That's what scones are to me, too...triangle-shaped muffin-type things. A friend of mine made some with jalapeno. From what I've seen, the kolaches they sell here in Lubbock are really similar to pigs-in-the-blanket. PITB have more of a biscuit type "blanket" and the kolaches have more of a homemade bread-type "blanket".
I always thought scones were all British or something. I bet some jalapeno jelly (or that rasberry-chipotle stuff) and cream cheese would be good on one.:thumbsup: BTW...it has been raining cats and dogs here lately! How bout all this rain!!!

You can't talk about food and Texas without mentioning barbeque. A friend of mine stopped at a little place off I-20, exit 591? He said they had pretty good food.

That's the way my wife makes pigs in a blanket, with 'breakfast' sausage links. I've never had them fried.
I guess that's a different type of scone than what I've seen. Sysco sells scones. The motels buy them. They are triangle shaped, and they come frozen, and then you bake them. They come in blueberry, and banana nut, and whatever else, I reckon. I guess, they are more or less, a muffin, just shaped like a triangle. I've had the blueberry and banana nut. Both are really good. When I was delivering, the girls at Homewood Suites used to give a couple. She also made "Meat Pies", the Hungarian version of Calzones. Yummy!! The "Cajuns" have a version of Calzone too that is excellent! The spicey variety are killer!!
