Cajun food is great. Basically, southern food in general is good. You can't get boiled peanuts up north. Besides food? Not really.

Eh Maryland, and Baltimore in particular has everything from grits to chowders. If you're thinking about a crawfish boil/stew/gumbo, they have those too, and the superior crab version.

Do you know how easy it is making boiled peanuts?

Its literally just peanuts boiled in salty water forever

Super easy in a slowcooker or even a regular pot

You can have them whenever and wherever you want

Minnesota State fair. Boiled peanuts were added in 2022.

Next?

I mean.. Dave Anderson's Old Southern BBQ is called southern... Won some awards.

To be fair, I have only had BBQ in Texas and Memphis, so grain of salt.

Else you have black market st. Paul - wouldn't call it "southern" when it's -10 degrees and they are smoking up some pork, but damn good smoked BBQ.

Yeah Famous Dave seems to have lost a step since he sold his namesake...

Well, but you have an international airport close by, a major mall, rent's in the mail, and you can always find a parking space. Women out number the men two to one and there's parks and zoos and.... Shhh.

Cant get boiled peanuts up north

Canned or fresh? Because I can buy them canned. I wouldn't but the option is there!

But I do agree the food is good. Southern and Cajun both. Also Creole.
