Lycaon Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) From the Food Network website: Pop culture, comedy, and plain good eating: Host Alton Brown explores the origins of ingredients, decodes culinary customs and presents food and equipment trends. Punctuated by unusual interludes, simple preparations and unconventional discussions, he'll bring you food in its finest and funniest form. One of the recipes he's had on his show that I'm going to try out sometime: Praline BaconIngredients * 1 pound thick cut bacon * 2 1/2 ounces light brown sugar, about 6 tablespoons * 1 1/2 ounces pecan halves Directions Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a half sheet pan with aluminum foil. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on a cooling rack, and set it in the prepared sheet pan. Bake until the bacon browns and the fat is rendered and bubbly. About 30 to 35 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the brown sugar and pecans in a small food processor. Pulse about 15 times or until the pecans are finely chopped. Remove the bacon from the oven, sprinkle with the brown sugar mixture, and pat down to adhere. Return to the oven a bake until the bacon is crisp, about 10 minutes. Cool on the rack for 10 minutes before serving. Edited April 12, 2010 by Lycaon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaterpillarScheme Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I fucking LOVE Good Eats. His show is amazing and funny. He treats cooking like chemistry. His episode on pancakes was my favorite. Though he put an awful lot of work into making those pancakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aartemys Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Ben and I watch Alton most every night...his is probably my favorite show on Food Network... I loved his episode on Peas...and all the "special" guests crack me up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dag Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 His show is definitely the best cooking show ever. There really isn't anyone who compares on the Food Network. Lissette has made countless recipes using the DVDs of his shows. Most cooking shows are a little boring, but he explains the science of everything and he uses puppets . . . puppets!

Aartemys Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 The latest winner of Food Network Star was mentored by him during the competition. It seemed like he was grooming him to be his successor since his show was cancelled last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dag Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Good Eats was cancelled !?!?! I just read via Wikipedia that Alton "retired" the show. Anyhow, I like that Justin kid. Lissette and I watched the whole season of the Next Food Network Star and we voted for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaon Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Damn! So there should be a series box set sometime, yes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dag Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I have boxes of shows on DVD. I think that if they do release them, it will be a massive amount of boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelogan Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The name of this program was too long and unwieldy. It should have been called Albro Geats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
