im not trying to be sarcastic or a douche or anything

but i wonder how hard/successful it would be to go buy some dough and cheese and garlic sauce stuff to make your own pokey-like sticks

1/13/2008 11:29:28 AM

aha gumby's is closed?

the things i miss not being at state or a tww dork.

^oh, and i agree. they sell the freakin breadsticks you can just unthaw/open up and stick in the oven. add granulated garlic (or garlic salt) and lots of cheese and there you go.

I imagine it would be pretty difficult to get the right texture, I mean yeah everybody knows whats in them but i doubt I could get the technique close enough.

kinda like I know the exact recipe my mom uses to make the family bbq sauce but I can't even get close to it no matter how I try

yea it would be hard to duplicate but maybe the result would be just as good, but different

I briefly worked at gumbys ten years ago

the dough is made from water, bread flour, canola/soybean oil, salt and yeast

the cheese is part-skim mozz

and they brush the dough with garlic "butter" (hydrogenated veg oil)

knock yourself out

whats the red pizza sauce made out of

other than just saying marinara

1/13/2008 11:55:19 AM

unthaw = freeze

if I remember correctly, it came from a can

1/13/2008 12:01:42 PM

no offense but i think that is actually less helpful than if u had just said marinara

I'm currently undertaking the task of attempting to replicate the pokey stix, the dough is made and I'm waiting for it to rise need to go pick up the mozzarella and make the garlic butter

Thanks for the input 392, plus I'm working off of one thing I found online

" Pokey Stix 2 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp butter, melted 1 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp ground oregeno 1/4 tsp onion powder mozzarella cheese parmesan cheese (fresh grated is best) pizza crust Combine all ingredients except for the cheeses and the crust. Prepare your pizza crust on a pan or a peel (the pan works best for these though). Brush liberally with the melted butter/oil. Top generously with cheeses (Gumby's is skimpy on the cheese, but they're better with more cheese). Bake. Okay, so it's not much of a recipe, but they are pretty good cheese breadsticks. "

let us know how it turns out

1/13/2008 12:21:23 PM

btw any clue what goes into the "pokey dust" or whatever, i'm pretty sure parmesian and garlic but anything else?

1/13/2008 12:22:39 PM

just try w/ the parmesan and garlic and see how it goes

1/13/2008 12:23:38 PM

I think my garlic butter mix was pretty good but I needed to use more chese and my dough never got the right consistency, texture was all wrong

1/13/2008 2:18:47 PM

I'm gonna save this recipe and give it a shot sometime this week... Let us know if there's anything we could do different to make it better..

Thanks!

there's a gumbys in wilmington. you could go, eat, and be back by 9:00

1/13/2008 3:21:40 PM

i think they arent owned by the same gumbys people anymore, but they did pay them something to keep the name

the food is different iirc

1/13/2008 3:26:17 PM

yeah every time i go to wilmington me and my friend inevitably end up ordering some pokey sticks
