Whats your favorite Southern recipe and why?

Question

My grandmother makes fried corn that i love as well as other items.. tell me about your fav southern and/or soul food recipes. THANKS!!

Answer 1

green beans and new potatoes cooked with a ham "butt" in the crock pot all day. It's so simple and inexpensive, but one of my favorite meals!

Answer 2

I lived in Texas for almost a year and went on this family reunion where everybody had to bring their dish.I just loved the sweet patatoe pie.It is just something that Is not made where I live now, we don't even grow sweet patatoes, its a rarety if you see them in the shops and very expensive. mmm its so yummy.Most of the people here don't even know what it it and how it tastes like.

Answer 3

For some reason, every dish in the south that looks or sounds appealing contains pork or, if far enough south, catfish or shellfish. I'm Jewish! Anything without pork catfish, or shellfish is terrific.

Answer 4

Collard greens. mmm so good, especially if when served you slice very thinly some onion and tomato and add some italian dressing, gives it an extra kick, its really good.

Answer 5

southern fried chicken is the best!

Answer 6

probably fried chicken because it's juicy and crunchy

Answer 7
