Quiz: What do the North Caucasus, Germany, and South Dakota have in common? Yep: MEAT. Today we hear from our wonderful guest Marnette about how a fascinating turn of history led Germans settlers in Russia out to the territory that became South Dakota. And with them they brought the wonderful tradition of shashlik—but with a German accent. That’s right, “chislic,” the little known but GROWING tradition of cooked meat, prairie-style. Our guest is director and archivist for Heritage Hall Museum in Freeman, South Dakota. And she’s a lot of fun, we think you’ll agree.
