In this exciting new series, join America’s Test Kitchen chef Bryan Roof as he travels across the country to explore iconic regional flavors, meet local culinary legends, and uncover the secret techniques behind some of America’s hidden-gem dishes and restaurants.

Bryan takes viewers on a rich culinary journey deep into authentic regional traditions while showcasing some off-the-beaten-path hidden gems. From smoky pitmaster secrets to coastal seafood treasures, he uncovers the captivating stories, history, and science behind local institutions, family-run restaurants, and a variety of cuisines.

It’s an adventure that goes beyond just eating great food—it’s about discovering the love and care and history behind these recipes.

Episode 1: South Texas BBQ 

Bryan travels through south Texas for Southern barbecue where smoked meats meet Mexican-American traditions. One chef pays homage to his family with a Mexican Sunday breakfast, while a pitmaster fans the flames of his family’s 65-year-old restaurant and his outdoor kitchen for Mexican home cooking.

Episode 3: Coastal Massachusetts Seafood

Bryan heads to the docks to discover the science of the perfect beachside clambake, regional New England seafood chowders, and a local restaurant that has been a fixture in one town for over 100 years.

Episode 7: Oregon’s Wild Bounty

Bryan travels to the Oregon coast to cook with local legends who believe less is more when it comes to Pacific Northwest ingredients, including a couple who rely on coals, flames, and locally harvested sea salt to make deeply flavorful slow-cooked food. At Cous Bay in North Bend, sand, stakes, and a mountain of firewood transform a pit into an outdoor kitchen for a salmon celebration where an Indigenous chief connects the community through cooking.
