Description:
Meet the Neelys: Pat and Gina, husband-and-wife team, hosts of their
own television show, and proprietors of the celebrated Memphis and
Nashville eateries, Neely’s Bar-B-Que.
The Neelys’ down-home approach to cooking has earned them the
highest accolades from coast to coast. It has also won them millions of
viewers on the Food Network. Simply put, the Neelys are all about good
food and good times. In this, their eagerly awaited debut cookbook, the
Neelys share the delicious food they have been cooking up for years
both at home and in their restaurants.
Pat and Gina hail from families with a boundless love of cooking and
bedrock traditions of sharing meals. At the Neelys’, mealtime
is family time, and that means no stinting on “the
sauce.” Indeed, that’s one of the Neely secrets:
the liberal application of barbeque sauce to almost
anything—spaghetti, nachos, salad, you name it. Of course,
there are other secrets as well, and you will find them all in the
pages of Down Home with the Neelys, along with more than 120
mouthwatering recipes.
Here are the tried-and-true southern recipes that have been passed down
from one Neely generation to the next, including many of their
signature dishes, such as Barbeque Deviled Eggs, Florida Coast Pickled
Shrimp, Pat’s Wings of Fire, Gina’s Collard Greens,
Grandma Jean’s Potato Salad, Nana’s Southern Gumbo,
Memphis-sized Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Slaw, Get Yo’ Man
Chicken, and Sock-It-to-Me Cake. Certainly, no self-respecting
southerner would dream of offering a meal to a guest without a proper
drink, so Pat and Gina have included some of their favorite libations
here, too.
The Neelys work, laugh, love, and play harder than any family
you’ll ever meet. Their love for good food is infectious, and
in Down Home with the Neelys, they bring their heavenly inspired
cooking down to earth for all to share.
