Tulsa’s best known cook, Nettie McBirney, was a nationally known culinary problemsolver who certainly was a cut above the rest as “Aunt Chick” in her Tulsa World cooking column. In her private life she was Mrs. Sam P. McBirney, a banker’s wife. Nettie however certainly upset her private life when it was decided she could do a cooking column under the nom de plume of “Aunt Chick.” Without telling her husband, she began the column at a time when Oklahoma was still suffering from the Great Depression. One morning at the breakfast table, Sam opened the paper to her first column which was signed “Aunt Chick,” Nettie’s pet name. It was his first inkling that she had taken a job. “That crazy woman will start a run on the bank is people think she has to work!” he shouted, bounding up the stairs three at a time. Aunt Chick was an international figure for her culinary inventions and made a splash in the field by organizing teams of cooks trained to demonstrate cooking. Such teams were employed at department stores like Macy’s in NYC and in many major cities across the nation. Her Christmas cutters, launched in 1948, were an instant hit, making her famous and gaining her international recognition. Find out more at www.auntchicks.com.
