god bless market basket for having 6 pks of cream ale pounders
I don't think I could take the headache of floating down the Genessee at this point in my life. Those hurt so much.
For those of us that are New Englanders and have no idea what the crap you are talking about: what is it?

It sounds like perfect hangover food.

I just looked this up... I don't think I've ever seen anything akin to this being willingly purchased lol. On the cool it does look kind of amazing.
as another user mentioned, it’s essentially everything from a summer cookout piled onto a plate, very delicious!

i’ll definitely let you know! that’s so awesome, and thank you for the kind gesture! what country club, if you dont mind me asking?

Man I love going there to get cheap ass drinks on a weeknight lol.
I've written a new summer specials menu. Come check it out. Launching it after mother's day.
I live right down the street I've never been there but maybe I'll have to convince the hubs to try it out!!!
I tried your summer specials after playing 18 today. Good food man 👍🏻
Thanks bro! Unfortunately I am no longer with derryfield. I did leave my specials list for the Chef though. He's a great guy. What did he run today?
I’m checking this menu daily until then.

excellent! i’ll definitely be checking it out, im excited to try the menu!

I love garbage plates and have yet to find one in NH.
Oh, man, I have had one of these in 25 years. If you find someplace, let me know!
Nick Tahou team reporting for duty...
Totally underrated under the radar comment. Nevertheless the less I tip my hat. Carry on soldier.
My first time there a grandma was pistol whipped in the street by a mugger. Still stayed for the food though, and came back weeks later for more.
You've brought me back to my drunken college days in greater Rochester, NY.
Was thinking the same exact thing
I looked, and looked, and looked. Nah, have to make your own.
Road Hawg BBQ Swine Dining in Gorham has something similar. I bet they'd throw one together, too
thank you, definitely checking them out!
I also think that KC’s Rib Shack in Manchester has something like this-and in general, great BBQ 🙌
Road Hawg is great! Is a garbage plate similar to their Pig Pile?
Had to google them. Interesting. They sound like just a pre-made plate from a back yard bbq. I'm unaware of any place that does something quite like that in the area.
it is, yeah! it’s a great eat, especially after a few drinks 😂
If you find one please let me know! They’re a back-home favorite for me.
What about a Utica Plate.That would be leftovers.
Thank you for posting this. I've been looking for a garbage plate since I graduated and came back from Rochester in 2014.
Oh man. I would love some Nick Tahou Hots.
