It's all about priorities. Collecting premium knives can get expensive. But think how much it costs to eat out nowadays. And even the meat you get in the supermarket has gotten expensive. Have no fear. Just in time for the holidays, I have the answer. Beans. Nutritious and cheap. All you need is a little salt pork or some leftover ham for seasoning. I like pintos, but to each his own.

Of course, they are great with rice, but on this stormy day, I baked some corn bread. I got lucky today. It didn't stick to the cast iron skillet at all.

It came out nice, with a crispy crust. I need to butter this and eat it while it's hot. Sacrifices must be made!

Looks great Horndog. What time is dinner?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Horn Dog its times like this I realize how lucky I am to work where I do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> All the free chicken I want provided I take whats leftover. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> Anyone need a recipe. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I hear you can make broth from the feet, but I never tried it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mmmm... Beans and Corn Bread! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Add some home cooked Turnip Greens with Ham Hocks and you've got a meal fit for a Southern King! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I'm with Jack, what time's dinner? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The only thing I would add is a little Vidalia onion. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Our plant is right in the middle of the growing area.

Chickenplucker......Thats kind of ....GROSS. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> What do you do with those feet?

Not gross at all,you eat that little piece of meat in the palm and then use the nails for a toothpick. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/footinmouth.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Dude you changed the way I look at chicken.

Whatever do you mean? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Darn, CP. I'm really not that fond of chicken anyway. I can eat it on occasion. Your pics have made me grateful for my meatless dinner today. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

LOL!!!!
