Miami Southern cooking
Where the South meets the 305.
Liberty City kitchens, Sunday plates, and seafood boils on the patio. Southern soul food cooked the Miami way — heavy on the seasoning, hot on the honey, and served with a side of attitude.
Honey Hot Wings
Sticky, glossy, On Everything. The one that broke the internet.
Seafood Boil in a Bag
Shrimp, crab, corn and sausage the way the 305 does Sunday.
Braised Oxtails
Fall-apart tender, gravy over rice. Miami Caribbean roots meet the South.
Five-Cheese Baked Mac
Shred your own cheese. The side that started fights.
Slow-Simmered Collards
Smoked turkey, pot liquor you'll drink. Medicine.
Peach Cobbler
Butter is a food group. Serve it hot with a scoop.

Southern classics. Miami heat.
From the wings that started it all to the sides that started fights. The way Grandma made them in the South, the way Mama made them in Liberty City, and the way Yuntie makes them now — with a little extra attitude and a lot of seasoning.

Yuntie says…
Words to cook by.
“Butter is a food group. I did not make the rules of the universe.
“Shred your own cheese. The bag stuff got sawdust on it.
“Season like somebody's watching.
“Wet. Not damp. Not moist. WET.
“Lay down. What you do after the mac and cheese. Mandatory.
“Order two.

Yeah It's Me‼️
Tiallondra “Yuntie” Tia Kemp
Welcome to my kitchen, baby.
Tiallondra “Yuntie” Tia Kemp is an entrepreneur, social media personality, comedian, and entertainer known for her bold personality, humor, and authentic voice. Raised in Miami's Liberty City as the eldest of six children, Tia's strong connection to family and her roots has always been at the heart of who she is.
Some of her fondest memories began in the kitchen with her late grandmother, who taught her how to make pork & beans and ground beef. Those simple dishes became more than recipes — they became cherished memories and a lasting connection to her grandmother's love, wisdom, and traditions.
Today, Tia continues to celebrate family, culture, and authenticity through her growing career in entertainment. This cookbook is a reflection of those roots, bringing together the flavors, memories, and love that make food more than a meal — it makes it family.
