On this day in 1956, Elvis Presley graced the stage of the Ed Sullivan Show for the very first time. ![]()
![]()
Appearing on the Ed Sullivan Show was a high point of anyones career, but this, of course, was a milestone in it's own right for Elvis, as he had been previously banned from appearing on the show. Something, something..."gyrations"...![]()
![]()
But why did Ed reverse the ban? Well, Elvis had just appeared on "The Steve Allen Show", the Dorsey Brothers' "Stage Show", and "The Milton Berle Show", causing ratings to soar and Elvis' popularity to spike again. Sullivan quickly signed Elvis to an unprecedented $50,000 for three appearances on the show.![]()
![]()
It was a smart move - 60 million people tuned in (or 82.6% of TV viewers at the time), becoming the most watched TV Broadcast of the 1950's and giving the show it's highest ratings in over two years. ![]()
![]()
Elvis performed his hits "Don't Be Cruel", Little Richard's "Ready Teddy" and "Hound Dog". Then, he debuted "Love Me Tender", and the single became the first time a record achieved 1 million sales BEFORE it was released to the public. ![]()

â…“ cup dijon mustard or Passover mustard![]()
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar![]()
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes optional![]()
Instructions:![]()

Slice the entire salami diagonally. The incisions should not go all the way to the bottom as you want the salami to remain intact. Leave about ½ inch between slices. Repeat this process making a criss-cross design along the salami.![]()
Whisk together the marmalade or jelly, mustard, vinegar, and red pepper flakes. This will create the sauce.![]()
Pour the sauce over the top of the salami. Spoon the sauce back over the top several times. Open the criss-crossed incisions while pouring to insure that the sauce gets to the inside of the salami.![]()
Bake for 15 minutes uncovered. Spoon the sauce in the pan over the top of the salami. This should be easier than it was before as the salami has had a chance to open up while baking.![]()
Bake for another 15 minutes, spoon sauce over the top again.![]()
Pour the remainder of the sauce over the top and bake for a final 15 minutes.![]()
Slice and enjoy!
