As an ex-member of the Giant Eagle deli department, I can confirm: non-chipped ham ruins people’s week.
Currently work at the curbside at my giant eagle and every time someone puts in an order they make sure to let us all know that it must be chipped ham
LMAO
@@opppack5860 I'm a former Curbside Express driver. I've seen this in people's orders, too.
It really does lmfao.
I used to work at the deli at the Wexford Market District. People are always really specific on how they want their ham. Some people want it chipped enough to be sawdust where it takes about half an hour on the slicer to get a pound which is a real pain in the ass especially when the line is long. And then people would complain about getting the pre chipped Isaly's we had in the case even though it's popular enough it never sits in the case for more than an hour and is just as fresh as us chipping it to order.
I from Pittsburgh, but I go to college in upstate NY. I’m a senior now, and I think at least once every year I’ve watched this video when I got homesick. Hearing the Pittsburghese always gives me a little taste of home and makes me feel a lot better! Thank you Pittsburgh Dad!
Me too!
Next time tune in to wdve online ... all the old Paulsen n kren skits ...pants n nat ...
Dickens cider...😂😅good times
Chipped ham! Everywhere I've ever lived I've always asked for "Chipped Ham." Once a woman in North Carolina instantly said, "You must be from Western PA."
George Saylor Isleys chip chopped ham...
George Saylor I'm from NY so I'm gonna ask wtf is chipped ham?
They cut the ham so thin that it doesn't come out in slices, more like "Chipped" off pieces.
I'm from NY, too, I used to get Chipped beef in Pgh for my mother in law to be.....It looks like a pile of chopped up deli ham
George Saylor hh
You just brought a tear to my eye.....I forgot all about dippy eggs.....that's what my Dad always called them. Born in Pittsburgh 1915 and lived there his entire life to the ripe age of 93. Thanks Pittsburgh Dad.
Covering the text books with brown paper bags. Some serious nostalgia. You guys are the best...
I did the brown paper bags too as a kid. Using gift bags are pretty cool to use now.
We didn't have snow boots n the 60's as kids. We put on six pairs of socks, then Town Talk bread bags, then our rain boots. Still had ice cold wet socks after an hour of sled riding, so we'd peel them off and do the whole process again. Always got holes in the bags. Just thought that was what all children did.
Hopefully going back to brown paper. In philly they are phasing out plastic.
Yes
We did it on our books when i was in school. Im 51 now
"We ain't getting these, grandma will mistake em for her pills and end up with dinosaurs in her stomach, then you won't get a christmas present" LMFAO!!!
"This is why we need a 4th freezer." LMAO
I love how he grabs Giant Eagle brand everything.
The only name brand items a true Yinzer buys are alcohol and tobacco products!
@@benjaminperez7328 and Heinz ketchup
@@AndrewSchlegel Oh, Hellz yeah. Buying/Selling/Consuming "Hunt's" is prohibited by City Ordinance (I'm fairly SURE). and it's a worse penalty than being caught with a Pepsi in Atlanta (Allegedly..) 😜
I used to buy that Giant Eagle Bread but not anymore, it's lousy and goes bad with 3 days 🤣
"We're headin' dahn Jine Iggles." Gram, Pap and Uncle Rick. Yinz gotta love The Burgh... and Dad!
But ders so many jagoffs at the Big Birds, 'Nat! Rather go to the Shop N Rob, But holding on to the cart as it pulls yinz dahn 56th Street is a pain!
thought uncle rick was banned from the big bird
I’m new to Pittsburgh.
I can confirm this is beyond accurate
1:12 I have a chemistry degree (from Pitt, H2P) and Pittsburgh Dad literally perfectly defined what "organic," "organometallic," and "inorganic" actually mean lol
Deli lady will give you a slice a cheese 😂
That brings me back
Pittsburgh dad is so funny 😂
had me at the cookie card
@@zackhileman7661 same hear
No screamin' in the grocery store!... "HEY DEB.... DO WE NEED BUNS?" hahaa
I liked that one too.
"what's it look like? Sandcastle?" I'm crying my damn eyes out in nostalgia
Miss going there as a kid with cousins and extended family
Born in Pittsburgh, now living in Hungary. Desperately trying to find someone else in Hungary from Pittsburg to share these with. So funny. And prolific! Well done.
growing up in pittsburgh, i've never realized how many things people here (including me) are always saying that seem so weird to everyone else.
Heard chipped ham in the dely. They call baggy to shopping cards, if something needs done, de 'to be' is not needed. 8 years living in the Greater Pittsburgh Metropolitan Area. I love it. People are charming, they get all 4 seasons, Flowers blossom like in schedule. I held my first summer and since then never regret staying.
It's so nice in Pitt though, lived in 6 different places and I always come back
Dippy eggs
I always called a vacuum a sweeper. Didn’t know it had a real name until college 😂🤷🏼♀️
If youns only knew... lol , now go red off the table...
