Whole chicken. Dry brine with Tony's the night before. Smoke until the thigh reads 165. Cajun smoked chicken. $6-10.

You can also keep a pan under the chicken to catch drippings for gravy for rice.

Salad with a head of iceberg with bell peppers and dressing of choice. $2.50

Frozen cut green beans cooked to preference to finish off the meal. $2

Easily under $20 and healthy (high protein, low carb, non-processed) to boot. Just takes the effort in cooking.

If spices at home:

Smoked sausage, butter, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, and Weisenberger grits. An onion if I have enough left over.

Sauté sausage and onions in butter with some garlic powder and smoked paprika. Cook grits. Add cheddar cheese.
