It turns out  is the Razorback State, which means we are having razorback (wild boar) stew.

Slow Cooked Collard Greens

Conner and Will only liked the corn bread (big surprise).  Sydney, Allen and I liked everything.  The greens were delicious, everything else was good.

Week 3 - Arizona


We are doing traditional Sonaran food this week for Arizona.
Carne Asada
Pico de Gallo
Mexican Corn
Sonoran Rice
Indian Fry Bread
Arizona Ice Tea
Cinnamon Sugar Fry Bread




Arizona ended up being a big hit with the family.  Everyone's favorite was the Indian fry bread.  The carne asada was a bit dry.  This was Conner and Will's favorite meal so far.  Sydney, Allen and I are still fans of Alabama so far.  Arkansas is next, I have promised not to do roadkill.

Week 2 - Alaska


 
I spent a week looking for caribou/ reindeer sausage locally for our Alaskan meal, we decided at the last minute on halibut and halibut cheeks. 
It looks like we will not be moving to Alaska any time soon after eating this meal.  Sydney said everything was OK except for the potatoes, Conner didn't really like anything except for the Baked Alaska.  Will tried everything and was a thumbs down on the potatoes and the cucumbers.  Chad said everything was delicious but didn't take a bite of anything except the Baked Alaska
