Cook the Book: 'The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook'

Posted by Ed Levine, July 23, 2007

What do you get when two smart-as-hell Southerners write a cookbook that reflects their roots and their fierce intelligence? The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook: Stories and Recipes for Southerners and Would-be Southerners. Apparently it's what a lot of folks have been waiting for, because Matt and Ted Lee's book has become a best-seller and has won just about every cookbook award there is, including the rare doubleheader "Cookbook of the Year" designation from both the James Beard Foundation and the IACP (International Association of Cookbook Professionals). And these guys don't just write. They sell quintessential southern foodstuffs, everything from moon pies to country ham, in their Boiled Peanuts Catalogue. Thanks to the good people at Norton, we're giving away ten (10) copies of the Lee Bros. book.

For a chance to win, let us know what your favorite Southern dish is in the comments section until 9 p.m. ET Friday. The usual Serious Eats contest rules apply.
