Anything fried is usually very good. The best southern deserts are fried pies. But good luck finding homeade ones(they take a lot of work.)

If you are in Georgia get some cobbler and if they have blue bell ice cream hit it up with vanilla ice cream. Georgia is home of the famous georgia bell peach. It also has excellent peanuts. Fruit pies are usually a safe and great combination with vanilla blue bell. Blue Bell is by far the best ice cream I've had in our country. It's better than a lot of the homeade ice creams I've had(this coming from a southern boy)

Make sure you get some fried chicken and mashed potatoes and green beans.

Man you even spelled that right but I read it wrong and all I could think of is you wanting to find a region where the precipitation is rather sparse. Then you said dinner time was soon and I just had a vision of Wile E Coyote. :eek: :confused:

I'll snap out of it ... okay. Yeah, southern dessert. Pecan pie bro. The best one I ever had comes from Gregg's Restaurant in RI. Man, when you get back up to God's Country I am so gonna see to it that you get that sweet sticky thing going on in your mouth so that you'll do almost anything for a glass of milk to wash it down with. Oh it's to die for Jamie but you can't have any because you're in the wrong part of the county Dude. Come back to the NE, man. :)

This is the Torment Jamie Hour. ;)

Banana pudding is good, but Key-lime pie is best in Key west. That stuff is amazing.

If you want to make great southern desserts at home that uses at least 9 cups of butter per recipe, find a cookbook by Paula Dean. Thats all you'll ever need.

A fried pie is this buddy.



I think you are thinking of this



which was ok, but not fantastic. Deep fried peaches with cream was much better.

FYI if you're in Texas it's called Pea-Con not pea-can.

Here is a recipe for Chocolate pecan pie.
