Great Alabama Southern Cooking in the California Desert
Southern barbecue is noted as a craft developed over and passed down through many generations. The meat is cooked over slow burning coals or fragrant woods such as hickory or pecan. Add some baked and fried sides and you've got what we Southerners call soul food. But authentic barbecue soul food doesn't have to exist only in the South. Big Dan moved all the way from Alabama to bring your favorite soul food dishes right here to the Palm Springs area.
Want some breaded fried okra, candied yams, collard greens or real home made hush puppies?
You can find them at Big Mama's Soul Food, along with other down south staples such as grilled chicken, slow roasted pulled pork and fried catfish - fresh from Uniontown, Alabama. Or how about some home made chicken gumbo and peach cobbler? Hungry yet? Scroll down to see the menu, or better yet, stop by and have a meal with us if you are in town.
