After graduating from college, Brown worked at a child placement agency before moving to Newark, New Jersey to work for Big Brothers Big Sisters.[13] Her then boyfriend submitted an audition tape of Brown to Food Network.[13] Food Network told Brown that they loved her personality, but that her cooking skills needed some work.[13] Brown sold everything to move back to Charleston, and she started the New Gullah Supper Club in 2015, a pop-up traveling supper club featuring traditional Gullah dishes "with a contemporary twist" at events often featuring Gullah singers or storytellers.[6] The New Gullah Supper Club traveled from state to state paying tribute to recipes passed down from Brown’s mother and grandmother.[6]

In addition to the New Gullah Supper Club, Brown continued her TV career. Brown made her Food Network debut on BBQ Blitz in 2015.[2] She was invited by Food Network to be on Beat Bobby Flay and to host Cupcake Championship before being offered her own show, Delicious Miss Brown.[6] Brown signed an exclusive contract with Food Network in 2021, which included her being the host of The Great Soul Food Cook-Off.[2][14] Brown has also appeared on Cooks vs Cons, Farmhouse Rules, Family Food Showdown, Spring Baking Championship, Kids Baking Championship Thanksgiving, Chopped Junior, and Kids BBQ Championship.[15][11][16] In 2025, Brown joined Duff Goldman as a co-host on season 13 of Kids Baking Championship, and replaced the former co-host Valerie Bertinelli.[17]

Her first cookbook The Way Home: A Celebration of Sea Islands Food and Family was published in October 2022.[2][8] Brown chose to name her cookbook The Way Home because she felt as though she found her way home after moving back to her hometown, Charleston, from New Jersey.[8] The Way Home made it to number 6 on the New York Times Best Seller List.[13]

On April 21, 2025, Brown opened Kardea Brown’s Southern Kitchen in the Charleston Airport.[9] This is Brown’s first restaurant, and it is inspired by flavors and recipes from Gullah cuisine.[9]

In 2023, Brown launched her frozen food line called Delicious Eats.[25] Dishes include chicken fettuccine alfredo, chicken pot pie, country kitchen friend chicken, and sausage and grits. All of the food is inspired by her passion for Gullah cuisine.[25] The dishes are available at Walmarts around the United States.[25]
