    Dinner Impossible New Host

    ...eventually dilutes the charm and uniqueness of these personalities to the point we are able to parrot the hackneyed soundbites before they leave their mouths.......this in no way suggests that shows like AB’s Good Eats,...

    Lykn Chicken

    That’s a great point DD. I remember on Feasting on Asphalt Alton mentioned that he was at a hot dog stand. What do the make?? Hot dogs!! No gumbo, no roti, no this or that. It was true to it’s self. If you’ve...

    Broken arm--easy food to cook?

    The last episode of Feasting on Asphalt shows Alton Brown making meatloaf with one arm in a sling after his motorcycle spill. He was able to use fingers on that arm to stabilize items like a cutting board. Still it took him a lot...

    Current: Good Eats Dolce Vita (c/ David Rocco) Lawson, Oliver, Bayless are watchable — but not faves. Feasting on Asphalt if it counts. Past: Taste (David Rosengarten) Ming Tsai Hot Tamales The Urban Peasant (which was never a...

    The Dean boys.

    , but I always half-way expect to see a keg hiding in the background somewhere. Stripped down, I think their show and Feasting on Asphalt are conceptually very similar, and while I am an Alton Brown fan, I think the Deen boys...

    Who the Hell is Alton Brown???

    shines when he does downhome food and interacts with townspeople; I really enjoy every segment of Feasting on Asphalt, both journeys. Funny, hungry, touching, evocative. I’m hoping it won’t be too one-note, and...

    Most frightening food you've seen lately?

    Goodness, it looks like a mutant marine “balut” egg. I saw an old episode of Alton Brown’s "Feasting on Asphalt - Episode 4:California or Bust" and one of the stops in AZ had a bunch of Navajo grill foods being...

    Using non-food items for food-related uses?

    At a highway paving project in South Carolina in 1976, I observed a laborer shovel out a shiny lump from a corner of an asphalt spreader at the start of lunch. It was a chicken wrapped in a bundle of aluminum foil. I was told he...

    Professionally Trained/Experienced vs. Non-Professional Celebrity Chefs

    their stuff like Alton Brown on Good Eats and I can appreciate the entertainment value in a show like Feasting on Asphalt but I have no interest in picking up recipes from "celebrities."

    Method/recipes for cooking while traveling by car?

    If you look at the big truck stops (Flying J, etc.) they sell some cookers that plug into your lighter – AB’s Feasting on Asphalt mentioned them I think. The one’s I’ve seen are not big, but big enough for...

    In search of the best AND cheapest...

    Just outside of St. Louis is Fast Eddie’s Bon Air. Great food, ice cold beer, stupid cheap. Over 21 only. Depending on when you leave, you might catch the "Feasting on Asphalt" episode that includes a stop....

    What should I eat to get a "Taste of St. Louis"?

    For what it’s worth, I saw Alton Brown’s St. Louis segment of his Feasting on Asphalt series. Rather than partaking of the usual items, including those listed by the always authoritative and reliable bobzemuda, below,...

    Diners, Drive-ins, Dives, and Disgusting

    Not even Alton Brown’s openly trashed some of the places he’s visited that seem to have sketchy cooking (though he’s certainly noted his distaste for certain foods he’s come across) on his Feasting on...
