Re: southern style sides
So I made the ribs, cornbread (impostor version, no iron skillet), green beans cooked with ham hock, garlic cheese grits, and Kentucky Derby pie.
Everything was a big hit with Mrs.StevieG and the in-laws. Thanks to jakethebake, vulturesrow, 4_2_it, and everyone else that made suggestions. The mac and cheese will just have to wait for another time. |

[/ QUOTE ] StevieG, Glad I could help you score some brownie points with the missus and her family [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] The whole thread got me craving some good Southern cooking so I was pleasantly surprised to find that my wife was making fried chicken, baked beans, and green beans tonight. PS Please tell me you served sweet iced tea with dinner... |

Re: southern style sides
The sweetness, I mean. Me and mine frown on sugared tea. I'm not really sure what the majority Texas position is; probably depends on region.
