Southern cooking

Chicken and Andouille Sausage Gumbo is not the perfect dish.  Sure, it has tons of deep, complex flavors and is very filling.  The one downside is that a true roux really jacks up the calorie count. 

This Authentic Texas Chili recipe has plenty of meat, it is thick and spicy. The smoked flavor gives the impression of a cookout. Texas Chili will stick to your bones and leave you wanting more.

In my continuous effort to bring you the finest recipes from around the world, I submit one from my friend Andy Garr.  Southern Stir Fry with Turnips and Greens is just what it sounds like. Good southern cooking.

A Southern Tartar Sauce Recipe? As a Southern raised and fed Georgian, I love Southern comfort food. Well, isn’t it all comfort food? Have you ever heard of Southern diet food? I don’t think so. Fried chicken, fresh sweet corn. Pan fried catfish with hushpuppies and tartar sauce. Dang, I’m making myself hungry.

“Folklore is that hush puppies even got their name because fishermen would toss them to the barking dogs so they’d hush up and not scare away the fish.
