As the story goes, Fayro, TX is about to disappear from the map since the Smart Mart and rendering plant closed. Enter the Futrelle sisters, bent on saving the town. With the help of the rest of Fayro's unique group of citizens, Frankie, Twink, Honey Raye and Rhonda Lynn pull out all the stops to lure a salsa factory to their town. With wit, charm and a good dose of "truth embellishment", the characters in Southern Hospitality are a testament to Southern strength and ingenuity, with a whole lot of hilarity to spice up the action.
