The best dish you've ever cooked

Just reverse seared a 20 oz. Prime ribeye. I've done some really good briskets and pork butts low and slow all day, but this steak was the best thing I have ever cooked, and I'm not sure it's really close. Everything just clicked.
Brings up a good discussion point though. What is the single best thing you have ever cooked?

It hard to beat this right out of the pot.

Smoked a prime whole packer brisket for a party. The prime was a beautiful piece of meat, and it turned out tender and perfect.
Guests went nuts over it, saying it was the best thing they ever ate and questioning whether I really cooked it. It was a standout among the many briskets I've smoked.

I was asked to provide a dish for 32 people for a Christmas party. Of course, my first thought was gumbo or oyster artichoke soup some type of soup is usually the easiest way to go.
Instead, I borrowed 3 dozen coquille bowls from a cousin who does catering. I made a stuffed crab like filling, but a little spicier. I pushed the filling into the bowls as if it were a pie crust, Then I browned them in the oven until a little crusty.
Next I made a thick oyster and shrimp stew. At service I took the coquille bowls with the crab crust out of a warmer oven, ladled in the stew, garnished and served.
It was very rich, so the portion didn't have to be very big. I got more positive compliments on that dish than almost anything else I have created. It was a lot easier to make than it sounds like and service was very easy.

Best thing I’ve probably ever made were these boudin eggrolls. I made the boudin from scratch.
Other notables (all from scratch)
Smoked tomato bisque
New Orleans style BBQ shrimp & grits
Mexican spicy dark chocolate ice cream with homemade whipped cream & caramel sauce

That is an awesome idea. Almost like a New Orleans pot pie.

My personal favorite is crawfish boil bisque. Great for leftovers after a boil. Make a stock with the heads, blonde roux, throw in the corn, potatoes, and tails. I always try to keep a batch in the freezer to get that crawfish boil fix when they’re out of season.

I used to make a pretty solid shrimp and grits. Been a while though.

Probably Prime Rib, roasted it till rare in the oven let it rest then seasoned and seared it on the blackstone.

My red beans are probably my best dish... my wife likes this shrimp pasta dishes I do, either scampi type with or without a heavy cream and cheese sauce or pesto. I used to cook chicken wings on charcoal grill at tailgate Krewe that people said were best they ever had. Fried turkeys and fried ribs as well.... those are probably my best... still lots of learning to do

I made a big jambalaya for a St Patty's Day party several years back. Fed about 40 people and they still tell me how good it was.

I made one that was documented here for Easter. Saved about 100 heads and 2 lbs of tails in vacuum sealed packs. Made that batch last week. Twas glorious.

My Eggplant Parmesan is good but my muffaletta is manna from heaven.
