My Review:
Rating-


This is a good cookbook to have on your cookbook self if you like southern cooking. I live in the south, so I must confess this is very much how I cook. I tried some of these recipes and a couple didn’t fly with me or the family, I had one went over very well, it was the slow cooker pot roast, I used pork instead of beef and it turned out very tender and tasted wonderful. My biggest disappointment is there are no pictures, other than what’s on the cover. You can find 115 recipes from sweet tea to southern deserts. I myself will be buying this one, so I can try more recipes in the future.
