Cajun Shrimp and Corn Soup
Recipe by:
Scott Delatte
A wonderful New Orleans-style soup that is a best seller at my family-owned restaurant. Serve with crackers. I like to season my shrimp with 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire, 1 tablespoon of Season All(R), and 2 teaspoons of hot sauce (optional).
MJ's Red Beans and Rice
Recipe by:
Mike Palmer
My all-time favorite recipe, which my Dad makes every year on New Years Day for the college Bowl games. I prefer the ham hocks, but you can substitute a ham bone for them. To slice the sausage easier, put it in the freezer for about 20 minutes first. The longer you cook it the creamier the beans get; I love to let it simmer all day, the smell is wonderful. Serve with hot rice.
Tex-Mex Spicy Cornbread
Recipe by:
Jud C.
Eat just like the cowboys on the old range. Bust out a cast-iron skillet and make yourself this spicy cornbread. Then listen for the howl of the wolf and the lowing of the cattle.
Bama Baked Beans
Boston is famous for their Baked Beans and though they are good they hardly stand up to my hug-worthy Bama Baked Beans. These beans will make a ridiculous side dish for your next BBQ or pool party but they are hearty (and meaty) enough to stand alone as an entree. They feature crispy bacon lardons, ground beef and strips of bacon as garnish. You know if bacon is used as a garnish it’s gotta be good.
Pulled Pork In Your Sleep
So easy, so little prep, and so, so delicious. You can literally make this in your sleep! (Well, almost literally.) The perfect recipe for an all-day sports-watching gathering, like March Madness.
Rob's Perfect Poppers
My dad always said the right tool makes the job go easier. In this case we will make use of an apple corer and a red brick to make the perfect popper. Please don't waste your money on one of those expensive popper holders!
Easy Cheesy Queso
No self respecting Man should be without a proper cheese dip. And...no I ain't talking about that "slime" that you buy at "Wally World". In less than 30 minutes you can be feasting on the real deal. Now where did I put those chips...
Goody's Collard Green Dip
Awesome dip! If you like collard greens, you will love this dip. Serve with toast, pita bread, or Tostitos(R) tortilla chips.
Barbecue Sandwiches

Michael Taylor
This is a summertime favorite. Traditionally a southern dish, this is a good recipe for picnics or pot luck lunches. This particular recipe is easy to make and takes little time to prepare.
Rob's Real Deal Hurtin' Habanero Salsa
Do yourself a flavor and throw out that store-bought stuff. This is the real deal, powered by lime juice, fresh cilantro, and habanero pepper. Respect the habanero--it can and will hurt you! I dump this stuff on nachos, smear it on pizza, fold it in my omlette, and put it in my chili. Legends are made when you add additional habanero peppers!
Crispy Fried Chicken Wings
These super crispy wings are super delicious! You can deep fry them or even cook 'em in the skillet--they just take 10 minutes!
RAF (Rob's Almost Famous) Legs over Buffalo
The chicken leg is often the redheaded step child of the bird. I say no more! This recipe elevates the leg to culinary heights normally reserved for the now legendary wing. It's gonna take some time in the brine so plan ahead...it's worth it! Gentlemen, start your grills...... it's time for legs over buffalo!
Rob's Juicilicious Chicken Breasts
I love chicken. But, when it comes to the boneless skinless breast, all I can think of is a tasteless piece of shoe leather! This is a no fail recipe that delivers juicy chicken breasts every time. I take mine topped with bacon and cheese when the wife's not around. Pardon the sloppy grills marks...I was hungry!
