This dish made up of the cornbread waffles is like the one served at Hippie Mommas in San Antonio, Texas. It also happens to be the most popular dish there (and with good reason). You can definitely forgo the chili if you're looking for a sweet dish but I recommend trying it this way before making your own version.

This recipe is a good try when you crave for Mad Maui BBQ's heart-stopping Texas Beef Brisket Melt. It tastes as good as the real thing. This recipe also doesn't call for caramelized onion but feel free to add some if you want. I love decadent sandwiches like this. It reminds me of state fair foods which are fatty, fried, and delicious!

This is the golden age of seafood. As more recipes are turning towards proteins like lobster and squid. In this recipe, fried calamari is the main star. The breading is delicate and the calamari itself is tender–just the way you like it! If you're throwing a get-together, I recommend bringing this dish along. It is light and perfect for every palate.

Jerk chicken can be hard to master at home. Since it has a specific flavor profile which needs ingredients such as pimento wood. This recipe, yet, makes it easier to put together and master. The best parts about this are the texture and taste of the chicken. It tastes like the jerk chicken you'd find in Jamaica.
