Hey everyone I thought I would start a thread for everyone to share their traditional cooking photos and recipes. Even generation old recipes are excepted 
A little bio on me and how cooking grasp me at an early age. I grew up here in Eastern North Carolina with a family cooking on every holiday and using cooking as a way to get everyone together. As a very small kid I was the one in the family that walked through the spice racks smelling every spice that my grandmother had. Started off cooking at the age of 2 when I started helping my grandmother make bread. Fast forward a decade... I found myself growing up at a rather hunting club each weekend in Hertford County. Which is located in the far North East corner of North Carolina. We had around 150 members attending each weekend. My Father and several family friends would be in the kitchen every morning at 4am to cook breakfast. I began going in the kitchen to hang out so I could get the food right as it came off the griddle haha. Before I knew it I was cooking the eggs, maybe some sausage here and there, and it progressed from there. Went from cooking breakfast to cooking dinner also. Usually a lot of skillet bread, salads, baked/grilled potatoes, and of course the meat that would be on the large hog cooker. Usually the hunters would donate part of their game to the kitchen to go along with the store bought beef. Now I cook for the family as the elders in the family can't cook as much as they use to and cook for my own household. I have adopted a lot of recipes from my grandparents kitchen and quite a few from several members of the hunting club I mentioned earlier.
I have several staple dishes I will post up here in the beginning. As time passes and I cook more and more I'll get into some of the off the wall dishes. During the summer as the garden blooms and produces some fruits of the labor I'll be posting up some of the things I cook with the fresh produce. Maybe even some of the canning I will be doing. Here at first I am relying on some photos I took before I thought making a thread. The lighting may not be the best. Just bare with me at first. All photos will be taken with my Turbo 2 just to keep an Android perspective in it.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone's recipes that may be a staple in your own household or just a family favorite. Feel free to post anything up.
