Smokey John's pulls in 300 to 350 people per day. What makes it so successful today is that we don't have to use scraps. We buy high-quality cuts and season it in the old way. So put your misplaced pride in the Confederate flag and the supposed glories of Southern heritage aside. Soul food is the final monument to Dixie, a living memorial to the culinary genius of poor Southerners, black and white.
Soul food is good old Southern cooking, with a side of irony.
