Please give me a recipe that is one of your go to ones that people seem to enjoy. Something from YOUR neck of the woods.

I've saved this recipe from an old German neighbor of mine; the one who made the best warm German potato salad........
It's not something I would serve on Father's Day, however, great for when the grandkids visit........or for an anytime "lunch" or Saturday quick supper.....
It was called "Tailgating" something or other.......but is actually just:
ITALIAN SLOPPY JOES WITH CHEESE IN HOT DOG BUNS
1 lb ground beef
8 oz. "pizza sauce" (found near jarred spaghetti sauces)
1 tablespoon minced fresh onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1/4 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
6 hot dog buns
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Brown ground beef in skillet over medium-high heat, and drain grease.
Add pizza sauce and spices to meat. Bring to boil, stirring, then turn to low, cover and cook 15 minutes.
Spoon the meat mixture onto hot dog bun bottoms. (I use the Kings Hawaiian Hot Dog rolls)....ditto for their H.B. buns.
Top with mozzarella cheese which should melt on the hot meat and cover with bun tops.
The guys love these. Above recipe makes 6, but you can double or triple the recipe.
