Do you want something like red beans and rice or rice and gravy or some other type of food?

1st night Simple fare, as they will have been traveling and won't appreciate a damn thing but food in face. Go with a cassoulet(white beans with duck breasts and sausage).
2nd night Time to pull the gloves off. Yet keeping it simple none the less, and as the price is cheap. Crawfish etouffee.
3rd night Must break a sweat sometimes, so out to the grill you go(remember hydrate), assuming a table of four bigassed ribeyes, grilled asparagus and corn.
There is half the week, I'll be back tomorrow to finish it off.

Quite a few of the dishes mentioned above could be prepared before your guests arrive, which should help you out the day of...unless you're trying to retreat to the kitchen away from your in-laws.

Etouffee is simple, and with fresh boiled crawfish for fat, it delicious this time of the year. and even better when cooked a day ahead of time

Some Blue Cheese Cole Slaw will rock their Midwest world.

During summer I like to grill some marinated chicken thighs along with Italian Sausage and Roasted New Potatoes.
I reserve the sausage for pasta the next day.

Take out from Chili's, Red Lobster and Olive Garden for 3 nights.
The other nights:
-Grilled hot dogs, potato chips and budweiser
-Frozen Lasagna with garlic bread (use the leftover hot dog buns)
-Vegetable plate...all from cans.
Take them somewhere nice once. Like the restaurant at Bass Pro Shops

You have plumbed the Marrianas Trench depths of EVIL, but it sounds good to me as I laugh.

Gotta go one night with the Mahi Mahi with the infused pineapple glaze reduction...

Well its possible that iluvla is a terrible person and the poor father in law bases his opinions of LA and La. sports on that.
If not, the old bugger deserves it!

Pretty heavy meal for it being a 1000 degrees outside.

Decorate in fleur de lis, purple and gold and black and gold. Put in a tape of the Saints winning the Super Bowl. Wear a Mardi Gras costume and play Mardi Gras music in the background. Serve him porridge and serve the good stuff to the rest of them.
