If you’ve seen Brenda Gantt’s Facebook videos or enjoyed getting to know her through her recipes that have been featured in the pages of Taste of the South magazine, you’re going to love her upcoming cookbook, Brenda Gantt’s It’s Gonna Be Good Y’all.
Brenda first captured our hearts in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, when from her home kitchen in Andalusia, Alabama, she kept us entertained and educated while cooking up Southern favorites.
Through her signature brand of heartwarming recipes and encouraging words of wisdom, Brenda amassed a following of devotees who tuned in week after week to learn the art of Southern cooking and to listen to her stories about faith, family, and food.
Her first cookbook will be available this fall and will be filled to the brim with more than 100 recipes for her tried-and-true, good old-fashioned Southern cooking, helpful tips and tricks, personal stories, and signature dishes. A Southern glossary will help those new to Southern cooking learn the lingo of the area’s cuisine.
Recipes include classic Southern mains, like Chicken & Dumplings, Country-Fried Steak, and Meat Loaf, and regional desserts, like Pineapple Cake, South Alabama Sweet Cake, and more. It wouldn’t be a Southern cookbook without a full list of sides with everything from Fried Creamed Corn to Big Mama’s Macaroni & Cheese. Recipes for dips, breads, and casseroles abound and are sure to leave readers hungry for more.
Her love for her nearest and dearest and cooking classic Southern fare from the heart will shine through each page, so head to brendaganttbook.com and preorder it today.

Miss Brenda, I ordered and today received a copy of your book IT’S GONNA BE GOOD YALL.I ordered the book for my dearest friend, Patsy Bishop, age 82. I have just read the book cover to cover and have laughed and mostly cried. I have got to have a copy of your book!!! Could I possibly purchase one from your stash? If not, I shall wait until the next printing.
Needless to say. I love the book! It hit me in the heart!
Thank you for writing it.

Cannot wait for this ccokbook. I read cookbooks like I read books. I love them. I believe my Mom and Aunt Wanda would have loved to sit in your kitchen and have a talk over a cup of hot coffee and a biscuit. Love You Brenda…
