Slap the dog and spit in the fire! It's the Fifth Annual Southern Supper!
This auction item is for those of you unafraid to go big—and by “big” we mean “big with dairy, sugar, salt, hog, greens, grease, corn in its solid and liquid forms, and George Jones memorial tribute toasts.” Win this item, younguns, and experience what the expression "full as a tick" truly means.
What you (and three of your lucky guests) get: a butter-soaked, deep-fried, four-skillet minimum extravaganza that includes three or four appetizers (or "knick-knacks," as they are called by some Tennessee grannies), two meats, four veggies (yes, mac and cheese is a vegetable), biscuits, cornbread, at least three desserts, various southern beverages, and a big ol’ passel o' party favors to take home to mamaw and papaw.
You might also get: an extended explanation of the superiority of vinegar-based versus molasses-based barbecue sauces; a biscuit-making demo; a clogging demo; a mini-lecture on proper southern pronunciation (quit sayin' "fire" when the Lord knows it's "far"); the chance to wear Nana Range's bonnet or Marissa's Derby Princess crown (or both at once); and/or the chance to distinguish yourself, and win a southern prize (like a gigantic bottle of Karo syrup or a Porter Wagoner record), in the watermelon-seed spitting contest, the boiled-peanut eating contest, and/or the long-distance grits toss.
