  • Summary

  • In the South, food and music go hand in hand. They define much of what we think of as Southern culture, and they say a lot about our past, our present, and our future. Each week, Sid Evans, Editor in Chief of Southern Living, sits down with musicians, chefs, and other Southern icons to hear the stories of how they grew up, what inspires them, and why they feel connected to the region. Through honest conversations, Sid explores childhood memories, the family meals they still think about, and the intersection of food and music in their lives. Always surprising, always engaging, Biscuits & Jam is a celebration of the South—and the people who are moving it forward every day. New episodes every Tuesday.

  • The Red Clay Strays Were Made for This Moment

    The Red Clay Strays Were Made for This Moment
    Sep 3 2024
    Sid talks to a couple of guys from Alabama who are founding members of one of the hottest young bands in the country—the Red Clay Strays. Brandon Coleman, the charismatic lead singer, spent his youth running around with siblings and cousins on a family compound outside of Turnerville, just north of Mobile. Meanwhile, Drew Nix, who plays guitar and writes a lot of the songs, grew up further north, in Birmingham. The two met through a mutual friend and eventually formed a country rock group that’s made quite a name for itself, especially after their 2022 single, “Wondering Why.” Now the band is out with a new album called Made By These Moments, and they also have a song on the soundtrack for Twisters, one of the biggest movies of the past summer. Sid talks to the old friends and bandmates about their songwriting process, Brandon’s recent Alabama wedding, plus the role of faith in their lives and their music.

  • Anne Byrn’s Baking Masterpiece

    Anne Byrn’s Baking Masterpiece
    Aug 27 2024
    Anne Byrn was born and raised in Nashville and, though she calls Tennessee home, her career has taken her all across the South as she’s written about the people who define this region’s extraordinary cuisine. For 15 years, she was the food editor at the Atlanta Journal Constitution, where she interviewed legends like Julia Child and Nathalie Dupree, and you may also know her as the Cake Mix Doctor, a name she coined as the author of a series of bestselling cookbooks that demystify baking. Now she has a new cookbook called Baking in the American South: 200 Recipes and Their Untold Stories, which is undoubtedly her most ambitious to date. Sid talks to Anne about some of her favorite recipes from the book, why there’s so much debate around the right way to make cornbread, what she learned about cooking from her Mom, and how President Lyndon Johnson’s cook helped change the course of history.

  • John T Edge’s Search for the True South

    John T Edge’s Search for the True South
    Aug 20 2024
    John T Edge grew up in Clinton, Georgia, raised in a Confederate general’s house that introduced him early on to the complicated legacy of the South. His childhood was complicated, too, and not always happy, but his mother and father shared a curiosity about food and cooking that never left him. For more than 20 years, John T headed up the Southern Foodways Alliance at the University of Mississippi, shining a light on the diverse food cultures of the South, and he’s written as thoughtfully about the people of this region as anyone I know. His 2017 book The Potlikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South, is a must read. And for the last several years, he’s also hosted True South, a television series on the SEC Network that explores the small towns, back roads, family restaurants, and unsung heroes who make the South such a dynamic place. Sid talks to John T about the 7th season of the show, some of his favorite behind-the-scenes moments, and a South Carolina family connection that surprised them both.
