    Two Indiana Amish Wedding Recipes: Barbecued Chicken and Chicken Dressing Casserole

    Published: Mar 6, 2017 · Updated: Mar 6, 2017 by Kevin Williams | Leave a Comment

    Barbecued chicken like this I saw at an Amish benefit is also popular at Amish weddings.

    By Kevin Williams

    A cookbook that I think would be amazing to write and it would fall into my interest in the anthropological angles of Amish life would be an Amish Wedding Cookbook.  Many Amish weddings have their standard staples, but there are also little twists and traditions found in each community.  You'll find pickled beets at almost any Amish wedding meal, but this chicken dressing casserole, for instance, would be something more unique to the smaller Amish settlements in Indiana.  Both of the recipes below came from Amish weddings in Indiana.
