Did/Does your grandfather cook? And if so what was your favorite meal.

Fortunate to still have mine. He called me yesterday while I was heading home from work and said he had a pot of pinto beans on the stove , fried potatoes , and cornbread in the cast iron if I wanted to stop by the house. Told me I'd probably have to heat up a pork chop though if I wanted some meat 
Man times are good.

When he was alive, he cooked. He was an awesome cook. Like most Cajun men, he made a mean rice and gravy out of any protein.

Every time we went to visit, I thought he was grilling, but he was just burning trash in the backyard.*

Made the best cornbread I’ve ever eaten. When I would spend the night with him, we would eat it in a bowl with milk poured over it.

Sounds better than a sandwich of canned sardines and Vienna sausages. I’m also not joking.

One grilled a lot and made some amazing fried fish, I never saw the other one boil a pot of water. My maw maw was an amazing cook though.
They've all been gone. All would be 102+ at this point.

One grandfather BBQ every Monday for the family, his day off.
The other cooked 6 days a week for his wife/family. Roast and mashed potatoes was his best.

Neither of my grandfathers cooked, that was considered woman’s work.
No matter what my grandma made for supper one of my grandpas always had a big bowl of Kelloggs sugar Frosted Flakes. He ate that until he was in his 90s when his blood sugar situation made him have to stop.

Mom taught me how to make crawfish bisque with stuffed heads in 1965. I still got the recipe in my head.
start with 4 sacks of crawfish and make sure all of the fat in the heads is reserved for gravy .

Are you a cheesehead? Because you could be an honorary Cajun or redneck.

My grandfather on my dad’s side was a German Baker up in Pennsylvania. I only met him a few times before he passed.

My grandfather woke up one morning and decided he wanted to be a cook on a barge. Just up and boarded a barge one day then cooked meals going up and down the Ouachita river for a couple years.
Loved that man

On holidays he'd drop his old wooden boat in the bay, throw the cast net for an hour or so and catch enough mullet to feed about 40, Fried mullet and it was the best.
