Grand Prize Winner of the Taste of the South Recipe Competition which was judged by Matt and Ted Lee, the James Beard Award winning authors of The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook: Stories and Recipes for Southerners and Would-be Southerners.
Unlike most traditional chili recipes which rely on the usual beef and beans, Charleston Chili was created using succulent pulled pork barbecue, country ham, boiled peanuts, and black-eyed peas.
After the competition, Ted Lee described the combination of the flavors in the Charleston Chili as, “…fantastic…clearly an original idea that followed through.”
The full recipe is available on www.huggingthecoast.com which celebrates the pleasures of coastal food and life.

Lowcountry Beauty - What our Founding Fathers Found
Unspoiled, natural beauty!
That's what our Forefathers and first settlers must have found when they made their new home in the Lowcountry of our beloved South Carolina. It must have looked just like this...green, and serene.
Is this a photo from Charlestowne Landing, perhaps? No, just an undeveloped property in West Ashley.
Do you have waterfront property? What's your property appraising for these days? Get an appraisal.

A Lowcountry Seafood Tradition - How to Make SC Hush Puppies
Fried Whiting and Hushpuppies From Marvin's Seafood, North Charleston, SC
Originally uploaded by huggingthecoast.com coastal food blog
Charleston, and the rest of the Lowcountry that hugs our SC Intercoastal Waterways, is the lifeblood and livelihood of our hardworking, dedicated Fishermen and Shrimpers.
We are grateful to always be blessed with fish and shrimp...and round these parts...it's fresh, Buddy!
How to Make SC Hush Puppies
1 cup flour
1 egg
1 cup corn meal
15 oz can cream style corn
1 teaspoon salt
1 large onion chopped
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 jalapenos (chopped fine)
Mix together all ingredients. Spoon in hot cooking oil until your Hush Puppies are brown.
Now some folks do not use the cream corn, In that case add a little milk to the batter until it forms a soft dough - and fry it up as the recipe states.
Some Lowcountry folks add paprika or a pinch of cayenne pepper and garlic.
For SC Cocktail Sauce just mix horseradish and ketchup, a dash of lemon juice and one shot of worcestershire sauce.

SC Rustic Charm and an Old Classic Car
Everywhere you go in SC, you find small pieces of history.
If our buildings and structures could speak, what a tale they would tell! Even the well worn car ads to the charm in this photo.
When we see images like this as we drive by, we often joke and say, "Now there's a fixer-upper," but in reality, this was once someone's home...or a business. Now all that stands is a memory of days gone by.
There is a momentum gaining in the SC Lowcountry to capture old structures and commit their memory to photograph before they are no more.

DreamVest Appraisals - What our Logo Represents - History of the SC Flag
"Image is everything," as the expression goes. Why do we love images of Fire Trucks and Fire Engines in South Carolina?
It's because of what they stand for! Fire Engines are a symbol of safety and security for us. They represent everything we love about order, cleanliness, strength, power, rescue, and integrity.
Notice on the SC Image on the Port Royal Fire Truck?
It's very similar to our Official DreamVest Appraisals Logo!
Why is the State Flag on this Engine? Why do we use such a powerful and inviting image to represent our Company?
SC Symbols - a little bit of interesting SC State Flag History Info:
South Carolina Flag Law

Carolina Lowcounty Sunset Parris Island, SC
History of the Parris Island, SC Depot
Marines were first stationed on Parris Island in 1891, in the form of a small security detachment headed by First Sergeant Richard Donovan. His unit was attached to the Naval Station, Port Royal, the forerunner of Parris Island.
Donovan's unit was highly commended for preserving life and property during hurricanes and tidal waves that swept over the island in 1891 and 1893.
Military buildings and homes constructed between 1891 and World War I form the nucleus of the Parris Island Historic District. At the district center are the commanding general's home, a 19th century wooden dry dock and a turn-of-the-century gazebo—all of which are on the National Register of Historic Places.
MCRD Parris Island: On November 1, 1915, Parris Island was officially designated a Marine Corps Recruit Depot and training was continued from then on. It's a Lowcountry Tradition of Honor.