I have family and friends that live in the ‘Burgh. These never cease to make me smile! From you’s to yinz’s, to wise potato chips and iron city beer, from Giant Iggle to chipped chopped ham n’nat, I love the Burgh!
8 years later this is still gold!
I'm a transplant to Pittsburgh...from New York City. I've been here no 46 years. And Pittsburgh Dad never ceases to crack me up!! He is fabulous!!! Whenever I feel down. I google Pittsburgh Dad and pick the first clip that comes up ...as I watch, I lstart to augh and immediately feel better.
Dippy Eggs, now that is authentic Pittsburg speak!
Angus & Sophie Sheepdogs we still call em dippy eggs
that's how i was trained to make them at pamela's
Lol I get looks when I order dippy eggs
For all those wondering, this was filmed at the Shaler (Rt. 8) Giant Eagle on October 30th.
My sister was working the bakery that night and met him. This episode was great. I have found myself saying a lot of this. :)
That’s so cool!
Its October 30th today but In 2021
I live in Glenshaw and I'm there every week lmao
Wow I work there now. Didn’t even recognize it
I thought I recognized it!
You need to make a whole episode about pot holes in Pittsburgh
Dylan Yuk would be a three part series
@@deathcheater9303 theres not enough time the universe to talk about pothole in pittsburgh
Potholes are everywhere when you live in the NE.
My dad made the best dippy eggs. I miss him. Now HE was a true yinzer and im proud to be just like him. Old school black n gold making even Pittsburgh Dad sound educated.
Spot on. Brings back so many childhood memories of getting dragged to Giant Eagle every Friday morning - the cookie card and free slice of cheese almost made it worth it.
I would look forward to the free cheese. Good times.
My niece has to get cheese any time we go to the grocery store
oh man the cookie card
Living in NC now and this sure makes me home sick. Love you, Pittsburgh Dad!
hahaha "Pap's playin' his numbers." Classic!
Yes! I remember the cookie cards! And the blood pressure machine!!! Wow...such good childhood memories of shopping with mom. Thanks, Pittsburgh Dad. You're my hero
I never knew chipped ham was only a Pittsburgh thing. I told my friend from Tennessee, and she was like "what is chipped ham..?"
Yeah, I tried to order it when I moved to Denver... Crickets. LOL
fritha grimmsdottir I'm still trying to figure out how to get city chicken here in Salt Lake.
It's not. I've ordered chipped ham in Ohio. It's the same as chipped chopped ham.
I tried getting chipped ham in Charleston, SC. They looked at me like I was crazy.
We have it in Cleveland too, haha! (And Giant Eagle EVERYWHERE) The Pennsylvania Dutch bleed-over is real. My grandma says warsh. I ate so much chip chop ham as a kid I haven't touched the stuff since I was about 8. I just can't do it anymore.
I remember renting VHS tapes in GE when i was little
Shark bites, iggle video, chipped ham, little hugs, poking the ground beef, bagged cereal, chicken crackers... GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!
22neohenry iggle video! Ur going back! lol
This is an exact historical depiction of my childhood
Always have loved Pittsbughers,,,,,,,,, hard shell outside, squishy mushy sugary insides. Plus I Love the Steelers and Mr. Rodgers !!! First time wife and I went to Pittsburgh from WV, we came out of a tunnel and saw that magnificent skyline, both our jaws dropped!!!
Get yinz some Isaly's chipped ham, throw in pot and dump in a jar of Isaly barbecue sauce, cook that stuff up and put it on some Giant Eagle hamburger buns. A Pittsbugh stapple growing up.
ham barbiques
MMMMM. Puke on a bun
“keep going until you get the Steelers one”😂😂 me and my dad
412 stand up
+Steve All the way!!!! I'm going to school in rhode Island and they look at me funny when I ask for the area code. The Market District is nice right near my home :)
It sucks that they have 724 here too. It isn't welcome.
+Ben Weiss *sniffle*
my friend has a 724 number....Should I burn her alive?
Ha, I just got accepted to UMass Dahhtmouth back in June, so I'll be going there in September. I'm from west of Cleveland, Ohio.
Ha I do the milk from the back of the fridge thing.
Your not in Pittsburgh unless you got two fridges’ , one in the kitchen and one in the cellar 😂
And/or garage.
@@ianmackenzie686 The Pittsburgh Toilet!
It's next to figerator! Fuckin jagoff!
When you said that the sliced ham threw your whole week off I felt that on a personal level
I know you’re not going to want to hear this but as a Cleveland Browns fan I love this show. Honestly The show could be called Cleveland just as well. So many parallels between the two cities. I love the show keep up the great work
Buffalo too ! The Triangle of Pittsburgh-Buffalo-Cleveland. Have worked and lived in all 3. Great towns, great people. (mostly)
Cleveland culture and accents isn’t nearly the same as Pittsburgh lol.
