Cook the Book: 'Big Bob Gibson's BBQ Book'

I like my own ribs, slow-grilled, with some chew left to them.

I remember my grandmother making dumplings out of flour, salt, and water for her bean soup. I wish I could recapture that flavor.

Cook the Book: Bobby Flay's Grill It!

I'd choose Nigela Lawson. She makes everything look so sensual.

Imo's Pizza in St. Louis

I grew up in St. Louis and on provel cheese. I like Imo's, but St. Louis has better pizza places that use provel as their cheese topping.

I also grew up with White Castle hamburgers, and can't get enough of those, either.

It's hard to convert adults to these different flavors.

Cook the Book: 'Crescent City Cooking'

I haven't had a chance to revisit New Orleans for a decade now, after having fallen in love with their food. So I've taken to cooking it myself. Being in the Midwest, I have to have my andouille, shrimp, and crawfish shipped to me to get the real authentic flavors.

My favorite dish is fried catfish smothered with crawfish etouffee. It captures so many cajun flavors all in one. I accompany it with baked rice to soak up the juices.

I prefer the BBQ that my family members cook the best, but I am open to trying recommended BBQ restaurants, too.

I don't know if one would consider this food, but I remember having snow blocks drizzled with warm maple syrup. Yum!

My fondest childhood memory is the burgers my grandpa used to cook. He was a cook on the iron ore boats back in the day and he made one mean burger. Delicious.

My fondest memory is of my step dad trying to cook crab like my uncle. The crab would be crawling all over our kitchen sink before being put into the big pot on the stove.

We hardly ever went out to eat so I remember when the whole family would go out for a birthday at Bill Knapp's, it was a HUGE deal.

I used to love when we'd get boiled crab and just run through them. We moved from New Orleans and there isn't a place to get them anymore.

My fondest childhood food memory was Thanksgiving at Grammy's house. Though Grammy was not much of a cook and we would have canned gravy, instant mashed potatoes, canned sweet potatoes and in those days, (late 60's) none of those products were good. But, eventhough the food stunk, we still had a good time. Thanks for a great giveaway.
PS: Sorry Grammy, I'm sure your a first rate chef for the angels.
