Besides Stuffed Ham, are their any other dishes that are uniquely Maryland? I'm not looking for the obvious like Crab Cakes, etc but more like Beaten Biscuits and Turtle Soup.
Smith Island Cake
"Effective October 1, 2008, the Smith Island Cake became the State Dessert of Maryland (Chapters 164 & 165, Acts of 2008; Code State Government Article, sec. 13-320). Traditionally, the cake consists of eight to ten layers of yellow cake with chocolate frosting between each layer and slathered over the whole. However, many variations have evolved, both in the flavors for frosting and the cake itself."

That is really neat. I did a search and found the Smith Island Baking Co. I think I might order my Step-Dads cake from them when he and my mom come to visit.
The traditional yellow w/chocolate is yummy.
The banana is to die for...JMO.

I have seen Maryland Fried Chicken advertised before but have no idea how its any different from regular fried chicken.

I believe it's fried with a lid on the frying pan so it steams and fries at the same time. My grandmom used to make it, though I never remember having it. She was known for her fried chicken. MD fried chicken is supposed to be the best.I have seen Maryland Fried Chicken advertised before but have no idea how its any different from regular fried chicken.
Rapa scrapple.
I've always wondered about that too. I've never seen "Maryland" Fried Chicken on a menu in Maryland, but have seen it in Florida.
