Meet the Neelys: Pat and Gina, husband-and-wife team, hosts of their own television show, and proprietors of the celebrated Memphis and Nashville eateries, Neely’s Bar-B-Que.
The Neelys’ down-home approach to cooking has earned them the highest accolades from coast to coast. It has also won them millions of viewers on the Food Network. Simply put, the Neelys are all about good food and good times. In this, their eagerly awaited debut cookbook, the Neelys share the delicious food they have been cooking up for years both at home and in their restaurants.
Pat and Gina hail from families with a boundless love of cooking and bedrock traditions of sharing meals. At the Neelys’, mealtime is family time, and that means no stinting on “the sauce.” Indeed, that’s one of the Neely secrets: the liberal application of barbeque sauce to almost anything—spaghetti, nachos, salad, you name it. Of course, there are other secrets as well, and you will find them all in the pages of Down Home with the Neelys, along with more than 120 mouthwatering recipes.
Here are the tried-and-true southern recipes that have been passed down from one Neely generation to the next, including many of their signature dishes, such as Barbeque Deviled Eggs, Florida Coast Pickled Shrimp, Pat’s Wings of Fire, Gina’s Collard Greens, Grandma Jean’s Potato Salad, Nana’s Southern Gumbo, Memphis-sized Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Slaw, Get Yo’ Man Chicken, and Sock-It-to-Me Cake. Certainly, no self-respecting southerner would dream of offering a meal to a guest without a proper drink, so Pat and Gina have included some of their favorite libations here, too.
The Neelys work, laugh, love, and play harder than any family you’ll ever meet. Their love for good food is infectious, and in Down Home with the Neelys, they bring their heavenly inspired cooking down to earth for all to share.
Patrick and Gina Neely are owners of Neely’s Bar-B-Que in Memphis and Nashville and hosts of the Food Network series Down Home with the Neelys. They have been married since 1994 and live in Memphis with their two daughters (and scores of other kin nearby).

I saw this book advertised on one of the shopping channels priced higher with a higher shipping cost. Since I'd not actually seen the book but saw recipes that I thought looked good, I searched for it on Food Network. While I've not had a chance to thoroughly look at it, I love the stories behind the recipes and the pictures of them throughout the years. I can't wait to start trying some of the recipes, they look delicious!

this couple cooking up a storm on Food Network. They not only make great
food but provide a positive role-model of marriage and family for all of
us. I just love the chemistry between them!!
Love the Neelys
I really like the fact that this book kind of tells the whole store about Pat and Gina and their business. The recipes are full of flavor and easy to prepare. Everyone has always loved everything I made from this book and their show. It's a winner.

I can't wait to try the recipes in this book. I ordered two books and gave one to my son-in-law as he cooks alot outdoors on his grill and smoker. The recipes look delicious and yet seem simple enough for the average chef. I developed a taste for marinated and BBQ foods. Thanks for the fast & speedy delivery.

I like the Neelys and have watched their show. Because of the recipes I've seen them prepare on TV, I decided to buy their book. I don’t usually buy cook books on line, but thought it’s from the Food Network how could I go wrong. Well, I was extremely disappointed to find that there are very few pictures of the recipes but a huge amount of pictures of them and their family. I thought this was a cookbook not an auto-biography. People like to see what the food will look like when it’s done. Or at least I do.

Keep up the good cooking. Next time our family reunion is in Memphis, I am going to come to your restaurant for some good BBQ. Mrs. C

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the stories and the recipes. Gina and Pat seem so down to earth. It comes through in their cookbook. This book will allow me to try some new recipes on my family.

Spent the rest of the evening reading and bringing myself up to date with information about the Neelys and, of course, their "out of sight" recipes. I was amazaed they were willing to enlighten everyone with their original home recipes and techniques. This is one of the best cookbooks I have ever bought and have already tried some of their recipes. I would recommend it to any and everyone. Thank you Gina and Pat, you are the greatest. I am an avid watcher of your tv show.

Before I ordered this cookbook, I would have a pen and paper to write down, if not ALL the recipes, MOST of them. I was a little disappointed to find that their cookbook did not have all the recipes that they do on the show, such as the Chicken and Dumplings, Peach Fritters w/ Orang Glaze, Neely's Egg Benedict on a Pork Croquette. Is it because the shows that are aired within the past couple months are a new season and have not yet been able to form into a cookbook? Will their be a new cookbook coming soon? I still LOVE the Neely's and will purchase their products and refer them to friends and family. Thank you Pat and Gina for all you do! Sincerely, I.A.
