The filmmaker is joined by SC folklorist, Saddler Taylor in this “road film” that travels a spontaneous investigating-and-recording-as-you-go journey through the farm roads and by-ways of four rural counties where homecooking and barbecue can be found cooked by folk heritage culinary food artisans cooking ancestral recipes using methods passed on to them by mothers cooking over wood-stoves and fathers cooking in BBQ pits dug in the ground. These cooks are part of the living folklife in agrarian South Carolina, and this entertaining and spontaneous film takes you into a portion of the 48 eateries that qualified to be listed as folk heritage dining establishments in Region III of the South Carolina Heritage corridor. Music is by folk heritage musicians in the region.

Folklorist, Saddler Taylor and Stan Woodward, in designing a field research method for locating and authenticating eateries in Region III of the SC Heritage Corridor that qualify as Official South Carolina Folk Heritage Foodways sites, discovered 48 such dining establishments. With the help of grants from the SC Humanities Council and the SC Arts Commission, a brochure with hours of operation, foodways on the menus, and locations of all of these special "dining museums of Southern cooking" was produced along with a map leading visitors to each site. Copies of these maps come with the purchase of each DVD.
