The family behind Ole Smoky moonshine shares their favorite recipes, from moonshine chili to traditional Southern breads, creative cocktails, and more.
When a change in Tennessee law finally made it legal to sell moonshine, Jessi and Joe Baker drew on their family’s rich history to start Ole Smokey Distillery. Ole Smoky moonshine is made with love for the Appalachian Mountains—and the home-style Southern food that goes with it.
In Shining, Jessi Baker shares the history of Tennessee moonshining, as well as some of her family’s favorite recipes. While some recipes feature moonshine in creative ways, like Moonshine Eggnog or the Moonshine Bloody Mary, not all the recipes are boozy. Jessi shares classic Southern favorites like Skillet Cornbread and Wild Blackberry Cobbler, as well as salads, soups, steaks, and more.
