Just take boneless chicken breasts, dice them up into chunks, and let the meat sit and marinate in Italian dressing (or dressing of your choice, you could marinate them in something else) for at least three days. Then put the chunks on skewers and grill them. Eat on a bun. Speedies are a delicious sandwich, let me tell you...

EDIT: Alright I figured out why I could never find "speedies" on the internet, they're spelled completely differently than I thought:

Spiedie! And apparently they are indeed a local Binghamton specialty. You can use other types of meat, I remember having venison spiedies a few times.
Holy shit I went to Binghamton University and I loved spiedies!! We even had spiedie-fest where it was an entire street festival of local grown foods, entertainment and of course, spiedies.
