The thirteen-episode season also features Trisha's lighter take on favorite Southern dishes, game-day party food and a nostalgic "Barbie Q" with Trisha's sister Beth.
"Trisha invites viewers not only into her kitchen this season, she also takes them on the road to visit places that hold special memories for her," said Bob Tuschman, General Manager and Senior Vice President, Food Network. "Her passion for food and music, devotion to her family and friends and love for the South are front and center in Trisha's Southern Kitchen, and it's a joy to watch."
In the premiere episode, Trisha is being honored with the ASCAP Voice of
Music Award and she starts the day eating light with a Peanut Butter and Banana Breakfast Smoothie, then heads to a wardrobe fitting with a Whipped Sweet Potatoes snack. During lunch, she gets hair and makeup ready while preparing a Chicken Salad with Homemade Herbed Crackers. After the awards ceremony, Trisha indulges in a decadent Chicken Salad, Avocado and Cheddar Panini and a quick Chocolate Cake in a Mug for dessert. In the following episode airing January 9th, Trisha takes a day trip to
Memphis in honor of Elvis Presley. With her friend Julie, she visits Graceland, Sun Studio and makes a Banana Pancake Sandwich filled with Peanut Butter Maple Syrup spread to pay homage to the king.

Trisha Yearwood possesses one of the most powerful voices in music and has built an empire by graciously standing her ground and fighting triumphantly. Like Trisha herself, her twelfth album "PrizeFighter: Hit After Hit," is the complete package, featuring ten of her career-defining hits and six new songs sung so deftly, they call to mind floating butterflies and stinging bees. In fact, the bob-and-weave between classics and new songs mirrors her footwork each night on stage alongside Garth Brooks, as part of their history-making tour. This platinum-selling, multiple Grammy, CMA and ACM Award-winning recording artist is the epitome of Southern charm…and a C.E.O. to boot. In the past year, the lifestyle maven unveiled her own cookware line, partnered with Klaussner Home Furnishings to launch her own furniture collection, and published her third New York Times Bestselling cookbook, "Trisha's Table."
Trisha's Southern Kitchen is produced by Magical Elves.
