Not at all, its a Pa Dutch thing.
I always thought it was PA Dutch but my girlfriend grew up in Lancaster and told me its actually a Berks County thing

Betty, what you do is make filling like you would stuff a turkey with. Then make a bowl of mashed potatos but make them a bit soupy. Then fold the filling into the potatos. Top with some pats of butter and pop into the oven till the top is a bit golden.

Serve with gravy

Its awesome! Once you have potato filling, plain mashed potatoes just don't cut it anymore. I grew up in Philly and never heard of it til I moved here

Betty, when you make your filling, dont forget to use poultry seasoning, that makes it taste really good

Yeah I forgot that. Don't you use egg get to make it fluffy or do you like yours dense

Sorry left out the word egg

Oh my goodness. I like NY style potato salad. I DO NOT like egg in my pot salad, or my macaroni salad. I guess this is because my mom always wanted to put EGG in everything.

Oh my thats funny. Its strange to find folks in another part of the country that know about things you like. I do know that Clover Farms gets requests for their Icey Tea form all over the country.
