Good Lookin’ Cookin’ by Dolly Parton and Rachel Parton George — a New York Times bestseller. You’re invited to pull up a chair for a year of meals, family stories, and Southern comfort food from Dolly and her sister (and favorite cook), Rachel.
“Hey, good lookin’ — what ya got cookin’?” That’s what Dolly sings whenever she walks into Rachel’s kitchen. In this warm, crowd-pleasing cookbook, the sisters share more than 80 beloved recipes and twelve multi-course menus for celebrations all year long — New Year’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and more.
You’ll find American classics and Parton family favorites such as Country Ham and Biscuits, Barbecue Spare Ribs, Family Favorite Meatloaf, Slaw of Many Colors, Mac and Cheese, Watermelon Fruit Salad, and Strawberry Shortcake with a “Dolly Dollop.” Along the way, Dolly and Rachel share hosting tips, kitchen traditions, and the stories behind the dishes that have brought their family together for generations.
Filled with photographs of the sisters cooking and entertaining throughout the year, Good Lookin’ Cookin’ is as much a family keepsake as it is a cookbook. With their trademark warmth and humor, Dolly and Rachel remind you that cooking doesn’t have to be serious — it should be fun.
