New Years Day feast for 2024

[BluewaterFever]

Just wondering what everyone will be having for their supper to celebrate the new year.
We will be sticking with a pork butt on the smoker along with kickin collards, cornbread and black-eyed peas.
Gonna put the but on the Green egg to s l o w smoke all night long at 225°
Rubbed this 9 #er out a little while ago with the "Meat Church " Holy Gospel seasoning and let it sit until tonight and then introduce it to pecan and red oak smoke!

We`ll be having mustard and collards out of the garden, dried blackeyes, all cooked with smoked hog jowl, home made pepper sauce and chow chow, cracklin` cornbread, spiral sliced ham, baked sweet potatoes, and banana split pie for dessert.

I'm still pondering. Leaning towards crappie. Might go squirrel hunting instead. Never know.

 

[WOODIE13]

Definitely some fried cabbage, cornbread and probably fried taters

The ole alpha-gal has ruled out the traditional New Year's fare for me, i.e. pork and stuff flavored by pork................ Something that swims will be on the menu here in some form or fashion.

 

[B. White]

Collards, purple hulls and biscuits with some thickened up stewed maters. We'll start tonight and finish the leftovers tomorrow.

 

[Mexican Squealer]

Oysters, shrimp and crab creole today. The usual New Years stuff tomorrow

Man! I haven't had crab in so long. Sounds great

 

[Triple C]

Low Country boil tonite, followed by the traditional southern fare tomorrow - collard n turnip greens, black-eye peas, pork roast, creamed taters, broccoli casserole, deviled eggs n cornbread.

Kind of a charcuterie thing this afternoon/evening. I got a little carried away with the contents so we may have to start eating in the afternoon to put a dent in it. Tomorrow it will be hoppin' John and collards with a smoked turkey leg in 'em for seasoning and probably some cornbread. New Years is one of my favorite meal of the year!

Our New Year's Day meal will be the same as Nicodemus' as it has been for 40 years or so.

I go with the hog jowls, love 'em, but I don't do the collards and blackeyed peas. Me nor my wife neither one likes them. I guess that's why I've never been prosperous. I'm doing the cornbread tonight with some deer backstrap. We'll have hog jowls for breakfast, and burgers tomorrow night. Can't beat starting the new year off with a burger.

When I was in Alaska…largest king legs I ever saw or ate

Went ahead and added some corn out of the freezer, since I made a big mess for the wife to clean up anyway.

When I told the family that I was once again cook'n the traditional New Years pork.. peas.. and greens I was questioned "Why, it never helped us before?" To which I replied "Just imagine how bad of shape we'd be in if we hadn't been eat'n it all these years."

Dadgum…….. we spent 12 days in AK in June and didn’t have the first crab leg….. wondering now how that happened ?!?

 

[WOODIE13]

It's started, halusky, cheese sticks, jalapeños bites and deviled eggs...

Great start.

 

[ryork]

Broiled lobster tail, charred garlicky broccolini, and taters adante style.

Had a few leftover Lima beans from a few nights ago in the frig. Made some Lima bean hummus with those, basically the beans, lemon juice, garlic, cumin and olive oil.

I'd like to have about a pickup truck load of those!
Except, that would probably cost about as much as my truck did.

Last night looked more like game day grub spread!
Today will be much more on the traditional side with a few tweaks since the wife and I aren’t too fond of blackeye peas! I’m on the @NCHillbilly train when it comes to most peas! Will most likely have pintos or northern beans instead.
