Kardea Brown celebrates her Gullah culture and heritage with her friend, Gullah folk singer Quiana Parler from the award-winning band Ranky Tanky. They share a meal inspired by the Sea Islands and their Gullah tradition. Kardea makes Gullah Gumbo with Shrimp and Tomatoes, Traditional Crab Rice and Grilled Okra with Bacon. For something sweet, she puts a spin on a Lowcountry classic with her Charleston Chewy Cheesecake.

Kardea Brown and her friend KJ Kearney like to explore Charleston's food scene together, and KJ has even developed a social media presence based on his outings. Kardea invites KJ over to treat him with her versions of Charleston's best, taking inspiration from the great meals they've shared together. She makes a Panko Fried Pork Chop Sandwich on Grilled Texas Toast, Shaved Green Cabbage Slaw with Shallots and Dijon Vinaigrette, Lima Bean Salad and a special Homemade Banana Pudding.

Kardea Brown invites her lifelong besties over to show them how thankful she is for their friendship in the best way she knows how -- by feeding them! For this Friendsgiving, Kardea is in charge of the all-important turkey and side dishes, and her girlfriends bring dessert and drinks. To start, Kardea serves Deviled Crabs in the shell. Then she makes a Cajun Butter Spatchcock Turkey along with Fried Cabbage with carrots and peppers and Sweet Potato Stuffed Cornbread.
