Yum was the general consensus from all of my dinner guests. LoversDream, this was an outstanding recipe as is. For the 1st time in a very long time I did not change a thing. I served it with a garlicky vinaigrette dressed spinach salad and hot, Italian bread. Thanks for a memorable meal!

Oh what a beautiful feeling! Delicious dish, easy to prepare and beautiful presentation. Served with a green salas and homemade vinagrette. Also because of allergies I served the pecans in a side dish and allowed my guests to garnish at will.

Born in Macon Georgia. Met a wonderful British lady while playing spades one day..and the rest is history! Hope to get back to Georgia soon -- I miss being able to buy simple things like Crisco (or any kind for that matter!) shortening, Corn Meal, SNOW CRAB!!! I love "smoke cooking", that's not so easy over here either! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
