Justin Wilson is dead for quite a while now. He was a self made "entertainer". The only thing authentic about him was his love of wine.

He "learned" his accent and used it to make a pretty decent living. I don't know about any of his food, but watching him cooking on his show, it would have to be pretty decent.

Check out chef john folse's website www.jfolse.com I think you will be pleased with the number of receipes available and they are down to earth things that almost anyone could prepare and would enjoy and not some hoity toity BS that noone would stick a fork in.

Sorry to hear the old guy is dead. It doesn't surprise me that he was more entertainer than chef... used a lot of ketchup in his recipes! :-) Don't know how authentic his accent was, but he was fun to watch. Never tried any of his recipes.

I haven't really had any good cajun food. I don't like to try to make something unless I have a good idea where to aim! Emeril's at Universal Studios, Orlando, has received rave reviews. They serve creole dishes, which I know is different than cajun, but maybe in the ballpark. I've wanted to go there, but when we're at Universal, we're usually with kids, and I'd need to take out a separate mortgage to feed my crew there!

Thanks for the site tip, c-j! I can see I'm going to be spending quite a bit of time there (FIRST coherent instructions for seasoning cast iron that I've ever read!).
