The shyt you saying really doesn't matter...
Black culture in Atlanta is a lot more prevalent than it is in Dallas yet the black food in Dallas(and Los Angeles) is better than the black food in Atlanta

And idk about soul food as a whole but the fried chicken I've had in Texas is better Than the chicken I've had in Memphis
Well texas as a whole is known for bbq to begin with so i think what i said is relevant when comparing two cities in Texas.

And fried chicken ain't the end all be all of bbq memphis is most known for their dry rub.

South Carolina, hands down.

My grandfather was from Aiken. I've had the best soul food from there, Columbia, and Charleston.

South Carolina along with Virginia and Mississippi were some of the wealthiest slave states and so the wealthy planter families spent alot of money importing dishes and having their house slaves experiment with cooking methods from Europe.

So the house slaves from those states were able to become experienced with cooking with high quality ingredients and perfecting american dishes with European cooking methods.

It's no coincidence that the best soul food comes from those states.

What I'm saying is just because a city has more black culture doesn't automatically make their soul food better

I got a lot of potnas from the NO. One of them sent me down to the 7th ward(crossing streets was St. Bernard and Durgenois) to Manchu's for yaka mein and chicken and that shyt wasn't good either bruh. Outside of that Po Boy, everything we had in the NO was trash, I can't believe people hype the food up there like that, Dallas has WAAAAY better food it aint even close.
