Explore delectable recipes such as Blueberry Cobbler with a Cornmeal Sugar Cookie Crust.
In the second season of this Peabody Award-winning series, A CHEF'S LIFE, Vivian Howard, proprietor of Chef and the Farmer restaurant, explores Southern cuisine with a chef’s modern sensibilities. As Vivian and husband Ben Knight introduce viewers to the farmers and cooks of the American South, they also celebrate their twins’ third birthday and open a second restaurant, the Boiler Room.
"Blueberries And Boiling Over" - After a year recovering from a restaurant fire and re-opening Chef and the Farmer, Vivian and Ben open a burger/oyster bar called the Boiler Room. Vivian boils over with the stress of staffing adjustments, testing new menu concepts and the task of putting 500 pounds of blueberries to good use.
She dons a hairnet and bubbles with excitement at the sight of her blueberry BBQ sauce hitting the assembly line. The staff of Chef and the Farmer finally lets off some steam with a growler cocktail and a blueberry BBQ water park extravaganza.
