Last time I was back home in Mississippi, I filled up some water straight from my family’s well and carried it back with me to Atlanta. I’ve always believed food tastes a little different when it’s made with water from home. Maybe it’s the minerals in that Mississippi ground. Maybe it’s nostalgia. Maybe it’s generations of Southern cooking talking. Whatever it is, there’s something in that water.

So when the craving hit, I pulled out the family recipe, brought out that Mississippi well water, and got in the kitchen.

This time, I believe I nailed it.

I started with a proper hen from a specialty market… the kind with enough flavor and richness to actually stand up in a dish like this. I built the dressing with a deeply seasoned broth, plenty of herbs, black pepper, a little heat, and all those savory flavors that ought to be in a pan of old-school Southern dressing.

And that steam rolling off the top? That pan had barely cleared the oven before I cut into it. I knew I was supposed to let it rest, but sometimes a man has to handle his business.

First bite told me everything I needed to know.

Rich. Moist. Savory. Herbaceous. A little spicy. Deep chicken flavor running all the way through it, with that golden top giving way to soft, seasoned dressing underneath.

To me, this is Soul food cooking at its best: humble ingredients, serious technique, and generations of flavor in one pan.Consider this my opening course for fall. Cooler weather, football on the television, something good simmering on the stove, and a table full of food that’ll make you loosen your belt before dessert ever shows up.

And I’ll always give credit where it belongs. This recipe comes from my family in Mississippi. I may have refined my own version, but the soul of it belongs to them.

Mississippi raised the recipe.

Atlanta just got the plate.

Now let me go back and get another helping.

Maddox was dedicated back to our Heavenly Father yesterday and our unwavering village showed up, covered baby boy in prayer and surrounded both of our boys with so much love (even though someone was definitely being a three-nager and isn’t even three yet 🫣). It twas a beautiful day 🤍

Happy S I X M O N T H S Maddox! You are the absolute perfect puzzle piece to our caboose. Man, that flew by; feels like we just brought you home. Your gummy grin, belly laugh, strong appetite 🫣, absolute adoration for your big brother, “jumpies” when Dada enters the room and grabbing mommy’s face and hair has filled our lives with SO much joy our hearts are so full.

We 🤍 you oh so much baby boy and it’s bittersweet to see you grow. Why don’t babies keep?! But, I’m so excited to witness you take on the world…your gang cheering you on every step, every milestone.
