Since I mentioned biscuits and gravy in another thread, I thought I'd mention another favorite southern food of our family, Brunswick stew. There are many, many recipes, but my wife makes it with chopped pork, tomatoes, and corn. She uses a vinegar-based flavoring; we traditionally made it with a barbecue sauce named Randall Dennard's, from a little town Washington, Georgia (where my wife's mother is from).
It's one of my daughter's favorites -- one birthday, she was asked what she wanted and she asked for "left-over steak and Brunswick stew"!
It's a good side dish to a meal or can be the meal itself. I like to put it over a slice or two of bread and have the bread soak up some of the juice.
If there's enough demand, I'll get my wife to write her recipe down and I'll post it. Or, just google it and you'll find a million recipes. Or, post your own recipe.
I'm a fanatic for lima beans, so one of these days I'm gonna add lima beans to the recipe. My grandma (who was out of the hills of Arkansas) used to make me lima beans and ham hocks -- something to die for...
