Program Description

THE OPEN FLAME EPISODE 30

Join us as we travel across the globe to visit chefs who are redefining the art of grilling. In Panzano, Italy, one of the world’s greatest butchers shows us how a perfectly prepared steak begins and ends with the dry heat of an open flame. Next we’ll travel to Morocco to experience an ancient method of cooking that uses the intense heat of the fire in a communal bathhouse. Then, at a Fourth of July barbecue in Massachusetts, a great chef stays up all night to demonstrate an entire range of grilling traditions and techniques. And in the Gourmet kitchen, we’re sharing tips for easy grilling in your own backyard.
