What to expect

As you may or may not know I live in Southeast Texas. 20 minutes from Louisiana,45 mins. from the Gulf,10 mins.from the bay. There is an eclectic gathering of nationalities and personalities-Cajuns,Creoles,Asians,Viets,Mexicans Latin Americans,African Americans and TEXANS. We have 2 growing seasons-Hot and Mild. Think Mediterranean.
Beef,Pigs,Chickens,Goats and Wild Game make up a majority of the proteins found throughout SETexas and Texas. The Gulf and Bay provide Snapper,Oysters,other species of Fish. The land provides Chiles,Tomatoes,Corn,Okra,Greens,Squash and many other seasonal vegetables. Basically it grows here.
As a caterer and competition cook ,we cooked food for the masses that made us fan favorites. 1500 people can not be wrong.I am not a foodie and not a chef a simple cook who enjoys simple food with simple tastes. I hope to teach and at times entertain with stories and food-soon.
