| The author writes - This is a recipe that I have modified from baked chicken to turkey. It is very moist, and very tasty. It is self- basting as you will see from the recipe instructions. There will be a transfer of smoked flavor from the bacon into the turkey. It has been a hit for holiday meals. Translation: the turkey is gone. This recipe is gauged for a 12 – 16 pound turkey

| The author/chef writes - "I have many fond memories of eating this dish growing up. There are as many variations as there are cooks in Acadiana, all of them wonderful.
This is a recipe that I think everyone in the Acadian culture has had, and does not share with outsiders. It’s time. I have prepared this for friends in Houston and they loved it."

| Janice writes - "I wasn't able to find the recipe but I do remember exactly how it was prepared. My mother directed me on how to prepare it. Grillards is really marinate (marinating pieces of meat)." The author also writes - "I like lots of onions and bell peppers so I usually add more after I start cooking the meat and mixture. Adding more onions and peppers also increases the amount of gravy." Also you can let the meat marinate up to a week. |

After cooking the brisket to a high internal temperature, a resting period is required to allow the hot juices that have escaped during the cooking process to be reabsorbed into the brisket.

Short ribs are cut from the rib and plate primals and a small corner of the square-cut chuck. A full slab of short ribs is typically about 10 inches square, ranges from 3-5 inches thick. This recipe is one easy and good way to cook ribs. |

| From Wikipedia - Succotash is a food dish consisting primarily of corn and lima beans or other shell beans. Other ingredients may be added including tomatoes and green or sweet red peppers. Because of the relatively inexpensive and more readily available ingredients, the dish was popular during the Great Depression in the United States. It was sometimes cooked in a casserole form, often with a light pie crust on top as in a traditional pot pie. In some parts of the American South, any mixture of vegetables prepared with lima beans and topped with lard or butter is called succotash. Not yet rated |
