New twists on traditional Southern favorites
Southern food is more than cornbread, biscuits, and fried chicken. James Farmer revamps the menu with his own twists on traditional Southern dishes (ergo, Peach and Pecan Chicken Salad, Collard Cole Slaw, Plum and Persimmon Pork Tenderloin). Stitched together with a combination of tradition and nostalgia, Farmer’s dishes are updated for today’s lifestyle without sacrificing the scrumptious delight that is the hallmark of Southern foods, all using what is fresh and best, gleaned from the land and garden and steeped in heritage.

Top customer reviews ATLGuy 3.0 out of 5 starsIt's Almost A Coffee Table Book! December 7, 2014 Format: Hardcover|Verified Purchase I gotta say, James Farmer is certainly accomplished in so many different areas - be it gardening, cooking, decor, the perfect host etc - so I think of him as selling more of an overall lifestyle. This cookbook is one with great photography, James' signature heartwarming stories and memories, and an interesting variety of southern recipes. As I read through the book (and this is one you wanna just sit down and read!), I saw some interesting updates on classic southern recipes. He did motivate me to start using my cast iron skillet more often in my cooking. Why not 5 stars? The ultimate rating of a cookbook for me is how the recipes turn out. I have tried several of the recipes and 2 of 3 have been flops. In particular, the BBQ Lima Beans I have made twice and they're just not good. I can attribute it to the cook (ME), but I will recommend this book just for the fantastic anecdotes and beautiful photography. I've got Dinner On The Grounds, and will give it a try and see how those recipes work out for me.
