Crab & Avocado BLTs On Sourdough

Crab & Avocado BLTs On Sourdough by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on standard BLT sandwiches. The addition of lump crab and avocado make for a delicious sandwich. This would be great with Dungeness crab when in season fresh. I served the sandwiches with seedless red grapes and stone fruit. For a wine I chose a Viansa 2013 Sonoma Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Chilled it…

Carolina Coast Shirmp Bog

Carolina Coast Shirmp Bog by John Spottiswood

A bog (unlike a pilau) is any stew that includes wet, soggy rice. This recipe was adapted from one of my favorite cookbooks, Stews, Bogs, and Burgoos by James Villas. I've left out the bacon for health reasons. It is delicious as is, but would undoubtedly be even more tasty with the bacon.

Scallops and Grits

Scallops and Grits by Carolinaheartstrings

When I moved to the South nearly 20 years ago it did not take me long to discover the Southern favorite shrimp and grits. Such a delicious rich satisfying dish. I decided that I would try my hand at making the dish my own and using my favorite seafood, scallops. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
