my favorite supper last night

[Lloyd Smale]

I fry some sliced spuds with onion and a bit of garlic salt and pepper till nice and brown. then chicken fry a venison cube steak that went through my cuber. Lay the steak on the potatoes and smother the whole thing with my homemade sausage gravy. Meal fit for a king.

everything was fine until you put garlic salt on it

[NC_JEFF]

Sounds like a fine meal indeed.

Might not always agree on some things Lloyd, but you got me here! Sounds great.

Pnezey's garlic salt is very very good. Doesn't have that weird bitter taste cheap garlic salt has!

[tdoor4570]

Garlic is garlic when you can't eat it no matter whose it is it is bad

I love Garlic. Roasted is great. My favorite is the big heads that are cut in half and thrown in the pot with the crawfish and all the other seasonings. When the basket is dumped on the table, I will hunt out the garlic and eat over half a cup of pure garlic.
Lloyd Smale, That dish sure does sound good.

I meant garlic powder. Im not a fan of garlic salt either. I really prefer fresh garlic but garlic powder is just easier to use. I love garlic. Its the next most used spice after salt and pepper that is used in this house. Like farmer Jim I can fry some garlic cloves in butter and put it on noodles and eat just that. My wife isn't to crazy about strong garlic taste so I have to use moderation for her but if its just for me pile on the garlic. Simple meal that I just love but only have once or twice a year because my heart probably wouldn't take a steady diet of it is to fry a bunch of garlic in real butter and after the garlic is brown throw in some shrimp and cook till there white and poor it all on pasta. Nothing else needed.

Lloyd Smale,

Last night my "across the sidewalk" neighbor & her better half made a "typical Mississippi country supper" of baked chicken, boiled buttered squash with onions, pinto beans & homemade cornbread & brought me a BIG plate:-D. ===> To this 'ole country boy, it doesn't get much better than that.

Sounds very good. I like my venison broiled and barely cooked....mmmmmm.

[MaryB]

I smash up 4 big cloves of garlic with a little salt, mix in butter, and use that for 4 slices of garlic toast. I am a garlic fiend and even eat it raw...

[Lloyd Smale]

Allways tell everyone (even my ma) that the best meal I ever ate in my life was at my service buddys mothers house in North Carolina. She made fried chicken, black eyed peas and hush puppys washed down by real sweet tea. Wed go to his parents house about every two weeks and I made her promise to make it every time I came. I don't know what she did to her chicken. Maybe part of it was that she used chickens she raised herself but if she opened a resteraunt today kfc would be out of business in a month. She was hands down the best cook ive ever met. Everything she made or baked was fantastic. told her if I was her husband id weight 300 lbs.

Lloyd, there's just something special about that chicken made by a seasoned lady in the south. I've never had chicken in the UP that was even close. Similar experience but it was at a church in Florida and in Virginia, by some of the ladies in our Bible Study group. They were thrilled that a few young sailors wanted to be there. We escaped the navy chow that was probably made in concrete mixers to eat like kings!

[Lloyd Smale]

yes sir. It would have been one benefit to the south winning the war. At least if cornel sanders was killed in the last battle.

[Thundarstick]

Fit for a king, indeed! I bet kings didn't eat that good! :p

For garlic, I like to cut the top of a whole bulb to expose the tops of all the cloves, drown them in olive oil, and bake them till there nice and brown. Then you break them apart and squeeze the roast garlic paste out of the cloves onto, onto any thing you like!
