So I'm a fat guy, always have been. Well not always but even then I was a fat guy at heart. That said I've had several favorite foods\meals over the years...bbq brisket and pulled pork with potato salad, prime rib with salad and baked sweet potato , crab legs with more crab legs! and lasagna with garlic bread just to name a few. But the past few years my hands down 2 favorites are my moms chicken and dumplings and my girlfriends scalloped potatoes and ham. How bout you guys and gals?

I’ve been on a big Mexican kick the past few years. I’ve fine tuned my wet burrito recipe so it’s pretty killer now, soft shell tacos, dry burritos, fajitas. 

One I could eat at least weekly and never tire of?

 

Broiled salmon - just a little butter, salt and pepper

Steamed asparagus - a drizzle of butter over it

Twice-baked potato - cheddar cheese and bacon bits...skip the sour cream

 

Apple crisp for dessert

For me it's more ethnicity. I absolutely love Italian food and Chinese food! 

Easy. 
 

seven course beef.  It’s a Vietnamese party meal.  It’s best in a big group. 

My favorite meal? The one that's in front of me. Food is like music. Lots of good, lots of bad, and few fantastic. 

I’ve got too many favorites. But one of them involves fishing, so that wins. Bass fry 

 

My 2 favorite ways to eat my wifes mothers cooking.

 

 

 

#1 - 3 BBQ's and lg fry from Old Clinton's BBQ

#2 - Sausage, egg, & cheese breakfast     sandwich from Johnny V's

#3 Fried Spotted Bass, hushpuppies, shrimp, & slaw.

The first two are always on the way to fish so.....

Just about anything served while I'm enjoying this view

So weak margaritas and sizzlin fajitas? ?

Battered crappie fillets( or bream fillets). Potato salad, baked beans, hot buttered roll.

I like a lot of different foods, but I guess if I could call a favorite, it would be some type of seafood dish. Every time I go out to eat with my family, my first review of the menu goes right to the seafood section. I'd rather have a baked or broiled fish and steamed lobster. 

 

Shell fish can be baked, steamed, raw - in the case of oysters or quahogs - or in a soup.

Real specific - Rendevouz dry rubbed ribs with greens and fried okra. 
 

otherwise - leftover spaghetti. I make the sauce.

Now that cooler weathers here my fiancé won’t complain and actually make me shepards pie. Never used to like it but she made it a few years ago and it quickly became my favorite thing. That and she does this bacon and chicken spaghetti thing that’s also really good but bacon makes everything good.

Pretty much this.

The company is always a bigger factor in the quality of the meal than the flavors.

Single favorite food is and has always been fresh walleye after a day of fishing at a remote outpost in Canada.

Its always a prime bone in ribeye cooked on the smoker/grill (reverse seared) with a bottle of cab or similar big red blend.  I'd eat it twice a week and then just not eat the other days if I could.  I don't need sides, but if you make me choose I'd throw on some grilled asparagus and some roasted baby new potatoes.

Apparently ~

However, sometimes it's the company that really sets it apart.

I have favorites in every category and/or ethnicity.  I would never dream of limiting myself to just 1.??

And the Tecáte of course. 
 

Man I’m homesick for that place. 

No disrespect to Mrs Mike after eating her food for 52 yrs. 

 

But….

Mama’s tomato sauce

Mama’s sausage and peppers 

Mama’s linguine and clams 

and finally….

Mama’s ricotta bread!!

 

God, I miss that woman.

Every Christmas my uncle makes home baked, slow roasted beef prime rib roast and cheesy hash browns at his house. That roast is so d**n tender I can cut it with a fork. That’s the meal I most look forward to every year.

 

I don’t get to eat it very often but I like fresh caught saltwater seafood too. Snapper was fantastic when we caught some and had it prepared years ago. Beats the heck out of any freshwater fish.

 

I can do major damage at a seafood buffet. The ocean called, they’re running out of crab legs…

I’ve always been known as the guy that has two hollow legs. I can literally eat three times the food that most people can eat, and I’ve not gained a pound since high school (25 years ago). 
I love just about anything I’ve tried, but if I had to choose one, it’d be a great big ole roasted turkey dinner with all the trimmings, and two, or maybe even three slices of my wife’s homemade pumpkin pie for dessert with some whip cream on top. Those are the kinds of meals where the belt comes off and the pants button comes undone, and your lying on the floor cause you can’t do anything else for a few hours except “digest”, and it’s pure bliss?. 

Real authentic Mexican food prepared by Mama Dora, Especially tamales with nopales relish and beef tongue tacos.