I live in Harrisburg PA and I’m like 2-3 hours away from Pittsburgh and that city’s like a Second Home to me. So loving and accepting and fun as hell.
I moved to the south and I didn’t know how much I needed this.Go Steelers!
Me too ! I think half of Pittsburgh is down South these days. Charlotte & Jacksonville are full of expatriates from da Burgh.
Yes Pittsburgh is it's own Country ! lol
"We're not buying anymore food just because you think it looks good in a cartoon." I'm dead!
Being from the Midwest and not ever seeing a giant eagle supermarket, i thought this was one big joke involving the NFL with the giants and eagles.....the more you know!!!
I'm from Ohio and I've seen a few... granted Ohio is the east most Midwest
@@taylorbeckett9686 I know the easternmost Meijer and the westernmost Giant Eagle in Ohio (off the turnpike). 😀
2:35 “I don’t care if it feels like Play-Doh, you’re about to feel like you’re back in the car!” LOLLLL
Love the Klondike references, as we from OH and PA loved and miss Islay's!
"This is why we need a fourth freezer"
LMAO!!!
When my wife and I were going art school in Pittsburgh we rented The Prophecy at an Iggle Video and didn’t return it until we moved back home about two years later because we either never had the time or we couldn’t afford the bus fare. I’m naht even sure if we watched it. I miss Pittsburgh, didn’t appreciate it when I lived there.
Ok to update my previous post, at first I could not find the Pittsburgh Dad hot sauce at the Giant Eagle Donaldson Crossroads, I saw a manger and ask “Do you know Pittsburgh Dad”? , he responded yes and took me to the section. I wanted the hot sauce; it is located next to the “Colony Sauce” and Rachael Ray whatever” the Pittsburgh Dad hot sauce section is near sold out, the steak sauce not so much . I tried the hot sauce, its great, only problem no little plastic hole piece for shaking, so be careful and pour easy. Dad says put it on eggs, I used it on pan-fried potatoes. Taste great.
This is all spot on! I live in Central Europe but my mom is from Pittsburgh. Any time we go back there I hear all this from my grandpa and uncle!😂
I'd watch it again, just to see TP on the shelves.
Spot on about not having the Advantage Card. Will never again forget.
I live in Wisconsin now. Is it weird that these make me laugh...and then cry for home?
Loving the ending. A hole thing of cookies, chips, and my favorite a gallon of 2% milk. Love it.
I love Pittsburgh dad I've watched him for years! THESE VIDS REALLY ENTERTAIN ME!!
I keep coming back to watch this.. it's a classic. Plus, it shows up in my recommended.
Another great video yinz guys! Always amazing to relive the Burgh in Manhattan with Pittsburgh Dad Thanks for the nostalgia n'at!
As someone who grew up in Butler PA, although I'm a Broncos and Avs fan, man these are hilarious!!!!! This is giving me a lot of throwbacks. Especially the slice of cheese line, used to do that every time I went shopping as a kid.
I grew up in Butler as well back in the 70's and 80's
Route 8 from Allison Park to Butler must have the most public golf courses outside of a Resort area. And lots of good bars. Natili's in Butler was a great place....heard it's gone now however.
@@robertwolf3969 yeah its unfortunately not there anymore, but there's still good places like the Lyndora Hotel that are older
When I moved to Cincinnati I went to deli asked for chipped ham ! The lady was like ..we don't carry that brand ! I was like it's chipped ham not a brand .I'm still saying chipped ham it's been 35 yrs. My Dad sends my sister chipped ham and Isley's bbq. Awesome!
He's not wrong. The Market District up North Hills is the cat's pajamas.
I haven't been up to that one yet.. I used to deliver to the one in Seven Fields, but I haven't seen the second one they built up there.
Geno2733 We stopped in to pick up a few things and he's not lying about the amount of counters and stuff for cheese/meat. It's definitely worth a look if you happen to be in the area.
the people there are terrible. that store is infamous for its rude customers.
My dad would fart and send me back an isle to get something, then watch me in the mirrors as I gagged through his fart cloud.
Giant Eagle memories
Miss you Dad. 😲
Love this channel. Reminds me when I was growing up in Pittsburgh.The City Chicken reference is awesome. Ham BBQ with Italy's Chip Chop Ham is so good. My Dad talked like that. So funny.
Growing up in Pittsburgh, this brings back so much! Pittsburgh dad actually reminds me of my grandma 😂 she had the thickest accent like Pittsburgh dad's ❤️
the good old cookie card
Emily Royer I swear by that cookie card! and the red car carts! the only things keeping me sane while shopping with a 4 year old! lol!
