What is your signature dish?

I actually don’t know what it would be. Probably a simple as biscuits.! my big mama taught me long ago nobody could cook like big mama!!

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Well, my inspiration came from my big mama who lived in Brent, Alabama and I love going to her house and should have a big wooden bread bowl full of flour. Should take that thing out. Should take a handful of fat and put in there. Stir it around with her hands put in a little buttermilk, then take her hands and shape the biscuits with their hands put them in this big cast-iron and put them in the oven.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I live in a beautiful old home that is almost 100 years old. It desperately needs a lot done to it, but especially a new roof.
