But what Cash is lesser known for is his love of cooking. The Man in Black enjoyed preparing food, with an emphasis on Southern comfort foods, and even invited other celebrities over to enjoy his home-cooked meals with them. The dish he is most known for is his famous "Old Iron Pot Chili," which contains an interesting ingredient used to thicken the stew: cornmeal.

While you may not want to trust every celebrity recipe you come across, it's a good bet you could trust Johnny Cash with chili. Raised on the Southern cooking of his home state, Arkansas, Cash retained that love of homestyle cooking his whole life. Even after the legendary musician became a household name, he liked to cook himself. In fact, his son, John Carter Cash, even compiled the family recipes in "The Cash and Carter Family Cookbook."
