Eat a huge breakfast. It's hard to mess up eggs, pancakes, etc.


I’ve stayed at some hotels that probably considered that a challenge. LOL.

Grew up in south LA and lived in KY for 5 years.I dont see how you guys make it up there Usually just find a steakhouse or burger joint. Any restaurant called “Cajun” in other states is a hard pass.


Similar but Middle TN. Luckily my wife can cook very well and so can I, so we get our fix. If it says Cajun I just laugh and move on.

It sounded bad when I first heard it. Then I tried it. Dayum.

There ya go. I like mine or purple hulls over a slice of cornbread. Coat the bread w/ a light layer of Duke’s before pouring the peas over. Good stuff.

I was very pleasantly surprised by Foodcraft at the hotel in the State Park a couple of months ago.


Cool. That’s where we are staying.

Thanks all.
Staying at the Lodge. Have been a few times, but a while back.

So far I have Cobalt, The Gulf, and Zekes. Any others you like?

Oh hell yeah. I like it on Publix sourdough though. But Bunny works.

Same. I use ours on the boat all the time. Powered by 2 M18 batteries and lives in a hard case until needed. We love it.
I went for a heavy duty tubular 14’ w/ a double axle for my RZR 1000xp. I love that trailer. Twin 3500lb axles and elec disc brakes on both.

For what you have a single would be fine, but I’d rather have the double. But that’s me. Good luck.

Tag as I’m interested. Never tried them.

Just my take but no parent owes their kid a college education.


I agree.

My oldest went the Military route, NG, and between that and state programs like TN Promise his school was paid for.

My youngest could have done the same, but insisted on an out of state school for athletics. Even against our advice so she did loans. But she did have great academic and athletic scholarships and the room/board/food was the most expensive. Her scholarships covered tuition and a little more.

Sophmore year she moved off campus and that helped a ton. We also helped her when she needed it as Classes and Athletics took up most of the time. She has a little SL debt, but isn’t horrible and now working for someone who will pay it back when she finishes out her contract.
Yep. South MS.

Done it with Coke or RC. Not since being a kid though.

Not really a fan. It’s ok but I prefer Rib Rack more.

Same. It’s fine if you know how to grill it.
I boil everything else first and the shrimp goes in last. My potatoes and sausage are the markers for the flavor I’m looking for. When I put the shrimp in, I stir and watch them. As soon as they “C” up and the peeling separates from the back I pull them. Then spread them out and it’s time to eat.

Works every time for me.

FBD for me is a Miller Lite. Next will be a Hippies & Cowboys IPA. :cheers:

I had some Cobia Wontons down in Grand Isle last Summer. My God were they awesome. No recipe though. Sorry.
