What's your favorite home cooked meal??

[chef jimmyj]

A lot of pasta talk..
My tomatoes are getting close!
JJ, how much sauce is that gonna make? It looks like it makes a lot..
I really want to try your recipe.

 It makes a Half Gallon of sauce plus the meat. It is enough for 2 Pounds of pasta.

You will see I edited the post. I changed 3-28oz Tomatoes to 2-28oz cans. It was a typo I missed...JJ

For me, it's low country boil.  For all you who don't live in the south, it's a mix of crab in the shell, shrimp, potatoes, corn on the cob, and Andouille sausage, all boiled together in a big pot of water.

That is a favorite around here as well.

Alot of Missouri people do that as well  , because we head down your way for vacation  and need a fix until we get back down .

Low country boil has several variations.  It's also known as Beaufort Stew and Frogmore Stew.  In Louisiana, crawfish might be used instead of shrimp.  I don't peel the shrimp and cook them with heads on.  All that can be removed as part of the eating process.  And the crab can be the native Blue Crab or imported Snow Crab.  I use this recipe: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/44033/daves-low-country-boil/  I've used Andouille sausage as well as kielbasa.  It's all good.  Give it a try.  It's mostly a summertime meal when fresh sweet corn is available.

Its hard to beat a simple chicken and sausage gumbo. We gotta get you making your own andouille! OMG, its like Chicken and sausage on steroids its soooo good!

I have yet to perfect any specific dish that gets the "you're making that or I'm not coming over" response, though the wife loves my chili (surprisingly, since she's not into spicy foods; I add just a smidge of cinnamon to make it a hybrid Texas/Cincinnati mix)

For my own tastes, deathbed request would be my mom's homemade chicken and dumplins...eat til I'm sick it's so good

Classic shrimp 'n grits is something that, if found on a menu, will always get ordered...I can't resist it

I get a really good andouille from Albertsons. Its good and spicy. I mostly follow Emerill's recipe, I just don't measure anything except the oil and flour..

I do have a nice stuffer so it's impossible for me to do. PM me a recipe for it if ya don't mind. I like to keep my cooking as authentic as possible..

My favorite is a turkey dinner like a Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixins

 

[sopchoppy]

Breakfast: Wife's biscuits, Conecuh sausage, soppin' syrup, over easy eggs.

Dinner/Supper: Fried chicken, mashed taters w/ gravy, fried okra and/or fresh pink eyes.

Since I do most of the cooking around here (wife still working) anything somebody else makes is good. 

I really can't say I have anyone preference I just happen to like food. A lot of the things discussed here all sound great. JJ waiting for the PA gathering to try some of those spinners.

My mom could take just about anything and make you hungry for one of her meals. We never had much but she keep us feed might be beans 3 days in a row and her biscuits were to die for. One of the things she did I really like was as said we didn't have much and she would take tuna fish and make spaghetti sauce instead of hamburger but it was using what we had.

It's amazing how someone can cook the same meal you do and it taste so different. It usually taste better when they make it!
