Great topic! My favorite vegetable to grow is, definitely, okra! That said, I couldn't tell you what my favorite variety is yet because we've only ever just grown what we could get at Walmart, and I couldn't tell you what varieties those even were. This year, however, we're growing multiple different varieties including Jambalaya, Burgundy, and Beck's Big Buck (from some seed that [USER=3]@Meadowlark[/USER] was kind enough to send me). So, I'll have a good idea later this year which of those three is and I'm sure I'll have plenty to say about all three when harvest time comes. I'm planning to use all three for everything we use okra for, to see which ones are best for which applications. Who knows, next year I may only be growing a single variety of whichever turns out to be a favorite, but only time will tell that story!
