TrueSouth zigs and zags across the region, from Kentucky to Tennessee, from Mississippi to Alabama to Georgia. To make TrueSouth, the crew plans in the winter and films in the spring. All year long, though, they scout, in search of great restaurants and great stories, because there’s always something new, and there’s always something old that’s new to them. TrueSouth invites viewers to join the scout trip as the crew feasts across the belly of the South, plotting for seasons six and seven while filming season five. On the bus, they make U-turns and wrong turns and crank Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors. Curiosity called them to exit 17 on I-20 in the piney woods of Alabama, near the town of Livingston, where an Indian restaurant in a long-haul truck stop shares an off-ramp with a steakhouse that bakes perfect caramel cakes.
