Join us for a full day of Southern comfort food and heartfelt stories from the heart of the community. We are heading to Walmart to grab ingredients for a massive hot dog feast featuring a secret chili recipe you won’t believe. From grocery shopping to the final bite, this is a look at what makes our mountain community so special.
In this video, we take you through the entire process of making the perfect deep fried hotdog. You will see how we prep our deep fried hot dogs, whip up a creamy homemade coleslaw, and bake a decadent almond cake topped with Snickers frosting. We also share a unique hot dog chili recipe that uses just a few simple ingredients to create a flavor that everyone loves. It is a greasy, delicious, and totally unhealthy treat that is perfect for a gathering with friends.
Beyond the kitchen, we sit down for an intimate conversation with Charles Cox. He shares his fascinating life story, from building computers at age seven to his 34 year marriage that started with an elopement on Halloween. Charles opens up about his health journey, his impressive 200 pound weight loss, and why he loves the mountain life. It is a story of resilience, family, and the power of a good meal shared with friends.
