pig ear sandwiches called ears. both pretty much served with the same garnishes of slaw, mustard, homemade hot sauce on a soft bun. >> now, as i understand it originally, this is one of those nobody wants these things. they're dirt cheap? >> that's exactly right. by dirt cheap, the ears were actually free. the local butcher was giving them to him because he was just throwing them away. >> everything we love about pig, the texture, fatty, lean, all that, oh, that's good. man! that is just hard to beat. >> isn't it good? that's a good sandwich. >> and of course some hot tamale, which at this point in history are about as mississippi as they are mexican. like the blues, they came out of mississippi in the early 20th century as mexican migrant workers came in to replace african-americans who are headed to work in the great factories and stockyards.
