A Sneak Peek at "The Southern Slow Cooker" Cookbook

Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash with Molasses Glaze from The Southern Slow Cooker

So, the final edits for The Southern Slow Cooker: Big-Flavor, Low-Fuss Recipes for Comfort Food Classics are nearly done and a release date for the book is set for August 20, 2013. I'm excited to report that you can now pre-order the book for a reduced price on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Overstock, to name a few. It seems this book thing is really happening!

Now that I have a little breathing room from writing, editing, testing, writing, editing and testing again, I thought I'd give you guys a little preview of where all of this hard work is headed. In addition to 60-plus Southern-inspired slow cooker recipes, I've added some bonus ones, from homemade biscuits and relishes to second day meals (as in what to do with all of those leftovers kinda thing) along with beer, wine and cocktail pairings (with recipes kindly donated by professional mixologists). 

All in all, I think the book is pretty darned fun, and I really hope you'll like it. In the meantime, I've compiled a few photos that I snapped with my iPhone (I am an admitted Instagram junkie) while recipe testing for the book to whet your appetite a bit. Stay tuned for more updates and announcements as they come.

Happy slow cooking everyone,

Kendra
