Bob Lemmons, born a slave around 1850, Texas.

“Everybody’s mama’s got a recipe,” says Hoover Alexander, a fifth-generation Texan and the impresario of Hoover’s Cooking in Austin. In his own home, the finer points of CFS are drawn from his parents’ backgrounds—his mother grew up on a farm in the Texas blackland prairie, his father on a ranch in Pilot Knob—and his experience in the cooking corps at Harry Akin’s Night Hawk Restaurants, Austin landmarks from 1932 to the late 1970s and the first restaurants in the city both to serve African-American customers and to offer career-track training to women and people of color. By the time Mr. Alexander began cooking at the Night Hawk, its CFS was the distillation of hundreds of family recipes. This recipe uses the Night Hawk seasonings, but unlike the restaurant, which deep-fries its CFS, Mr. Alexander fries it in a cast-iron skillet as his mother did.
