  • The Local Palate Magazine Recipes Issue 2023

    The Local Palate Magazine | Recipes 2023

     "The Local Palate is always trying to strike a balance between achievable and aspirational. To begin with, the chefs who graciously share their recipes with us are true artists, and we admit (and enjoy) the complexity of adapting a recipe designed for a professional kitchen into one designed for a home kitchen. Then, too, we know our readers will love a challenge just like we do - trying a new dish, learning a new technique, discovering a new ingredient."  - Emily Havener: Managing Editor of The Local Palate Magazine

  • The Local Palate Magazine | Winter 2023

    The Local Palate Magazine | Winter 2023

    A tradition I’ll be borrowing for a big holiday meal is dueling turkeys. Chef Steven Satterfield of Miller Union in Atlanta goes head-to-head with his brother-in-law to prepare two turkeys for their crowd of nearly 20 each Thanksgiving. One smoked, one deep fried—both brilliant since they’re done outdoors, leaving the oven free for everything else. Speaking of big meals, I loved learning about writer and cookbook author Yvette Jemison’s annual tamalada gathering. She breaks down the process for us in “Assembling Tradition.” And because it’s the holidays, there’s bound to be leftovers. I talked to Joe Kindred, of his eponymous restaurant in Davidson, North Carolina, about a scrumptious way to put leftover turkey to work in a sugo that goes over gnocchi. And for just general winter coziness, there’s a fantastic shiitake mushroom spoonbread recipe from chef William Dissen’s new cookbook.   There are endless ways to fill your plate inside this winter issue—here’s hoping it adds plenty of good cheer to your holiday table.

    The Local Palate Magazine | Road Trips 2023

    "This issue is dedicated to my fellow carto- and bibliophiles, the ones still poring over pocketed maps and guidebooks. More than visual aids, the stories that flow through these pages share excellent and exact stopping points for meandering road trips across the South - and also help you see these places from a new perspective."  Erin Byers Murray - Editor in Chief of The Local Palate Magazine   

  • The Local Palate Magazine Fall 2023 Issue Cover

    The Local Palate Magazine | Fall 2023

    "Here in the Southeast, which has both its own burgeoning wine regions and a growing wine culture thanks to focused restaurants and wine shops, women from all backgrounds are now driving the conversation around wine. In this issue, we asked 25 of them to share their expertise on all things wine, from how it's grown to how it's served and how to order, shop, and taste like a pro."  - Erin Byers Murray, Editor in Chief of The Local Palate

  • The Local Palate Magazine Insider's Guide to Charleston 2023

    The Local Palate Magazine | Charleston Insider's Guide 2023

    "In our annual magazine dedicated to Charleston food, drink, and fun, we’ve organized our restaurant listings alphabetically into New and Noteworthy and Tried and True, so you can see what’s opened in roughly the last year or seek out an established spot you haven’t tried before. We’ve also decided to bring the magazine formerly known as Tableaux fully under the Local Palate umbrella as our first city guide issue that will give you insider’s recommendations for what to eat, drink, and do in Charleston’s many neighborhoods." Emily Havener - Managing Editor of The Local Palate Magazine

  • The Local Palate Magazine Summer 2023 Issue Cover

    The Local Palate Magazine | Summer 2023

    "It’s time to shake up the sides for your next barbecue feast. We reached out to a clutch of up-and-coming pitmasters around the South to see what they’re plating alongside ribs and pulled pork these days—and the results go far beyond your basic mac and cheese. Think smoked gouda grits with roasted peppers and onions, “cool ranch” tater tots, and smoked brisket dirty rice. They might be sides—or they might just steal the show."  - Erin Byers Murray, Editor in Chief

    The Local Palate Magazine | Spring Issue 2022

    Editor's Letter from 2022's Spring Issue of the Local Palate magazine Toward the end of 2021, I found myself poring through the cookbook Getaway by the accomplished and beloved Seattle chef Renee Erickson. A few weeks earlier, she’d been in Nashville, cooking recipes from the book at Henrietta Red, one of my favorite spots. The night was transportive—an evening bright and glowing, filled with bites that took us on the journeys Erickson writes about in her book. The conversation at my table revolved around wanderlust. In 2022, we decided would go to far-off places, experience life-changing adventures, and travel well and intentionally. Cue the season of spring road trips. The years since Covid 19 have made all of our worlds feel smaller and more confined. When I did travel, I went to drive-able destinations where safety and protection remained the priority (including places like Gulf Shores, Alabama, and Cashiers, North Carolina). Reading through this issue, I’m filled with the same jolt of excitement of the possibility to get whisked away. It’s time to return to the road and visit the Southern cities I’ve missed these past years. And, what better way to plot out our destination than with a cheat sheet from a local? From Raleigh to Houston and spots in between, we asked chefs, including Cheetie Kumar and Dawn Burrell, to share their recommendations for what to eat and do in their hometowns.  Speaking of eating on the road, I wish I’d been a fly on the wall for Samantha Fore’s road trip through Eastern Kentucky with her friend Patrick Hallahan. Or, have hit the docks early alongside Jacob Hollifield, our assistant editor, as he traced the work of a handful of colorful stone crabbers who set off from Clearwater, Florida, to bring the desirable, yet fleeting catch to an insatiable audience each season. If travel is still off the table, I recommend chef Adrienne Cheatham’s recipes for dressed-up Southern dishes, from her new book Sunday Best to brighten the air a bit. And a cocktail recipe from Fritai in New Orleans will whisk you off to a Caribbean beach. Should that fail, Mason Hereford’s book Turkey and the Wolf: Flavor Trippin’ in New Orleans brings the mad-fun chef’s specific flavor of New Orleans straight to you—just take care to buckle up for the ride first. —Erin Byers Murray, editor in chief
