Southern Food Blogs - Top 50

Cindy Cullen from CulinaryArtsCollege.org sent me an e-mail today to let me know my bbq blog was chosen as one of 50 Best Southern Food Blogs.  (Thanks Cindy.)  Numbers 1, 5, and 32 on the list are food blogs that I read often.  There are a lot of blogs on the list written by formally trained professional chefs and some are designed by professional webmasters (I am neither), but all the bloggers share an enjoyment of food and cooking. 

The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country GirlI'm pretty humbled that anyone would think to include my 'lil ole blog' on a food blog list that includes Ree Drummond's Pioneer Woman. In 2009 and 2010 her blog won the coveted Bloggie Award as the "Weblog of the Year" and other awards for writing and overall design.  The blog caters to women, but I'm not ashamed to say that I do occasionally read it. I steer away from the more womanly aspects of the blog - especially the "boy meets girl" posts and the Confessions section - but her Photography and Cooking sections are tremendous. If you're a blogger, food or otherwise, you can learn alot from ThePioneerWoman.com.  And for anyone looking for a gift idea for a daughter, wife, or mother, Pioneer Woman Cooks is a sure fire future favorite.
