re: Are there any common foods/dishes that you’ve never cooked?

I have never fried chicken because popeyes is too easy. I have never made real macaroni and cheese.

I've only fried chicken a couple of time because it makes a complete mess.

Once. ONCE. The kitchen was an absolute disaster and it's one of those things that I'm positive that I can't do better than fast food.

I can go to Popeye's, wait because they ain't got no spicy ready, pull forward at the drive through, and still make it back home with great fried chicken way faster than I can even get the prep done and get the first batch out of the pot. If I want to get home a little slower and still beat the second batch out of the pot, I can go to one of the smaller local places and get even better chicken.

I have never cooked grits on the stove.

ETA: I'll save you the time.

Chicken fried steak with white gravy.

I might be crazy but I prefer the cheap industrialized chicken fried steak patties to a real life honest to God breaded steak fried out. That being said, I have never made chicken fried steak from scratch but I have no desire too. I do, however, keep a rail of the Tyson frozen chicken fried steak patties to bake and make sandwiches with.

I love a good chicken fried steak but have never tried to to cook one because my wife makes a killer chicken fried steak. The gravy is heavy on the black pepper. God bless her but she can’t make anything else and absolutely wrecks my kitchen.

I've never cooked a brisket, and my and wife and I cook a lot. Just never got around to cooking one. I cook whole pigs, big jambalaya's, big gumbo's and crackings in competitions. I guess I have a reason to cook one now!
