challenged the traditional notion
of an American hamburger.
"For a typical hamburger, you
put cold condiments-lettuce, tomato, pickle, mustard, ketchup-
on a hot bun and a hot piece of
meat," Pal describes. "That's several
different processes, and you're putting cold on hot. Instead, we created an all-in-one condiment, mixing
mustard, ketchup, pickle relish, and
about three spices, and started heating it. That way, it's one process,
and you're putting hot on hot."
That was the birth of what was later
called the Sauceburger.
Pal's drive-through restaurants
feature fiberglass hamburgers and
hot dogs as part of the architecture,
made by a boat manufacturer in
nearby Elizabethton.
On Walnut Street, not far from
East Tennessee State University, is

the innovative One Acre Café. Its
purpose is to help address the escalating issues of hunger and food
insecurity in the community. The
café uses the model provided by the
One World Everybody Eats Foundation. There are suggested donations
for those who can pay or who wish
to pay it forward, and volunteer
opportunities are available in exchange for a meal for those who
cannot pay. Volunteers set or clear
tables, wash dishes, help with watering the herb garden, and help out
with general cleaning. As the café's
website reads, "We know times are
tough. If you have trouble paying
the suggested donation, we encourage you to volunteer and save your
money for other necessities."
These two Southern Appalachian cities represent, for us, a
healthy blend: respect for the old
traditions and a welcoming attitude for the new.
Fred and Jill Sauceman study and
celebrate the foodways of Appalachia
and the South from their home base
in Johnson City, Tennessee, about a
mile away from a Pal's Sudden Service location.
