Man, I left off pinto beans, but it’s one of mine  too! Do you put sausage or ground meat or anything else in your beans? 

That’s a good list! I love smoked ribs. They’re finicky. But I love to cook / eat them. 

[LumRaiderFan]

Red beans and rice, sausage, with a pan of cornbread.

Simple, but I love it.

For me its gotta be fried turkey and cornbread dressing. I've been doing it for 15 years, and I'm kinda famous for it. Many times friends, neighbors, and coworkers bring me a thawed turkey and I cook for them as well. I've even traveled with my setup and cooked for relatives that have no idea how good it can be. Last year, my friend bought one from a local restaurant just to compare. They said never again, of course I don't charge. 

I also make a "Triple pork attack" tenderloin. Stuffed with boudin dip and wrapped with bacon. Smoked on the grill with pecan. Some people like apple sauce, but I slice up some peaches, sprinkle with cinnamon brown sugar and grill them as well. It's like cobbler without the cob. Put on top of blue bell vanilla. Its heaven in yo mouth. Lol

Only sausage in mine. I have a friend that does ground meat and a ham hock.

Looking at these lists makes me think we should get together somewhere and have a setxsports cook off. Could be a lot of fun and I know we would eat good!!!

That's a challenge. My boss is the same way. I tell him try to eat something that never touches plastic. Harder than "far east" algebra unless you cook it on the spot.

In my mind, I know how to cook just about everything in the planet. But I’ve never had Anasazi beans. Where do you get them?

I like to think I cook all the above pretty dang well too. Of all of them, the brisket is the biggest challenge, but I love the process. Lots of time to drink a “couple” beers.
