| Ribs contain a substantial amount of connective tissue. Therefore many cooks boil the ribs to get them tender. The length of time needed to tenderize will vary. Editor note: When I cook my ribs I think the secret to great ribs is to cook them at low temps for long periods of time. You could use this recipe and bake for 2 to 3 hours. Not yet rated |
| Fun facts from www.thefresh1.com - In 16th century Spain, the eggplant was believed to be an aphrodisiac. Europeans believed eggplants caused insanity, and called it the Mad Apple. Eggplants are best known for their purple color, but they are available in a wide variety of lavender shades-even striped! |

bar-b-que, brisket or grilled meat. Also a great stuffing for bellpeppers. |

| You won't find this one in cookbooks, it's an orginal from Ms Bert!! |
| This is an easy no bake main dish - a classic made simple. |
| This homemade Andouille sausage is the real thing, and it IS spicy! It's great for seasoning beans and gumbo; or use it in anything else that calls for smoked sausage. I use pecan or hickory wood for the smoke, but any fruit wood would do. |
| I cook this with rabbit, since I have an abundance of them, but chicken, duck, quail, or venison will work too, whatever you have on hand. If you can't find andouille sausage,use plain smoked link sausage, or try to find a hot link sausage. That’s the good thing about gumbo – you can’t hardly mess one up after you have a good roux made. Mais dat's the truth, yeah mon ami!

| I ate these this weekend at Holly Beach and it reminded me of being at the Vermilion Parish baseball parks playing softball and watching my brother pitch.
Mom told me the secret to their burgers is the extra butter that's added and the Evangeline Maid buns. These burgers, like all other burgers, go great with beer! |

| According to CajunCulture.com, not only is the origin of the term "coonass" disputed but also its acceptable usage. Some Cajuns take pride in the word and display license plates saying "Registered Coonass" while others see it as an ethnic slur. Either way, this is some good filet mignon. |
