Chicken Hash
So much goof southern cooking comes from the necessity of stretching ingredients to make the most of them. Chicken hash in an opportunity to use every scrap. "It's like hog's-head hash," Tom explains. "You use everything leftover from the hog you haven't eaten. This goes back to the days when there wasn't abundance." He recommends serving chicken hash for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
