Outer Banks Banana Pudding

Courtesy of Wanda Dokken. A native to the Outer Banks, she shared this recipe from her family collection many years ago. It’s a bit different than the traditional meringue types but equally delicious.

Ingredients

Directions

Make pudding as directed on box. Fold pudding into sour cream. Fold this mixture into cool whip. Layer with wafers and bananas. Let it sit in refrigerator several hours.

MJ’s BBQ Chicken

Kudos to Michelle and David. I had to invite myself to dinner to get the recipe for this one. MJ does like things hot and spicy. Keep the rolls or rice ready to sop up this fiery sauce. The sauce is also excellent with country style ribs.

Note to site visitors outside North Carolina: The two sauces in this recipe are very regional. Both can be ordered online: Carolina Treet website and Scott’s website. By the way, if you’re ever in Goldsboro NC, ask a local about Scott’s restaurant. It’s off the beaten path, but a step into 1950’s North Carolina. Worth the trip just to see the aluminum wrapped formica tables.

Directions

Taste and adjust sauce ingredients to your tastes. Pour over chicken or ribs and bake until the meat falls off the bones.
