About BROOKE BURKS

Brooke Burks is the recipe developer, I.T. department, and head dishwasher at The Buttered Home. She grew up in the best Southern kitchens of her Momma, Grandmother, and Aunt Peggy, developing a love of scratch made cooking at the early age of 6. She started The Buttered Home in 2018 as a way to preserve her love of scratch made Southern cooking and encourage people to find joy in the kitchen for the first time or the 500th time.
