GREAT ALL AMERICAN DINER RUN Our thought this month was to stick on the backroads of New York’s Sullivan County and that being the case we’d like to highlight a few different eateries. The great thing about this is that you get so much more…
ANNIE’S ROUGH CUT
90 FORMAN ROAD (OFF ROUTE 17B), COCHECTON, NEW YORK 845-932-5100 • WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/HOMEOFTHEROASTBEEF Annie’s Rough Cut first came on our radar from Brian’s mom. She lived up in the area and Annie’s was a once a week stop for her and her posse of wayward senior ladies; so it seemed proper that Rough Cut starts off this month’s GAADR. You’ll find Annie’s Rough Cut right off Route 17, on Forman Road. Before we get to what Annie’s Rough Cut is famous for, let us hit on a few of the other offerings to be found here. Paninis, served with chips and pickle, French Dip with roast beef and au jus, and the Lumberjack grilled chicken, bacon and cheddar. We heard raves on the burgers as well and Annie’s serves up all the usual suspects as well as a superb bacon blue and a black bean. They are also known for the wings - hot, mild, garlic parm, sweet teriyaki, sweet red chili, kickin’ bourbon, mango habanero and dry rub. So, you will have choices to make here. But what we have heard again and again is about their Signature Sandwiches. These are big sandwiches and you have an option of five. Fresh steamed pastrami, a pastrami Reuben, avocado BLT, their delicious roast turkey with Swiss, bacon, bean sprouts and cranberry mayo. But – we have saved the best for last – at least according to Betty – Annie’s Rough Cut Roast Beef is the bomb, the answer … the best. So, if you’re hungry – really hungry – head along to the western side of Sullivan County and enjoy a sandwich as legendary as the music festival that put this region on the map.
