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.

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

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.

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