Synopsis by Madeline Cavalieri

The Frugal Gourmet, with chef Jeff Smith, is an amazingly thorough video collection with over 80 episodes that include food recipes from around the world. In each episode, Smith demonstrates several simple but important recipes. Backyard Barbecue includes a lecture on the complete history of barbecue, and the Frugal Gourmet barbecues all the classics: Chuck Steak, Chicken, Veggies, Pork, and Beef. Smith discusses the theological and anthropological histories of the dishes he prepares. He brings humor and wide-ranging knowledge into the kitchen.
