Boar and Castle Sauce
I’ve always loved Boar and Castle Sauce, which might just might be North Carolina’s best-kept secret. This all-purpose steak sauce and table sauce was born in the Boar and Castle Restaurant, a venerable old dining establishment that operated in Greensboro from 1929 to 1980. Anybody that lived in the area knew this place well. Housed in a castle-shaped building with gables, The Castle” (as it was fondly called by locals) was a popular gathering place for college kids and teens, as well as hungry families looking for hearty fare. The Boar and Castle was famous for its signature Castleburgers smothered in Boar and Castle Sauce, and friendly carhops providing parking lot service before drive-through windows were invented. Although the restaurant has long since closed its doors, folks in Greensboro and the surrounding area can still find Boar and Castle Sauce at local stores, but the tasty sauce has been virtually impossible to find outside of the Triad area of NC until now. Luckily, the internet has come to the rescue and this wonderful sauce is now available anywhere.One taste of this thick, rich steak sauce and you’ll be transported back to a bygone era. The mustard-tomato base is spiked with just a hint of peppery zip, a touch of tamarind tang, and the pungent essence of anchovies to create a complex, savory sauce that enhances steaks, hamburgers, roasts, meatloaf, hot dogs, onion rings and french fries. Boar and Castle Sauce also adds great flavor to gravies, soups, stews, poultry, seafood and vegetable dishes. This sauce has stood the test of time, and is so good you’ll want to keep a bottle by your stove as well as on your dining room table

The Boar and Castle

The Boar and Castle
The Boar and Castle was a drive-in restaurant in Greensboro,N.C.If you have ever seen the movie , American Graffiti, you have some concept of what the "Castle" was like. Good Food, cheap food,great car hops, and plenty of action for both girls and boys. I met my first wife there, but that will have to be another post.I am hoping that many people will blog or comment to this blog.I would love to have your stories and pictures of what your life was like at the castle. Don't be afraid to express yourself. Tell your story. Let others live and share in the memory of where we grew up, the enjoyment,the sad and the good times at the Boar and Castle.
