BR, I'll come visit you, but you can't make me eat chicken on the bone.:lol:

p.s. see my post about raw meat in the "Do you have?" phobia thread.

I'll take the beans & taters. Hold the chicken.

Girl, that really surprises me!

Do you eat fried boloney and biscuits for breakfast like my Granny in Tyler cooked? You probably would have to call 911 if you saw my Granny cooking lunch. She'd go outside, grab a chicken, break its neck, de-feather it, and fry it up. She'd make cornbread, go to the garden and get fresh tomatoes and collard greens. Yummy lunch (actually we Southerners call that dinner).

We also went for "dinner" at Grandma's and Grandpa's house in Atlanta as often as we could (Daddy went every day because it was close to his businesses). Fried chicken or chicken and dumplings along with a slew of fresh vegetables and cornbread. Great memories.

Don't think I was ever a fried baloney fan either. I lived with my grandmother and grandfather though and she made biscuits and gravy EVERY day for breakfast and sometimes again for supper. I have vivid memories of the whole neck wringing thing and the awful smell of the de-feathering process. Lord have mercy, it's a wonder I ever ate it at all!!! Come to think of it, I wouldn't eat any kind of meat if I could get away with it. Loved the cornbread, veggies and taters (fried). Not so much on the collard greens. I did love the dumplings though...I think I probably just fished them out and left the chicken even then.

I know. B&G is probably about one of my most favorite things ever. Slobbering here too.
 
My Daddy was the breakfast chef. He and I would get up early to watch the sunrise together. Then he made breakfast while I got dressed for school and Mom got my younger brother and sister up.

One the my favorite things that he made was biscuits, red-eye gravy, and fried eggs. Yummy!

So I hear ya on the B&G.

do you make B&G?
My Dad does the BEST. I tried to do it but never quite got the hang of it. So, I order them whenever i go out to breakfast!

Yes, but not often. Mr. DD doesn't like it much--too much bread he says--I know, you can never have too much bread. Anyway, lately I've made my friend Ann's sweet cream biscuits with REAL gravy made from sausage or bacon drippings. Oh dear...I may have to have this on the weekend.
