Spillers' specialties include fruit cobbler, Key Lime cake By PAULINE LEWIS Staff Writer Jerry Spillers is the Houston Times-Journal's Cook of the Week. An employee at Robins AF Base, Spillers and his wife, Beverly, live off Hwy 341 N on the old E.H. Holland Farm, along Holland Road. Spillers is a native of Roberta and a graduate of Crawford Co. High School and his wife, a nurse, is a native of Macon. Spillers served four years in the Air Force (1955-1959), being sta tioned at Lackland AFB, San Antonio, Texas for training, Robins AF Base for six months prior to Sheppard AFB, Wichita Falls, Washington for one year, McCord AFB at Tacoma, Washington, Anchorage, Alaska and Westover, Massachusetts. After military service, he went into the motel business with his dad and later into the automobile business (1959 to 1985). He began work in one of the hangars at Robins AF Base, bought the Holland Farm and started farm ing, specializing in fruits and veg etables. He plans to cut back on his veg etables arid concentrate more on his fruit trees and berry vines. He has plums and three varieties of nec tarines, two with white meat and one with red meat. He says, "Once you eat a nectarine cobbler, you won't ever want to eat another peach cobbler!" The season for the red variety is over, but the white ones are in full season (1 July - 1 November) and are delicious. Spillers says that he does lots of cooking (most of it on the grill on a screened porch during the summer months, so as not to heat up the kitchen). He gives three or four barbecues ev ery year, barbecues on Mr. Holland's 70-year-old pit, and has a special little house in the yard with tables and screens so that his guests can eat in comfort. He also has dove shoots the first days of the open season, and invites some of his friends to the shoots. He and his dad go fishing in his dad's pond and he also goes to Coco Beach, Fla. to catch white perch. He cooks pics, cakes, casseroles, meats and vegetables, makes squash pickles, uses Italian dressing and vinegar for some of his meats, and his Key Lime Cake is a specialty.
