Mary Jenkins Langston Sets the Story Straight 

on jelly donuts.

A KINGLY KITCHEN - Southern Living , Denise Gee Oct. 95

.
. . . since his death in 1977, has Elvis Presley's reputed love for jelly doughnuts been blown out of proportion? You bet your grilled peanut butter-and-banana sandwiches, says Mary Jenkins Langston, one of Elvis's cooks from 1963 to 1977.

Though more than 240 books have been written about her former employer (including her own, Elvis Memories Beyond Graceland Gates), she's out to set the record straight.

"I never saw him even once eat a jelly doughnut," Mary maintains. "But you know, he did have quite a sweet tooth--just like any country boy." In addition to his favorite cakes and pies, Elvis craved heaping helpings of homemade vegetable soup, crowder peas, collard greens, creamed potatoes, roast beef, ham; burger steaks, and ham steaks (all cut into bite-size pieces).

He also loved "big, country-style breakfasts-say, a plate of about four or five scrambled eggs, a half-pound of sausage or maybe bacon extra-crisp--but not burned, like some've said--and, let's see, about five or six buttermilk biscuits," Mary says. "I think that was about it."

Are there other juicy tidbits? "Well," Mary says, almost whispering, "Elvis didn't like seafood at all. He wouldn't let us cook it whenever he was in the house. And he didn't care for food with bones in it either, like fried chicken. He liked it boneless." . . .

RECIPE: Fried Squirrel 

FRIED SQUIRREL

the most important thing as old ones are too tought. When skinning the
squirrel, make extra sure to remove all the hairs.

* 2 young squirrels, skinned and cleaned
* Salt to taste
* 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
* 4 tablespoons butter
* 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

After carefully washing the squirrels, pat dry. With a mallet, gently pound
the meat until the bones are crushed and the flesh is tender. Season the
meat with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a skillet (preferably cast-
iron) over medium-low heat. Dredge the meat in flour, and add to the melted
butter.Brown and turn. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the
meat is golden brown and cooked through. (Pierce with a knife to check
doneness. The juices should run clear when cooked). The process should
take 25 to 30 minutes.

Yield: Enough for a small starving family

RECIPE: His Favorite Pound Cake 

ELVIS PRESLEY'S FAVORITE POUND CAKE

.
* 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened, plus additional for buttering pan
* 3 cups sifted cake flour (not self-rising; sift before measuring) plus additional for dusting
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
* 3 cups sugar
* 7 large eggs, at room temperature 30 minutes
* 2 teaspoons vanilla
* 1 cup heavy cream

Special equipment: a 10-inch tube pan (4 1/2 inches deep; not with a removable bottom) or a 10-inch bundt pan (3 1/4 inches deep; 3-qt capacity)

Put oven rack in middle position, but do not preheat oven.

Generously butter pan and dust with flour, knocking out excess flour.

Sift together sifted flour (3 cups) and salt into a bowl. Repeat sifting into another bowl (flour will have been sifted 3 times total).

Beat together butter (2 sticks) and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes in a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment or 6 to 8 minutes with a handheld mixer. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and add half of flour, then all of cream, then remaining flour, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down side of bowl, then beat at medium-high speed 5 minutes. Batter will become creamier and satiny.

Spoon batter into pan and rap pan against work surface once or twice to eliminate air bubbles. Place pan in (cold) oven and turn oven temperature to 350°F. Bake until golden and a wooden pick or skewer inserted in middle of cake comes out with a few crumbs adhering, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Cool cake in pan on a rack 30 minutes. Run a thin knife around inner and outer edges of cake, then invert rack over pan and invert cake onto rack to cool completely.

Cooks' note:
Cake keeps, covered well with plastic wrap or in an airtight container, at room temperature 5 days.

Makes 10 to 12 servings.

