Personal Notes:
This is one of my Grandpa Lackey's famous recipes that he made whenever he came to visit. After his sight started failing, he very seldom cooked for himself. I was lucky enough, while living with him and my Aunt Cille in California, to talk him into showing me how to make this luscious dish. Thank you Grandpa for sharing. I love you and miss you!
