Harley's Home Cookin'


Last month I had the privilege of attending a cooking class presented by Chef Joe Randall at the PUBLIX Apron's Cooking School. Chef Randall founded his Cooking School in Savannah Georgia in the year 2000. In his home-style kitchen you learn the secrets of authentic Low Country cooking.

Chef Randall, in his 42 years of cooking, has been seen on HGTV, The Food Channel "the Best of Ethnic Eateries" and "The Best of Prix Fixe", Turner South "3-Day Weekend in Savannah", and many national and local television shows. He will tell you that everyone needs to have a little taste of South in their mouth.

It was a great experience to watch him prepare a complete dinner and then enjoy eating the meal and savering the delicious flavors. Next time I'm in Savannah I plan to attend his Cooking School. His web site is www.chefjoerandall.com and his Email is info@chefjoerandall.com. Here is one of his great recipes.
