He is a bit rough on the paint job, and I don't think he is house broke!

You know I knocked for almost an hour.  Why didn't you answer the door, Redneck?   [smiley=huh.gif]

Sheesh!  Don't invite me over if you're not going to let me in.

BTW, while I may be rough on the paint, I AM housebroken.  The wife completed my training just last week.   ;;D

Damn, Steve.  Now I'm getting hungry.  I haven't had any good cajun food (that I didn't cook) in many, many years.  Since Christmas time 1992 I think.  I'm way overdue.

Yup, Gator is some good eatin'.  Armadillo is pretty good, too.  There's a lot of things in this world that taste good if you can just get over what it is.

It appears Justin is holding out on us or at least this website is.

Here is my absolute favorite sweet potato pie recipe from Justin Wilson:

From Justin Wilson’s Homegrown Cookin

Ingredients:
1 1/2 C. mashed boiled sweet potatoes
1/2 C. honey
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
3 large eggs
1/2 C. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 C. pecan pieces or whole pecans  (optional)  
1 - 9 inch deep dish unbaked pie shell

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Mix sweet potatoes, honey, cinnamon, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then gradually beat in sugar and vanilla. Pour the eggs into the potato mixture and mix well. Add pecans, if desired, and pour into pie shell.

Bake 1 hour or until a knife inserted into center comes out clean.

Time to go in the kitchen and do some cookin, I see.

Sounds yummy.  I used to love baked 'coon and sweet taters, too.  Chicken fried squirrel, turtle soup, crawdads...*sigh*  If I had the money, I'd hop the next thing smoking back to beautiful Acadiana.  At least for a visit.

Getting a little homesick.

Alligator Sauce Piquant.  It's good!

Piquant to a Cajun means "it's hot and hurts, like a sticker in your tongue."

Thinking of you Edna.  Maybe see you at the Sauce Piquant Festival in Raceland La.

In Georgia armadillos are called possum-on-the-half-shell.

Two things the tail is good for..boots and belts. And maybe a really ugly jacket if you're a pimp.

Gator says:

There is a reason God made armadillos so ugly…………so you wouldn’t put the damned thing in your mouth!

Aren’t possums a kind of rodent, like a rat?

Thanks but no thanks. I’ll stick to real food, like baloney sandwiches, or peanut butter or cheese-in-a-can.

Real Food , hmmmmm

Name:  Gar Balls  
Description:  
Ingredients:  Deboned gar meat free of gelatinous tissue.
boiled potatoes. ( pound for pound of gar meat )
green onion tops, finely chopped. 1/2 cup/
1lb. corn flour, not corn meal or white flour
Crawfish boil. Premixed type such as Zatarans.
Add no other seasoning as the crawfish boil will supply the seasoning.
Use the real spicy suggestions in the instructions.  
Directions:  wrap gar meat in cheese cloth and boil exactly as you would crabs or crawfish. This renders the gar meat snow white and taste like lump white crab meat. Combine the gar meat,shallots, and potatoes. Mash this mixture until you are able to form patties. Dip firm patties in egg/milk mixture then dredge in corn flour. Deep fry at 350 for approx. 8-10 minutes. Serve with cold beer !  
Oven Temp:  


Yeeee Hawwwwwwww [smiley=laugh.gif]

Y'all just don't know what you are missing.  I have tried the local fare everywhere I have been and there are few things I would not try again.  From dog in Korea to seal in Greenland and then some.  You can't say you don't like it if you never tried it.
