“My family was spread all over the place like bread crumbs, and sometimes I didn't know where it was all leading. But it was like Kitchen Sink, where you started out with a batch of stuff, and an idea, and then what you came up with at the end was a completely different flavor. It could still be delicious" -Steffy”

“How do you get the chicken this crispy?" I asked. The meal was a mixture of the saltiest and crunchiest fried chicken and the buttermilkiest and sweetest waffles and syrup.
"Oil," Auntie Gina said. "You want your breading like this, you've got to fry it in rivers of oil."
We talked a little bit more about how Harry liked to squeeze a blop of syrup from the bottle on each bite of chicken and waffle just so he could get the exact amount of maple flavor, and everybody laughed.”

“By summer's end, the crepe myrtles and magnolias were all overgrown, and their petals littered the sidewalks like when meat is so tender it falls right off the bones. I remember at Grandpa Falcon's barbecues, he'd do barbecue pork chops and beef ribs and chicken legs. And I remember how, when you picked up a drumstick, hunks of juicy meat would slide right off the leg bone. For me, it's all about the cooking down here. Yam-pecan pies, Brussels sprouts and egg whites, chicken and waffles.”
