  1. Hey Grandpa Harry! I liked this recipe. I left out the tabasco sauce because my sausage was really spicy. Next time I'll add it. I'm thinking the next time I make this dish I'm going to add a layer of cornbread over the top and bake it longer.

I'm a southern cook living in LA, that's Los Angeles, not Louisiana, unfortunately. Don't know how I developed a love for southern cooking, but since nobody around these parts does it right, I had to learn authentic southern cooking techniques on my own.
