Mother's Best Flour was a lively and engaging radio show featuring Hank Williams and the Drifting Cowboys performing country, instrumental, and gospel songs. Aimed at a rural and largely female audience, the show promoted biscuit and cake flour, self-rising cornmeal, and livestock feed products. The informal banter and warm camaraderie between Hank, announcer Louie Buck, and the Mother's Best Music Makers offered listeners a glimpse into the real personality of Hank Williams, contrary to the sad and forlorn image often portrayed in biographies. The show was characterized by its casual tone and fun atmosphere, giving off the impression of a group of friends enjoying coffee and biscuits together in the morning.

Broadcast on WSM in Nashville, Tennessee from late 1950 to late 1951, Mother's Best Flour featured a variety of hymns, gospel music, and current hits sung by Hank Williams during his prime career years. Despite being paid $100 a week for the show, Hank was unguarded and relaxed throughout the series, allowing listeners to truly get to know him as a person. The show had a total of 15-minute broadcasts, which at times were pre-recorded due to Hank's touring schedule. These radio shows are considered some of Hank Williams' most popular work and are still sought after in his extensive catalogue.