Hey Pittsburgh Dad, Thanks SO MUCH for doing my requested video, I really appreciate it!!!! :)
Can relate to everything in this video, revisiting childhood
lol i loved this!!! I love how at the beginning you said "Big grocery shopping" i use the same phrase hahahaha :D Although i shop at aldi for the bulk of my grocery list to avoid overpriced GE! Great video!
Aww poor GE I don't think they can help it. I heard a while back they almost closed because of price competition. I'm glad they are still around : )
I work at a hospital in Florida and the patients love it when I can pick up their Pittsburgh accents. They don't believe they have an accent.
We don have an accent. Yinz the ones with da accents.
People pick mine out too, I can't figure it out! Was told it's mostly in the 'ou' words... I was on the phone at work and a guy was like, oh I used to have Steelers season tickets! 🤦♀️
This guy is so relatable!! I watch him when I’m having a bad day. Like reminiscing with an old friend! Love you PD❤
That last bit.... oh Man! hahaha perfect! Thanks and keep them rolling Please!
I was stocker at GIANT EAGLE while I was in high school in the 90’s. Love this!!!
I'm from Cambria County and I can not get over how much my dad is like this
Never gets old. I grew up in Pittsburgh in the 70s when the yinzer accent was still alive and well!
Lord, I never thought I'd miss 2014...
I miss Giant Eagle...I have to deal with Food Lion now.
Yeah, I got Pathmark. I miss Gint Iggle's bakery.
Not a fan of Food Lion.
I live in Pittsburgh. Giant eagle is great. I feel sorry for you
Omg me too
I live 10 minutes away from a giant eagle
"We could be in the lumberyard and there'd be a toy section" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
CLASSIC "Jin't Egal " talk ,, Like it !!
I moved to Florida from Pittsburgh area in 2000 .
Said the word ,, Yun'z .
As in ,, " What are yunz doin' Later ? " ..
They were like ,, What ?? .
Here's a man who understands the real meaning of "organic". :)
He committed the worst sin of grocery shopping: Shopping Hungry.
So many Giant Eagle memories. 😊 We have them here in NE Ohio, too. I missed them when I used to live out of state, and would make a point to visit one on each visit home. I remember sitting there once on one of those visits, and eating an entire loaf of their bakery bread. 😄 So good, and the Winn-Dixie near where we had moved just didn't compare.
Wish I had seen this before I went to Pittsburgh this last weekend -- I definitely need to get some Pittsburgh Dad steak sauce! Will make an excellent Christmas stocking stuffer!
This is one of my favorites love it
Excellent and right on!
GREAT SHOW- THIS GUY CRACKS ME UP,AND HE REALLY DOES SOUND LIKE US PITTSBURGHERS!!!
I Love This Guy, I Feel Like a kid again listening to My Family, My Parents had a Slight accent BUT My Grandparents And ALL Their Friends Sounded Exactly Like This Guy !!!! ;)
Monroeville Giant Eagle FTW!
HILARIOUS!
No one could do Pittsburgh like you...
Oh my god, this perfectly captures every payday when we were kids! Iggle Video, cookie cards, brown bag book covers, and basement chest freezers full of old popsicles and discounted ground beef.
"It sure as heck ain't metallic." I just about lost it there!
loved Shark Bites haha! I always wanted to get that blow in the dark basking shark that you could find in select boxes
Easily my favorite pittsburghism is adding an unnecessary 's to the name of a store/restaurant. Giant eagle's, Vocelli's, etc. Lived here for not even 2 years and I've already started doing it.
Love this guy ! Terrible Towel scene was great !
He had me at the milk moment.
That was hilarious, as usual of course. However, I think the Giant Eagle they selected was a bit too 'fancy'. You want a real Giant Eagle experience, try visiting the Greenfield Giant Eagle. I went back home for a visit last July & walked into that store, it looks like it hasn't been touched in the 20 years that I have been away.
You guys always put a smile on my face! Can't wait to watch another!!
This is why mom always wants to go shopping at midnight....ALONE! lol..been there/done that!!
Absolutely perfect!!!
I find this hilarious!! My husband is from the "burg". We lived in Butler PA for few years and people are so like this!!! We live in NC now and I miss the chipped deli meat.
My family is from west mifflin, parents went to Baldwin high, and grandad worked for giant eagle. I was born and raised in Florida. Thanks for making my day with your videos!!! Gotta go redd up ;)
And Ham bbq😂😂😂 always would ask nana to make that for me first night in Pittsburgh.
cool. im from munhall moved to west mifflin years ago
same
I’m dead. Even though I’m from Cleveland this works so well. Giant Eagle is great
This literally describes my life!😂 And the funny part is that we actually go to the Market District Giant Eagle he was talking about😂😂
The whistling with words that end in S. Oh my god. It’s like I’m listening to my dad when we went shopping as a kid. And yes I always got a slice of cheese
As a current employee at Giant eagle... all of this is what I think about when someone's kids are runnin around.
