Today’s Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway<\/a> made me think of a restaurant that used to exist there called the The Black Sheep. Richmond has a lot of great restaurants and fantastic food, but an unusual sandwich sounds perfect for today.  This sandwich is named after the CSS Virginia<\/a>, a Confederate warship.  It’s fitting because this sandwich in its original form is HUGE and eating it is kind of like a battle.  In my at-home version, I use the baguette, but I cut it into four sandwiches instead of one!  The sandwich consists of fried chicken livers and a homemade slaw.  Making this at home is the only way to get it since The Black Sheep has permanently closed, but it’s worth the effort to try it out!<\/p>\n

Some drink ideas to pair with this sandwich come from a fried chicken joint in Austin, Texas.  Lucy’s Fried Chicken<\/a> offers some cool cocktails that pair well with the richness of these fried livers.  The recipes<\/a> include Texas Whiskey Revival, Lucy Basilia and Watermelon Crawl to name a few.<\/p>\n
