Leading off on Brian's lasagna

What would you think is your signature dish?

For me, it's probably BBQ.

BBQ is a genre, not a dish.

You do - you just have to find it within yourself to pick a dish from within your genre... For example, your ABT's are off the hook! Personally I think i have the brisket thing dialed in good!

Not to be boastful, but there are so many dishes that I make well that it's really hard to choose one and say that it is mine. Very few of them are original to me. I modify all of the recipes that I use, but the rule is that you have to add 3 ingredients to call it original and that cannot be just adding or subtract the volume of existing ingredients in a recipe.

These days, my specialty is burnt pots.
