"....my dad and I feasted on ramps and "killed" lettuce the night before."

Would you mind terribly if I asked you to translate that sentence into English?

Thanks.

It’s a southern dish...

Ramps are a wild plant...Kind of a cross between a garlic and an onion...
Killed lettuce is shredded lettuce with the ramps put in then hot bacon grease poured over it...
