On May 18, 2017, as I reflected on my battle with cancer, I realized I hadn’t taught my daughters how to cook. Concerned that if the cancer returned, I wouldn’t leave them with essential kitchen skills, I decided to record my favorite recipes on video.
I jumped out of my recliner, filmed my first tutorial that day, and posted it on Facebook the next day. The overwhelming response led me to create a Facebook page, a website, and a YouTube channel. Encouraged by my viewers, my husband and I compiled a cookbook, which I hope brings joy to both new and experienced cooks. Thank you for supporting Collard Valley Cooks!
Many people wonder if Collard Valley is real; it is located in northwest Georgia, where the hills rise toward the Appalachian Mountains. The name originates from Chief Collard, a Cherokee leader forced into exile during the Trail of Tears in the 1830s. Nearby Cedartown was established as a mill town in the early 1900s.
This rural area has maintained its agricultural roots. Tammy’s grandparents, Albert and Lucille Benefield, embodied this lifestyle, focusing on cooking with simple ingredients. We hope you enjoy this simple rural cooking style, reflecting traditions passed down through family and community, similar to other “Collard Valleys” nationwide.

Happy Mother's Day Tammy❤
Hope you had a beautiful Mother’s Day. This looks so delicious…it’s been a long time since I had this. Love ya! ❤❤
Rib eyes make the best steak sandwiches, I usually can get a couple nice ribeye steaks in the 50% of rack, perfectly good, it’s the only thing I use for steak sandwiches. I do buy the shaved like you have when I can’t get some. Now I’m craving one.
Yum yum. I want to try this. 🙂
