Lord yes, we love some gravy! One day I will convince her to have grits the proper way.. without sugar!!! LOL! I know, I know.. the only civil(ized) war that goes on around here is Savory grits VS dessert grits. I usually defer to Barney...

Huge fan of the grits! My yankee dad ( native new yawker) would poo poo the grit yet he would nosh on scrapple for chris'sake!
I prefer stone ground ( coarse, slow cooking) grits cooked with butter, chicken stock, heavy cream a smidge of roasted garlic and a heaping helping of grated cheese. Serve it up as a side dish for shrimp or a cajun spiced ribeye or for breakfast with grilled andouille and carmelized onions. Leftover grits can be turned into a torte of sorts ( or grit cake) by mixing a custard into it and adding chopped country ham ( or other fav salty meat!) and baking to "set". Great for slicing and grilling or serving as a "bottom" for canapes or makes a great treat with a salad for a lighter lunch. I can be as passionate about all things southern. The food is just one of the many things that endear me to this part of the country! Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?! |

I guess it depends on what you consider weird. I mean, to some, crawdads might be weird. *grin* Oh, and I say to hell with Paula Deen. If you want some good cooking and a taste of the south, this is where you need to go: http://www.mrswilkes.com They seat you around a big ol' dining room table with 8-10 of the bestest buddies you never met before and everyone passes around platters of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, mac and cheese and big ol biscuits, and good god, you better save room for dessert. *grin*

Speaking of the South and traditions... What holiday traditions are geographic? Do you trudge over the hill and thru the woods to cut your own tree? My parents grew up both very very rural (tobacco farm - no indoor plumbing and tar paper "shotgun house" in Florida). For Christmas, part of their presents were oranges and nuts. Both were considered highly special and reveered. To this day, they put oranges and nuts in the grandkids' and great grandkids' stockings. My father's birthday is December 23rd. Because it is so close to Christmas, he usually just gets socks, undershirts and briefs. Its his tradition to have a picture made with briefs on his head! LMAO... Tomorrow is his 74th birthday and it won't be complete until his drawers are on his head. I can't wait to see it. Christie |
