“Hey, good lookin’—what ya got cookin’?”

This is what Dolly would sing to her sister Rachel Parton George whenever she walked into her kitchen. It’s what you do when a love for good music and good food runs in the family.

In Good Lookin’ Cookin’, Dolly and Rachel shared tips for hosting events all year long, including twelve multi-course menus of cherished recipes for New Year’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and more. You’ll learn how much butter or whipped cream went into a “Dolly Dollop,” what condiment was almost always on the table at Parton family meals, and what special dish Rachel made at Dolly’s request every year for her birthday. Recipes include American classics such as Country Ham and Biscuits, Barbecue Spare Ribs, Family Favorite Meatloaf, Slaw of Many Colors, Watermelon Fruit Salad, Mac and Cheese, and Strawberry Shortcake.

Filled with more than 80 delicious dishes as well as photographs of Dolly and Rachel cooking and hosting all year long, Good Lookin’ Cookin’ is a treasured cookbook that makes you feel like part of the Parton family. With their trademark warmth and sisterly love, Dolly and Rachel reminded us that cooking doesn’t need to be serious—it should be fun! And always good lookin’!
