So who here is the cook in their family? Anything you are "known" for?

I do all the cooking right now, it comes with getting off of work a couple hours before the wife. I like to experiment in the kitchen though, so there is nothing Im really "known" for. Although I do make a mean venison stew if I say so myself!

I love to cook...I do most of the cooking.. learned it all from my dad. Crockpot, my favorite tool! Slow cooking is the key!

I love the crock pot. Trying to find a good chili recipe right now. Want to make some this weekend.

I also am learning some good BBQing. Love the slow cooking and fire smell. I spent time this summer with a relative who had a good smoker, so I did a lot of that. Just don't have the room at my house for firewood, smoker and fire pit, but did buy an electronic water smoker. Its not the same, but its something to learn on.

I love grilling . I grill salmon and mahi mahi mostly .

Jason , do you make conch fritters or even like them ? I really miss them from the days of spending my summers in Fla. and would give my right arm for some .

I haven't tried fish yet. I'm a bit nervous. I still don't have a real grill either yet. I would love to smoke a nice salmon though. One of my favorite fish.

I don't know how to make conch fritters, but boy are they good. I'm near the Tarpon Sponge Docks and it is heavily Greek influenced there. The Gyro's there are amazing. However, at the end is a good place for fresh fish. That is one thing I will truly miss if I ever move. I love seafood.

I normally do the cooking for supper and breakfast on the weekends. I'm in the same boat as rough ashlar. I get off work 2 hours before my wife, so I normally have supper ready when she gets home. I play around in the kitchen also, and one of her favorites that I make is homemade shrimp alfredo over spaghetti. The kids really seem to like it too.
