A Southern Sunday

Sunday – September 28th
Dear Foodies,
Last week, I wrote about how my Sunday’s were spent as a young man… and that post reminded me of many Lord’s Day meals spent with friends, family and visiting clergy. Our home was always open to church leaders and if I can brag a bit, they all raved about my Mother’s fine cooking!
My family would often eat Sunday dinner at the home of Emory & Bobbie Johnson. ‘Miss Bobbie’ is a wonderful cook from Alma, Georgia, who always fried chicken to perfection. Her meals never included fancy recipes, but always featured fresh vegetables and desserts made from scratch. An invitation to Miss Bobbie’s is coveted as you are guaranteed a fine Southern meal.
Below are four incredible recipes that I consider synonymous with a Southern Sunday dinner. Because I now live in the city and folks here rarely cook, I will welcome an invitation to your home when you try these fine dishes!
Good cookin’
Ben
Where are the four recipes, bucko?
