I like chicken fried steak too, but with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables.

A properly done shrimp po-boy and some coleslaw, but that might just be me getting hungry for lunch.

My family is from Texas and Oklahoma but I was born in Michigan. We found a bad ass BBQ joint nearby with real cornbread and they changed the god damn recipes to fit nothern tastes.
I like both kinds but I'll be damned if johnnycake can pass as cornbread.

I love Southern breakfasts.

The only problem is deciding which carb to choose from.

There's so many good options between grits, biscuits, potatoes, toast...

Gumbo

Virginia country ham, black eyed peas, spinach with onion and red pepper and a side of corn bread.

stewed beans and cornbread

>>9233206
>favorite Southern cuisine dish?
>dish

That's impossible to say.

BBQ is great. ALL of it. Between ribs, chicken, pork, or brisket, how can you choose just one? Then you've got the Cajun trifecta of gumbo, jambalaya, and etoufee to choose from as well? No fucking way. Hell, the breakfasts alone are hard enough to choose from with shit like country ham, biscuits and gravy, or shrimp and grits, there's just no way to pick only one dish.

That's a laugh. They weren't even part of the Confederacy. What you're doing is confusing the presence of rednecks with being part of the South. Rednecks come from all over the country, friend. Some of them are Southern, some Northern, a fuckload of them are Midwestern, hell there's even some on the West Coast.

I just recently tried this and damn was it good. Okra isn't common here, but hopefully I'll find some one day and fry them myself.

What if you put hot sauce

Okay?

Huh? Huhhh??

Breakfast: Eggs and Grits with sausage, ham or bacon, hot sauce and sawmill gravy

Dinner/Supper: Nashville Hot Chicken with white bread and dill pickles, coleslaw, stewed greens and iced tea

Bar Food/Snack: Fried pickle spears. green tomatoes or okra

Dessert: Lane Cake

I'm also partial to cornbread and shrimp/andouille gumbo.

>>9234550
>There are no crawfish around here
Yes, there are. They are in the creeks. You are right that they are not a common ingredient for frogmore stew / LCB though.

sketti n butter

White gravy isn't good, stop trying to convince me it is. Grits are amazing, stop trying to convince me they aren't.

I'm from South Carolina. I've been vegan since I started college, but as a child my mom made a lot of greasy, delicious southern cooking. My favorite meal that she would make was fried gizzards, grits with all the fixings, and fried okra.

I think if I tried to eat a plate like that now, the grease would put me in a coma. Luckily most of my family eats healthier now.

Nigger detected

>>9235150
I was dating a girl one time and she wanted me to have dinner with her and some of her friends. What I didn't realize is that her friends were making dinner and were super poor. They made a huge pot of spaghetti, drained the water out, and started adding ketchup and sugar. See, I didn't know this was actually a thing people did. Though it was gross as fuck, I ate every bit they put in front of me and thanked them for it. I was tempted to buy them some real groceries or something for next time but we broke up pretty soon after that for reasons unrelated to the sketti.

On the money. Grew up in Bethesda, MD which is very close to DC. My parents are in PR but both grew up near Hagerstown in the 60s and 70s. Very Southern and conservative mindsets, which made for some hilarious antics growing up. Watching my mom try to understand wtf gluten free was in the early 2000s and shit. Or my dads friends simultaneously realizing he voted for Bush twice at a dinner party.

Can't afford pasta sauce but can afford ketchup and sugar? What does them being poor have to do with anything. That girl was just literally retarded.

Euro who used to date a Southern AmeriNigress from the Lowcountry here.

Biscuits and tomato gravy, shrimp and gravy with grits (it's basically the same thing as something from back home, just with different type of shellfish since we use riverprawns instead of shrimp), biscuits and white "gravy," stove top mac and cheese (different recipe for stove top v oven baked; oven baked had eggs in it), cornbread for pork rinds in it, fried okra, pickled okra, shrimp and okra (basically LC simplified version of gumbo), perloo (shrimp and rice with or without okra) and dirty rice (chicken liver, gizzards and boneless thighs ground together and cooked with aromatics and rice). Also fried shrimp.
The family couldn't fry chicken to save their life, though, my ex included.

I lived in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois, and I can confirm Indiana definitely feels like the South. As does Ohio.

I mean technically I guess slavery wasn't legal but that was 150 years ago and things change in 150 years. There are confederate flags all over Indiana and everyone drives a pickup truck covered in racist bumper stickers. It's definitely more southern than northern.

>>9237068
I live in Wisconsin. Now. I lived in Indiana for 10 years.

I also lived in Kentucky for 2 years. People from Indiana work tractors and are kind of "redneck". That's pretty much it. As far as southern culture, cuisine, or anything else they are different. Maybe hospitality is the only common virtue.

>>9237068
So what is your context for "the South" if the only places you've ever lived are 3 northern Midwest states? How can you say something feels like the South when you don't even know what the South feels like?

Indiana and Ohio do not feel like the South.

>>9237110
Did I say those are the only places I've ever lived? Or did you just assume because you've lived in the same place all your life? You probably don't even have a passport.

Those are contrasting examples of states in the Midwest I've lived, and, traditionally, Indiana has been considered "Midwest".

The reason it's relevant is that southerners are always trying to argue over who is the most southern. Obviously if South Carolina isn't the "real south" according to someone from Mississippi, then Indiana might as well be Denmark as far as they're concerned.

But the opinions of Southerners are irrelevant, and as far as the rest of us are concerned, Indiana is basically the South.

>>9237131
Did you really just say that Southerners' opinions on whether or not they're actually Southerners or others are Southerners is irrelevent? Really? You do know there's a difference between rednecks and Southerners, right? Most Southerners are indeed rednecks, but most rednecks are not Southerners. For shit's sake, there're rednecks in Alberta.
Not even a Southerner (or American, for that matter), but what the shit.

>>9237068
>Indiana feels like the South
Literally no one considers Indiana the south. Maybe the Midwest will take you

>>9237131
That's a lot of text with no substance. The mason Dixon line is the bare minimum requirement to be Southern so you can fuck off

>>9237131
>But the opinions of Southerners are irrelevant, and as far as the rest of us are concerned, Indiana is basically the South.

Yeah, we get it, you hate southerns. But I think they know more about what is southern than "the rest of us"

>>9237110
>what is your context for "the South"

If you live in a state that fought in the great war of northern aggression for the confederate states of America, then you're in the south. Period.

>A non-seafood po'boy isn't a po'boy.

Roast beef is one of the OG po boys — hell, tourist traps like Mother's sell thousands of them a day, soaked through in "debris" au jus. Lots of high profile restaurants in New Orleans do the same. The original po boy was supposed to be a bunch of french fries on french bread, smothered in roast beef gravy (tho the story supporting this is probably apocryphal.)

A po boy is basically any sort of meat on a french roll, whether fried/grilled seafood, cold cuts, hamburger, fried chicken, or hot sausage (hot sausage is one of my go-to's, being delicious and cheap, but most tourists don't order them.) The huge Vietnamese community in the city sells banh mi as "Vietnamese po boys" and a couple spots like Killer Po-boys even do weird vegan versions. What matters is the bread it's served on. If fried seafood was the criteria then a fucking McFish sandwich would count as a poboy.

The fried oyster po boy is the form perfected tho.

>>9243045
Congrats on reading the Wikipedia article, but a *real* po boy is either shrimp or oysters. Anything else is an offshoot. You yourself admit that tourist traps use other topping to sell sandwiches to retards.
