Episode 1106: Love of Live Fire Cooking, Rick Bayless "Mexico One Plate at a Time"

In Yucatán, cooking over fire is a way of life. Rick meets up with Chef Juan Pablo Loza, who ignites the wood-fire grill for octopus with local pineapple. At Zama Beach Club in Isla Mujeres, Cancun Chef Federico Lopez fires up his seaside grill to make tikin xic, a Yucatecan grilled fish dish smothered with achiote, the region’s hallmark spice paste. And Chef Eric Werner shows off his all wood-fire kitchen at Hartwood in Tulum. Forever obsessed with cooking over fire, Rick brings us to Lena Brava, his new all wood-fire restaurant in Chicago, to make poc chuc, a traditional citrusy grilled spicy pork dish, then to his backyard for spatchcocked chicken al oregano worthy of a summertime fiesta.

    I wish Rick would do an episode all in Spanish. Just put subtitles. People will still watch.

    wow... the closer you get to the fire the hotter it is. I will try to remember that. LOL! I still love your show Rick.

    Great timing! I just got a free fire pit, and a new grate, and it's getting the maiden voyage tonight. Thanks for your knowledge, enthusiasm, and sharing. I'm all fired-up (pun intended).

    An all woodfire kitchen. Never thought about that concept, but it really really is beautiful. I have a new one on the bucket list, thanks.
