So much more than a singer, songwriter, and actress, Dolly Parton is also a philanthropist, self-made businesswoman, and home cook. We’re huge fans of Dolly here at Allrecipes, so we obviously couldn’t resist when the Queen of Country added kitchen products to her repertoire.

In many ways, Dolly’s kitchen gear and food products mirror her music: thoughtful, accessible, comforting—and dare we say, iconic. From a lovely collection of durable cast iron cookware to a feel-good cookbook filled with family recipes, these are our favorite Dolly Parton kitchen products.

Recipes include Country Ham and Biscuits, Family Favorite Meatloaf, Slaw of Many Colors, Mac and Cheese, and Strawberry Shortcake.

Dolly Parton Chardonnay

Light, refreshing, and smooth, Dolly Parton Chardonnay is perfect for sipping on the front porch with friends and family. Gently aged in oak, the wine features notes of white peach and lemon with hints of pineapple. The label is adorned with the butterflies so often associated with Dolly, and the wine itself pairs beautifully with grilled fish, chicken, and even shellfish. Best of all, you can get it for under $15.

The Details: 12.4% ABV; produced in California; white wine

Lodge 8-Inch Dolly Parton Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Stamped Skillet

$30
$27 at Amazon

Lodge is already one of our favorite kitchen brands, especially when it comes to budget-conscious Dutch ovens and cast iron skillets. Known for its incredible value, the durable cookware is designed to last for generations with proper care. The Dolly Parton collection is no exception.

This skillet will set you back under $30 and features the same quality and naturally seasoned cooking surface as Lodge’s other classic cookware. We love the 8-inch size since it’s perfect for sides, heating up leftovers, and frying eggs—but it performs especially well with Lodge’s cast iron skillet cornbread mixes. Printed on the back is a pun on her classic “Jolene” lyrics that’s sure to get a laugh out of any Dolly fan.

The Details: 10.25 inches; 5.34 pounds; hand wash only

Lodge 4.5-Inch Dolly Parton Mini Rockstar Cast Iron Guitar Skillet

$25
$22 at Amazon

Dolly’s collaboration with Lodge doesn’t stop at full-sized skillets. This small 4.5-inch pan is simply adorable with a guitar-shaped design and printed Dolly signature inside. We love it for a single portion of brownies or homemade cornbread, but it would also make a cute serving dish for a party. Or, use the built-in hanging loop to display it on the kitchen wall for a bit of Dolly-themed decor.

The Details: 4.5 inches; 1.36 pounds; hand wash only

Duncan Hines Dolly Parton’s Fabulously Fudgy Brownie Mix

$6 at Amazon

Duncan Hines has collaborated with Dolly for several years now, but the beloved baking mix brand really upped its game by releasing six new flavors in January 2024. The line started with two cake mixes and two flavored frostings but has since grown to include even more Southern favorites like Sweet Cornbread & Muffin Mix and the super-popular Fabulously Fudgy Brownie Mix.

The baked brownies come out delightfully moist, and the box includes a packet of fudge to help intensify the chocolatey flavor. Even better, they’re incredibly simple to make. All you need is 1 egg, 1/2 cup of melted butter, 3 tablespoons of milk, and your favorite brownie pan. 

The Details: Includes 2-pack of 17.6-ounce brownie mix; each box makes about 16 servings
