Sho'nuff Southern: Dolly Parton's Shrimp & Grits (Ep 84)

The Bros say goodbye to Dolly Parton the only way they know how. This week: Dolly Parton’s Shrimp & Grits. Sharp white cheddar grits, seasoned shrimp, cherry tomatoes, scallions, and a scratch-made spicy sauce, all in her classic pink box. The story: Dolly's food empire built up in stages. Duncan Hines baking mixes in 2022, then a full licensing deal with Conagra in January 2024 that brought Dolly to the freezer aisle. Homestyle Meatloaf, Chicken & Dumplings, Country Fried Steak, plus desserts like Peach Cobbler and a chocolate pie the Bros were decidedly less than kind to in a previous episode. Plus: Max's backyard garden, pommes de terre, and key lime pie. A wave of recalls. Nine to Five and Steel Magnolias, Dolly's Imagination Library, and a fierce debate over whether it's normal to watch your microwave the entire time it's running. In the closing segment: two New England boys take on "How Southern Are You?," a quiz from It's a Southern Thing. Will Darren and Max be Sho'nuff Southern, or will they be exposed as the carpetbaggers they are?
