STEWED TOMATOES (GOBBLEDYGOOK)
This is what we called 'Gobbledygook' when we were kids. It's actually a Southern version of very sweet, stewed tomatoes. It isn't the most attractive dish in the world, but it's delicious. Don't try making this with fresh tomatoes. It won't work. And you really do need that much sugar in there.

JERSEY FRIED TOMATOES
This is a recipe that my mom has made every summer since she was little. My brothers and I anxiously wait for the New Jersey tomato crops because that is the only tomato my mom will use! The key to this recipe is the bacon grease if you don't use it then it won't get the proper flavor.

- In a large skillet fry tomato slices on each side until golden brown. (Make sure that when you flip them and during cooking that enough bacon grease is in the pan.).
- Remove and place on paper towel.

- For a different taste my mom enjoys just dipping the tomato slices in flour and skipping the egg mixture and bread crumbs and frying the same way.