STORY: The Fool's Gold Loaf 

IN PURSUIT OF FOOL'S GOLD

. . . Elvis had met both men several years earlier during his period of extreme interest in law enforcement, which culminated in his surprise drop-in visit to President Nixon, who named Elvis a "special agent". Tonight, as Elvis sat on his Kon Tiki throne chair in front of the jungle room's babbling waterfall, the discussion centered on law enforcement in Colorado. Elvis however, was reminded of something else. Colorado was the home of the absolutely delicious sandwich, the best Elvis had ever eaten: the Fool's Gold

Elvis had sampled the sandwich only once, when after a concert he was invited to a restaurant called the Colorado Cold Mine Company in the Denver suburbs of Glendale. He ordered the house specialty, which was named Fool's Gold because of it's outrageous price -$49.95. The first bite alone was enough to make a lasting impression on Elvis.

Now, months later, Elvis was reminded of those sandwiches. Both of his guests from Colorado were very curious about this extravagant treat. The King's policy when enteraining in his rock and roll palace was to grant his guests' every desire.

. . . At the Colorado Gold Mine Company, the scene was frenzied. The call had come in from Memphis at midnight. The cooks had less than two hours to prepare the "takeout" order of their lifetime. The massive griddle was scrubbed clean in order to fry up the huge quantitites of bacon required. The loaves of bread were quickly hollowed out and then briefly browned. The other ingredients were always ready. Miraculously, the staff completed its creation in the nick of time. The restauranteur,
his wife, and a waiter speed of off for the Denver airport with twenty-two loaves. As requested, a case of Perrier and a case of champagne accompanied the sandwiches, along with a chest of cracked ice.

Elvis' plane touched down at 1:40 am at Stapleton Airport and taxied to a private hangar. The owner of the restaurant personally brought Elvis and his party the order on silver trays. For two hours in the Denver night, the feasting went on.

. . . An entire loaf of bread is warmed and then hollowed out. The sandwich is generously spread with peanut butter and an equally thick layer of jelly. Finally, lean bacon has to be cooked, at least a pound fried to crispness, to fill the reamining belly of the loaf. The massive loaf is then downed
while the bacon is still hot. The serving size? One loaf per person.

RECIPE: Fool's Gold Loaf 

THE FOOL'S GOLD LOAF

* 1 loaf Italian white bread
* 1 pound lean bacon
* 1 large jar Skippy smooth peanut butter
* 1 large jar Smuckeräs grape jelly

Preheat the oven to 350f. Spread the butter generously over all sides of the loaf. Place the bread on a baking sheet in the oven. Meanwhile, fry the bacon until it is crisp and drain it thoroughly on paper towels. Remove the loaf from the oven when it is evenly browned, after approximately 15 minutes. Slice the loaf lengthwise and hollow out the nterior, leaving as much bread along the wall as desired. While the bacon is still warm, fill the insides of the loaf with peanut butter and jelly to taste. Arrange the bacon slices inside the cavity, or, if desired, layer the bacon slices between the peanut butter and jelly. Close the loaf. Savor.

Yield: 1 serving (Elvis), 8 to 10 servings (others)

Another Report on the King's Eating Habits 

Reporting Back on TV Special

LARRY DONN ON ELVIS FOOD

.
. . . Mary Jenkins, who cooked for Elvis at Graceland for many years, said somebody told her she was a fast cook. She replied, "When you cook for Elvis Presley, you have to be fast!" She also said Elvis ate with his fingers a lot (but not pudding, I presume).

Dr. Nichopolous said his job was to help controll Elvis' weight, but that Elvis didn't like diets and he didn't like exercise. He also mentioned that for a week before his death, Elvis had been on a diet of nothing but Jello (a brand of gelatin pudding). Billy Stanley said Elvis liked country living and wanted Graceland to be like a plantation. He told of a pig they had around the estate for a while that suddenly disappeared. One day at breakfast, he asked Vernon what happened to the pig, "We're eating him", Vernon replied.

Someone told a story of how Elvis heard about a restaurant in Denver that made great peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, so he flew to Denver and had twnety-two of them delivered to the runway, then flew back to Memphis. Another said he once dieted on nothing but papaya juice, then discovered it had so many calories, he actually gained weight. A nurse at a hospital said he ate a lot of vegetables and she never saw him eat much "junk food".

Mary Jenkins said he liked banana pudding, and the recipe given was exactly as my mother always made it. He also liked hot dogs with sauerkraut, and barbecue pizza (regular pizza with barbecued pork and barbecue sauce on top), and had times when he ate the same thing at every meal for several days. . .
