Big Flavor. Big Personality. Unforgettable Southern Cuisine

On screen and in the kitchen, Jason Santos is known for two things: his smack-you-in-the-mouthflavored dishes and his larger-than-life personality. Buttermilk & Bourbon, the name of Jason's wildly popular restaurant and his standout cookbook, showcases incredible recipes inspired by the exciting flavors and culture of New Orleans.

Jason has gathered his best Southern-inspired recipes--the ones that restaurant-goers write about impassioned letters and the ones even his line cooks can't resist--and laid them bare for you.

Make his signature dishes at home like Literally the Best Fried Chicken Wings in the History of Chicken and Flamin' Hot Cheeto Mac & Cheese. Binge on Smoked Gouda Cornbread or go all in on New Orleans BBQ Shrimp with Jalape o Grits. Finish with a signature cocktail like Voodoo on the Bayou and desserts like Fresh Fried Beignets.

What you hold in your hands is a collection of epic recipes and electric commentary like no other.
