How could anyone give this a thumbs down!!!!!! Louisiana

[@lindarobinson2299]

Thank you for your southern delicious meal and hospitality! Jesus is Lord!👏

[@GenerousLife]

We cook our grits, then whip in an egg, cheese, onion and garlic. Sometime chop up cooked bacon in the mixture then bake. Yummy!

[@k.c.8535]

Thank you Matthew for serving your country, keeping me free, and allowing me to say what I want to say to whom I want to say it, without getting my head cut off. And we know this is still happening in some countries. God Bless You and may he keep you safe.

She just whipped up a full southern breakfast FROM SCRATCH with TWO KINDS of gravy in under 40 minutes! Y'all can't say a dang thing about a good ol' southern woman!

[@dn5582]

This is as my mother who is heaven did it. I can almost taste her home cooking again watching your videos. Pear preserves and all. Love your channel!

[@EastSider48215]

I like butter and salt on grits.

[@stevelogan5475]

@ EastSider, me also & real butter not margarine, i use unsalted butter & i guess you do also as you add salt, better control of the saltiness, try some fresh cracked black pepper also, i do, it is good, God bless

Me too!

Thats how I eat them! Yum!! Butter and salt!!

I agree...no sugar. Butter, s&p

Yep I was thinking they need to turn in their Southern cards!! lol

[@rosemarquinez1355]

One of the things I appreciate and love about your channel is that your viewers are made to feel like they are in your kitchen. There are nuances that we pick up that following a recipe won't provide. Such as starting meat, then biscuits, then grits...cleaning as you go...consistency of batters and mixes...how you hold the bowles...utensils picked and how to use them...I believe your channel is a true Teaching channel. I used to cook, a lot, and then a healthier change took place. And yes, healthier recipes do call for specific items and can require a special trip. Your channel let's me cook with simple ingredients that I have on hand. My childhood was very humble and I was taught at an early age to cook...your channel has reignited my enjoyment of kitchen creations. Just so u know, I am baking my 4th Oatmeal Cake to take to family and that Millionaire Pie has been requested. So Thank you for being you and preserving this southern art.

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Thank you Rose, that is what I keep trying to tell people. You have to watch, not just look at a recipe, to learn to cook. Glad you are making the recipes!

[@loveinautumn3978]

Everything looks so good and whether or not to use salt and pepper or sugar is a personal preference. There is no right or wrong way! People need to respect that everybody has different taste.

[@MyMason100]

As we do !

[@deansurratt7404]

I do feel that sugar shouldn't be put in grits until everyone has had a chance to fix them to their liking. Better yet, when u have company, don't add sugar & let each one add sugar or salt & butter & cheese to your own liking!

[@sherrywilliams409]

@@deansurratt7404 I agree. With company over you don’t know how they want theirs made. So make them plain and the ones that want sugar can add it at the table, then cheese and butter and so on. Once you’ve added sugar it’s too late if all don’t like sugar. Merry Christmas to all and thanks to Tammy for sharing your recipes especially Christmas breakfast!

It’s a bit late to wish you a Merry Christmas but I will anyway. I’m visiting family in Akron, Oh and took the train from Spokane, Wash. for the holidays. Enjoyed your putting together a southern breakfast. Though I prefer a few differences is ways of making a classic breakfast, (cause I cook the way my momma did on the farm in Idaho), it’s amazing how many similarities there are. Have a blessed new year!😜💕

[@joanmarie6456]

Merry Christmas 🎄 thank you so much for sharing. I almost feel like I had a normal Christmas watching that. I used to cook for seven people when the kids were all young.

In the early 1970s my husband and I were stationed in California with the Air Force. We are from Alabama. We couldn't get decent flour or cornmeal. My mother would mail it to me and the postage was more than the cost of the flour and cornmeal. It was worth it because we were sick of eating bricks.
