This is an excellent book for those who want to learn about authentic southern soul cooking. Harrell was a caterer who took her Tennessee-style of food up to Milwaukee and fed it to the Bucks! From what I read in the book, the team loved it, and I can understand why, with her fantastic recipes for chicken and dressing, from-scratch soups, barbecue. and my favorite, jelly cake. The author also shares her heartwarming story of learning to cook without cookbooks, and her strong grandmother's influence. By far, this is the best of the soul food cookbooks out there.
