After Pie , Tossing , Carving , making a soup with lots of other things , and maybe beer ...... There's really not much you can do with a pumpkin .

At least not me........

I'm pretty sure if I do this Throwdaown , Pumpkin won't be there.

Peace,
P. Dreadie
 
The sides can be anything at all, they don't have to be a completely seperately cooked dish......A slice of bread or a bread roll can be classed as a side!!!!

Like say you make some chicken on skewers (that's the comfort food), then the sides could be a spoon full of basil pesto for dipping and a slice of sourdough bread.......DONE!!! :lol:

At least that's the way i'm understanding it......

A spoonful of pesto is a side? No. Traditionally a plate is made up of meat, chix, or fish, a vegetable (1 side) and a starch (like rice, pasta, or potato...thats the 2nd side). Dipping sauces are not sides. Guacamole or salsa is not a side. Those are dips and condiments.
 
TB, did you think this one was going to be so hard? LOL I know you and I get it but.... :insert weird smiley:

This is slowly turning into a "you know who" thread methinks. I have said this would be the absolute easiest T-down to figure out. I realize now that is just crazy talk.:crazy:

Reset the meter on me x2.
 
It's just that everyone (this is a world wide forum) has different views on 'comfort food' and that's why this is a good throw down due to the amount of different meals that we will see but I think that for a large number of people, 'comfort' food is a single dish affair. I have never and will never have additional sides with any of my comfort food unless it's a bread roll or something 100% totally quick and easy.......(I will only be adding them for this throwdown, which then isn't a true representation of my comfort food).IMO, it's not only comfort because you enjoy eating but also because it's dead simple to make........

I know i'm being agrumentitive about it but it seems that there are 2 sides to this throwdown and it's getting close to the start date and people are still very unsure.......

Sorry to be an a**hole but there it is.

Hmmm, I'm not usually like this.......I must need a drink.:lol:
 
cheesy grits
hush puppies
garlic mashed potatoes
bacon roasted potatoes
scalloped potatoes
green bean casserole
green beans with garlic and oil
whipped plantains
tostones
black-eyed peas
creamed corn
corn pudding
jalapeno corn bread
jerk hash
fried green tomatoes
baked beans
mac n cheese
sweet potato fries
waffles
okra with stewed tomatoes
candied yams
collard greens
baked stuffing
 
I know you still love me THP and none of those would go with what i call comfort food. Sorry, don't hate me please.............I still have more to say but I won't continue.....I still have my thoughts on it all though....:neutral:

Comfort food is a loose term. This comp if for the type that is served with two sides.

Just be creative guys. You can do it ;)
