About the Lee Bros.
Siblings Matt and Ted grew up in Charleston, South Carolina. When they
left to attend colleges in the Northeast, they so missed the foods of
their hometown that they founded
The Lee Bros. Boiled Peanuts Catalogue,
a mail-order catalogue for southern pantry staples like stone-ground
grits, fig preserves, and, of course, boiled peanuts. When an editor of
a travel magazine asked them to write a story about road-tripping their
home state in search of great food, they embarked on a second career as
food and travel journalists. They currently write food stories for
Travel + Leisure,
Food & Wine,
GQ,
The New York Times Dining Section,
Sunday Magazine and
Book Review sections, and are the wine columnists
for
Martha Stewart Living.
