Here we go! Miss Joy sliced the big 'mater, one slice per sandwich. The flavor was not quite as good the regular sized tomatoes. Thought y'all might like to see what it looked like after it was butchered.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
I don't know if it's my taste buds getting old or these hybridized maters but none taste as good to me as they use to.

That samwich made me hungry!
Big Homer sez;
I know a little bit about " Maters " .
People buy stuff with their eyes.......not taste.
So the farmers grow perfect looking maters, corn, melons etc., Because there is alot of manual labor/hard work involved they grow things that sell.
It is about Dollar$.
Now if you want taste or quality, buy or grow the old time "maters".
This even applies to just about everything anymore. Not just food products.
Doctor appointment today, hopefully.......
I'll be back!

This old thread ain’t been active in a while. What are y’all having tonight?
Me? We have potluck at church every Wednesday night, but I was a mite peckish before hand, so for a snack......buttermilk and cornbread. One of life’s great pleasures.

I’ll agree with Wade and Ray! That’s a real delicacy in my book.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
I like mine with a little salt and pepper in it. And in the spring a big ol green onion on the side is mighty fine too.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
Check it out. It is a rare treat and a little bit of an acquired taste. If you cook cornbread and if you have buttermilk on hand just crumble up some of the cornbread in a glass and cover it up with the buttermilk. Eat with a spoon. It is a traditional dish in our southern states and is usually eaten between meals or after a meal. Some, including my sister, prefer milk (sweet milk) to buttermilk but I much prefer buttermilk. I like my cornbread cooked very crispy, almost to the point of being burned and that, with buttermilk, makes a fine way to finish off a meal or a between meal snack.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
Ray, I agree with your sister, I perfer sweet milk as well. Also good with white gravy. Mmmmm.
Re: What's for supper tonight?
Can't go wrong with cornbread it's good anytime with anything. When I was a young feller my best buddy and I went to Nags Head North Carolina and spent a week with his aunt and uncle. She made cornbread every morning for breakfast with all the normal breakfast foods and I mean a spread. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Now my momma put on a good spread but it was biscuits for breakfast and cornbread for dinner and supper. I ain't never had a good biscuit that I liked better than a good hunk of cornbread but that's just me. Ymmv.
Re: What's for supper tonight?
I too love cornbread. We had white beans and cornbread day before yesterday. Man that was good. Cornbread with butter and honey or sorghum is also a favorite.
That reminds me, here in KY, a delicacy amongst us po’ folk was peanut butter and syrup all mixed up with cornbread or biscuits crumbles up in it. Y’all ever eat that?

That sounds wonderful! My oldest boy makes chicken thighs in the oven with barbecue sauce and then fries potatoes in the side. As a matter of fact that’s what we’re having tonight. Delicious.

I love that with a hot biscuit crumbled up. I use left over biscuits with plenty of butter involved.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
Man tree, that vine ripened, freshly picked tomato sure looks delicious this time of year.
Last night, Brenda made Chicken & Noodles- chicken and onion stock with mushrooms, some sliced carrots and celery, bring my to a boil and add some sliced chicken and bag of egg noodles. Cook until tender. Then I add some crushed red peppers to give it a kick.
Easy as boiling water and great on a cold day!

Re: What's for supper tonight?
That looks good too! My grandma used to make egg noodles a lot as a side dish. Might fine with some brown gravy poured over them.

Re: What's for supper tonight?
Did you ever have gravy made from cornmeal instead or flour? I haven’t, but I remember some of the old men talking about it when I was a kid. They raised more corn than wheat and when the wheat ran out they used corn meal instead.bighomer wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 1:55 pm Can't go wrong with cornbread it's good anytime with anything.

My 14 year old son cooked supper tonight. Barbecued (in the oven) chicken thighs, oven roasted taters and onions, and mushy peas. Man it was good!

Re: What's for supper tonight?
Been a peanut butter and 'surp' fellow since I was a little boy. Still eat it.
Re: What's for supper tonight?
Right now after seeing the BBQ sauce marinated chicken thighs, i am just about to take my 3 remaining ones and marinate them in some BBQ sauce and have 2 tonight and one cold tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.
Re: What's for supper tonight?
I’ve always been partial to cold chicken. Especially cold, leftover fried chicken!
