Appalachian Thanksgiving Recipes and Stories of the Season

Appalachian Thanksgiving recipes include sweet potato casserole and stuffing. Our feature interview is Mary Lynn Snyder originally from Harlan Kentucky. Mary Lynn remembers her mother Ruby's recipes and traditional ways of cooking.

Dee Dee Constantine, retired food writer for the Knoxville News Sentinel has a segment on tips on how to prepare venison roast and venison steak, and she shares a recipe for venison meatloaf.

Fred Sauceman’s Potluck Radio series - we revisit his segment on the annual historic event of turkey herding that used to take place in Hancock County Tennessee.

And I (Amy Campbell) share a story I recorded with my late father, who was an old-fashioned East TN medical doctor. He accumulated a lot of interesting stories in his 60-plus years of practicing medicine, and this story involves a turkey egg.
