My lasagne. It got me so much puss.
Failing that, I make a damn good chilli.

I made pesto pasta with italian sausage recently. Anyone that knows me well was impressed because I usually live on whatever I can scrounge up from my immediate surroundings.

I made this kickass brisket that also leaves a wonderful gravy. The gravy can be saved and used as pasta sauce.

Breakfast: My dad's oatmeal
Dinner: My dad's beef-barley soup
My dad isn't the most versatile cook, but the things he does, he does fucking spectacularly. I still can't do his soup 100% justice, but I'm getting close.
For desert... For desert I couldn't pick one. I have so many fantastic deserts. I'm a a decent cook, but I am exceptional crafter of things that will kill you slowly.
I suppose if I had to pick one... My usual 4th of July contribution to our gatherings, probably. My dutch apple pie... Made with a secret blend of apples, flavored with a couple of spices you don't normally find in an apple pie, some apple brandy in there, some lemon zest and ginger, the streusel piled high, with a big crock of homemade vanilla icecream to go with it.

The thing I do to impress people and the reason why is at the end, between this and the end there's some random spergin' where I will start with some things that people like way more than that one thing.
Cutting and trimming my own meat(not in the troonish way) means that I can get it exactly like I want. A pork chop with a tender loin medallion is something people like, it's something you don't see in a supermarket.
Knowing my stove so well I have the time down like a clockwork ninja, one flip, no need to check if it's done. That makes some people anxious until they cut into it. Serve with gratin potatoes where people suggest more complicated ways to make it but it's not necessary, the old ways still work. It takes longer but it's not like it is more work.
I'm good at the sweet stuff, being from thin-pancake country I can make good crepes. I hate crepes, pancakes and waffles.
I make great pies and when making apple pie I arrange the apple slices into pleasing patterns and with my special dough it tastes and looks great. I don't like pie, too sweet.
Cinnamon buns, vanilla buns, cakes and tarts, I don't like them but they're easy to make and it's fun to make them look pretty.
My blueberry sweet bread is something people like unless I make it the way I like it: minimal sugar.
Cardamom dough with blueberries. Not my picture.
----
The thing I bring out when trying to impress people, or make an impression, is far simpler than anything else.
You know how when someones dog has gotten friendly with you it might bring you its favorite toy and (mentally) says 'hey, hey! look at this shit, three tennis balls in a tied up sock, isn't that just fucking fantastic?"
Here's my three-tennis-balls-in-a-sock, it doesn't look like much but it is fantastic and it is something I want to share with people.
Gravlax. It's raw salmon with salt, sugar, dill and a couple of whole white pepper corns. The best and simplest version but holy shit whoever took that picture messed up the recipe.
Don't trust Jamie Oliver or Gordan Ramsay and their Guy Fieri like recipes of it.

I make a veggie strudel that's roast veggies in a phyllo dough crust. Most people seem to really like it. Phyllo dough isn't the easiest to work with but I've mastered it over time.
I also make good pierogies and borscht.

Love heart. Deer hearts and liver might honestly be my favorite part of the animal, even more than the back straps.
I love when I party hunt, because even if i dont get a deer that day I know I'll get some meals because I take all hearts and livers that weren't hit by a slug home because nobody else wants them. The other rednecks don't know what they're missing.
To keep with the thread topic, my most impressive cooking feats seem to come from wild game and fish, my brunswick stew made with squirrel or rabbit is fucking brag worthy ngl, or my wild duck with apple chutney, and man after a couple beers and several miles of wading through streams and rivers, my fresh lemon pepper trout cooked on a bonfire can blow minds.
