First time I done saw del and the boys was in a church in Escondido.
seems to b that the crafty ol' preacher man who ran the place had convinced del to b born again some years ago at a recording session by using the simple reasoning that even ol' scratch was acquainted with the son of God but acceptin' him into your heart as lord and savior was a different story.
apparently that folksy logic was more than mr. Del could deny and he converted on the spot.
funny thing is after some years transpirin' that preacher man started feeling a little uneasy bout the whole notion of denominational religerizin.
Hear tell he's still preachin' the word and such but that he ain't so hung up bout most of the particulars no more.
Now it's plain to anyone with working taste buds fortunate enough to consume Mrs McCoury's biscuits that she's using some type of secret ingredient u just don't find at any old Waffle House, Cracker Barrel or run of the mill eaterin' establishment.
some say it's lard, others, a smidgen of pure Tennessee honey.
truth b told there's a heapin helpin of good ol' fashion southren hospitality in every bite as pretty and welcomin' as a mandolin being strummed on a Sunday morning. (After church of course )
Well I'm sure by now some of y'all r reckonin' y u ain't heard bout these marvelous biscuits till now if they're such the Tennessee bee's knees.
reason fir that is rumoured to b that the outrageous quality of these biscuits is bit of a bone of contention round the ol' McCoury homestead.
Even though that marital tussle has long been smoothed over like a dab of dapper Dan applied to a stubborn cowlick, the story goes something like this:
u see, the biscuits were widely circulated at the very first Del fest and they created such a stir among the attendees that some folks dared to suggest that they were responsible for more of the grinnin' than any of the top notch pickin' that took place at the festival.
He'd deny it when questioned, but I guess that nicked papa Del's pride some and they became more of a family secret after that.
don't u worry none about mr and Mrs Del's relations though.
those 2 were getting along better than 2 squirrels in a maple tree in no time at all.

There's a reason they don't serve them at funerals. It happened once at Aunt Idamays funeral. Everybody had some biscuits and everybody forgot about Idamay. They had to come back the next day to close the casket and bury her; may God rest her soul.
