I love broccoli with cheese and especially as a soup. I like liver also. But I learned a lesson one day when I put liver in a crock pot and went to work. When I came home the whole apartment stunk of liver. It took a concentrated effort to get rid of the smell!
Thankfully, I have already eaten breakfast. I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. He should try deep fried Rocky Mountain Oysters and Spinach. I’m pretty sure it would do better.
Mom would always overcook liver until it was tough, and if there was broccoli it was boiled to a mush. Yuk! When I got my own place a butcher told me the secret to making liver right. Start with calves liver. Remove any skin and veins before dredging in flour. Fry some bacon to desired doneness, then remove from pan, keeping the bacon grease. Add liver and brown the first side over medium heat. Flip the liver over, add onions and mushrooms, reduce the heat, and place cover on pan. Cook until onions are translucent and mushrooms are golden. Done! The liver is tender, and has just enough saltiness from the bacon. Serve with the bacon, onions and mushrooms. If you are having broccoli on the side, do not cook it. Instead, drizzle it with the bacon, drippings. If you like, sprinkle with some parmesan cheese. With that Phil would have a line around the block.
Reminds me Chef Nick Stellino pondering the artichoke; he had to wonder about the first person who saw an artichoke and thought, “I bet I could eat that.” (I’ve often wondered the same thing about the person or persons who invented Haggis – and sincere apologies to all good Scots everywhere who sincerely believe Haggis to be a foodstuff.)
One of my favorite breakfasts is biscuits, sausage gravy, scrambled eggs and hash browns with onions and green peppers. Too fattening to have very often, but I still cook it once or twice a year. I grew up in the south and cook southern, my wife is from Wisconsin and cannot stand any thing I cook.
ALERT! Do not laugh at Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell for refusing to accept that they lost the election. They prepared for this months ago.
Step One — prepare their followers by claiming fraud.
Step Two — file baseless lawsuits in as many jurisdictions as possible.
Step Three — appeal all negative judgements.
Step Four — continue until one case is heard before the Supreme Court of the United States. At this level, judgement will be 6 to 3 in favour of the GOP. They have already stacked the court.

The brocolli, yes. The liver sounds nasty, and I like liver.

It should prove popular. Never a line to be served. Of course, once it becomes popular there will be a line for service, and business will drop.

Fried chopped chicken livers and onions, on matzoh… My mouth is already salivating… See you all later, after I return from the butcher…

As we get older we slowly lose our sense of taste, so we can eat broccoli. If we live long enough to lose our mind, we can also eat liver.

Liver should always and only be fried, with bacon & onions.

We actually had chicken livers and broccoli last night. I said to my mother, “I smell offal”. If she knew the word, it would have been a better joke.
