| Top Recipes Roundup from Deep South Dish |
 |
Y'all liked the Labor Day Roundup of Dips, Burgers, Ribs, Sides & More post so much last Friday, and in fact, it was one of the top posts for the week, that I decided to gather up some of the other favorite recipes that were most popular on Deep South Dish in the past week.
Interestingly, the most popular recipes last week, were some of the earliest recipes that I published when I started blogging about Southern food here at Deep South Dish. All of them but one dates back to 2009 and 2010, and even the newest one is already two years old. Time flies!
Pin It You can tell that apple season isn't far away because there was renewed interest in my ever popular 'Apple and Cream Cheese Dessert.' Now, granted, this is a shortcut recipe that uses canned pie filling, your own that you've put up, or good ole handy dandy store-bought, but either way it is delicious and super easy to vary the flavors too. Apple is a favorite, but cherry and blueberry are equally delicious. That was the 6th most popular recipe last week.
Following that at number 5 were my 'Skillet Fried Potatoes,' soft fried potatoes, first steamed and then pan fried like hash browns, resulting in a soft, tender inside, but with crispy outer edges. Gracious do I love these potatoes any time of the day.
The fourth favorite recipe last week ended up being another site favorite, 'Creole Stuffed Peppers.' Sweet bell peppers are stuffed with a beef and sausage stuffing, a Creole tomato sauce, and topped with your favorite cheese. I first published these stuffed peppers in 2010 and have had so many compliments on them since, that it's not at all surprising to see them holding their own as one of the top recipes for last week. 
At number three last week was also a site favorite and a true Southern classic, 'Chicken Fried Steak with Southern Style Peppered Milk Gravy.' Definitely a mainstay of the South, it's really just a simple cube steak, dredged in seasoned flour, and topped with a milk gravy that is born out of a simple blond flour roux made with pan drippings, a little bit of bacon drippings and milk. On Deep South Dish since 2009, it's always been a well loved recipe.
A timeless Southern favorite, 'Grandma Mac's Perfect Southern Pound Cake' comes in at number two for last week. In my mind a perfect pound cake is moist, tender, light, fluffy, creamy, and buttery, all at the same time and this one meets every one of those requirements. Just perfect.
And last, no surprises to find the number one recipe last week to be my 'Fall off the Bones Oven Baked Ribs,' not only because it was Labor Day, but also because it's been a popular recipe ever since I first published it in 2009. It doesn't really matter the time of the year either because these ribs are always popular, proving that most of us prefer this method over smoking or grilling because of the ease of preparation and, of course, the results. Delicious.
