Biscuits & Jam

Southern Living

In the South, food and music go hand in hand. They define much of what we think of as Southern culture, and they say a lot about our past, our present, and our future. Each week, Sid Evans, Editor in Chief of Southern Living, sits down with musicians, chefs, and other Southern icons to hear the stories of how they grew up, what inspires them, and why they feel connected to the region. Through honest conversations, Sid explores childhood memories, the family meals they still think about, and the intersection of food and music in their lives. Always surprising, always engaging, Biscuits & Jam is a celebration of the South—and the people who are moving it forward every day. New episodes every Tuesday.

    Susan Tedeschi Has Superpowers

    Susan Tedeschi may have been born and raised in Boston, but she’s forged a deep and lasting connection to Southern culture. She grew up on blues, gospel, and soul music before eventually embarking on a career that brought all those influences together, making her one of the most exciting voices in modern rock and roll. She’s also spent more than 25 years in Jacksonville, Florida, where she and her husband and musical partner, Derek Trucks, have raised a family and built something truly special together. As the Tedeschi Trucks Band, they’ve united Susan’s talents as a singer, songwriter, and musician with Derek’s supernatural abilities on slide guitar. Now, they have a new record out called Future Soul, one of their best to date. Sid and Susan talk about the album, the family dynamic that’s kept their band together for 16 years, and a particularly fun gig they have on the horizon. On Saturday, May 2, Susan and Derek will perform the “Star Spangled Banner” at the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby.

    Maneet Chauhan Has a Lot to Celebrate

In recent years, she’s written two cookbooks and appeared on shows like Chopped, BBQ Brawl, Maneet’s Eats, and Tournament of Champions, where she became the first two-time winner in the show’s history. Sid talks to Maneet about how she honors traditional Indian cuisine while making it modern and accessible, why she sees BBQ as a global language, and how she’s turning her 50th birthday into a year-long celebration.

    George Motz Is Saving the American Hamburger

    George Motz is a self-proclaimed Burger Scholar, as well as an author, filmmaker, and TV host who’s been called the “foremost authority on hamburgers” by The New York Times. George grew up on Long Island, but he has deep family ties to South Carolina on his mother’s side. He spent a lot of time in the Lowcountry as a kid, soaking up the food and culture, which helped shape his lifelong passion for American cuisine. That passion eventually led him to create the 2004 documentary Hamburger America, which he produced, directed, shot, and edited himself. In 2016, he released his first cookbook, The Great American Burger Book, and he also brought his expertise to television as the host of Burger Land on the Travel Channel. And in 2023, George opened Hamburger America, an acclaimed restaurant in New York City where he’s serving some of the best burgers you’ll ever taste. Sid talks to George about the cultural significance of hamburgers, the men and women who make them, and what drives him to preserve and celebrate these American institutions.

    Trisha Yearwood’s Christmas Spirit

    The last time Trisha Yearwood was on the show was back in 2021, when she was here to discuss a cookbook called Trisha’s Kitchen, but this year has been all about music. In 2025, Trisha came out with not one but two new albums, a remarkable burst of energy and creativity. The Mirror, which she released over the summer, was her first album in six years, a personal and passionate collection of songs—all 15 of which she co-wrote—that some have called the best work of her career. Then in November she came out with a holiday record called Christmastime, which she recorded with a full orchestra and followed up with a series of concerts all over the country. Trisha is still cooking up a storm, of course, especially around the holidays. She talked to Sid about some of her longtime Christmas traditions with her husband, Garth Brooks, why they’re always one of the first houses in the neighborhood to put up their lights, and the new holiday song they wrote together, “Merry Christmas, Valentine.” For more info visit: southernliving.com/biscuitsandjam Sid Evans - Editor-in-Chief, Southern Living Krissy Tiglias - GM, Southern Living Lottie Leymarie - Executive Producer Michael Onufrak - Audio Engineer & Editor/Producer Jeremiah Lee McVay - Producer Learn more about your ad choices.
