Roast, rice and gravy, fresh Lima beans, black-eyed peas and homemade Angel food cake with whipped cream and strawberries.
What I would give for just one more meal at her house, with the family there…

Angel Food Cake. Somehow she made it not dry like every other one I've had since she passed away.

One of my grandmothers was a full blood Greek lady and she cooked some amazing Greek food. The other one's Thanksgiving dinner and pies were great.

Gramps was the real cook.

Meatball stew (dark roux) thick like a bowl of oatmeal over rice

Or

Standard beef roast stuffed and babysat for 4-5 hours to where it falls apart

Pinto beans cornbread (not that sweet crap) and fried potatoes along with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers from her garden.

On a side tangent the first fried chicken I ever ate was after my grandpa rung the chickens neck and my grandma plucked it.

I don't know if it is flour and milk pancakes with melted butter and sugar and water syrup or plain hamburgers on a plate (no cheese, bun, bread, condiments) with a boiled potato and a piece of single layer chocolate cake with hard chocolate icing on top. I miss my grandma. She and grandpa.didn't have much but offered what that had.

my great grandma would make the absolute best chicken and dumplings. She passed in '04 but I probably had it last in 2000 I can still taste it just old school southern cooking!

My mamaw fries chicken in crisco in black iron. And she makes biscuits from scratch. Her chicken & biscuits with her own fig preserves from her own tree is the finest meal you will ever have. She's 93 and she beat covid a year ago.

Oyster and egg stew with some crusty French bread. She would always make this for me when she knew I was coming home from college.

Maw Maw’s crawfish bisque was a very close second.
