I’m not rating, because I haven’t tried it. In the south, I was taught to cook the okra, after the onions cooked in bacon grease, til it lost some of its stickiness.

Was a hit for big family gathering. I have to give a five.

Recipe was easy to make, but it wasnt as good as I expected it to be.

While at the farmer’s market a couple days ago, I picked up some okra to see if I could attempt okra and tomatoes. I cooked this recipe while tailgating with my family. It was very easy and extremely delicious. It does, however, have a little “kick” to it so if you don’t like spicy, don’t use the hot sauce. It was fantastic and I am definitely going to cook it again real soon.

Delicious and filling recipe. Tastes blend completely.

Threadgill’s is one of the best ‘Southern home cooking’ restaurants around. This is another of my favorite recipes. I grew up eating okra and tomatoes, and I love this recipe.
