Seen regularly as the Copper Chef Eric's love for cooking, teaching and "culinary inventing" is as approachable as his energetic personality. His straightforward, no-nonsense approach to cooking has helped millions of people be successful in the kitchen with fresh ideas on food that range from everyday meals to comfort-food creations and special occasion masterpieces. With nearly 1,000,000 cookbooks sold, Eric is excited to launch Lovin' Your Air Fryer, a new series of books that will surpass readers and get them asking, "You can make THAT in an air fryer?" Then we’ll chat with Jon Henderson the Executive Producer of Good Time Tricycle Productions. He will discuss an inaugural event that Bourre_ac Bourré is kicking off to celebrate the warm weather by hosting the Chili Knockout & Spicy Food Fest at The Orange Loop outdoor arena OLA on S. New York Avenue on Saturday, May 21 between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. The event is presented by Good Time Tricycle-famous for its The Downbeach Seafood Festival and The Atlantic City Beer and Music Festivals. This newest Fest is dedicated to exploring all things flavorful, hot, and spicy. The interactive chili cook off will feature 20 plus regional restaurants competing for the best chili recipe at the Jersey shore awarded by festival attendees. Restaurants will also offer a variety of five-alarm dishes, a Hot Sauce and Artists’ Village, a pepper eating contest, signature cocktails, local brews to wash it all down, and much more including live music, professional fire breathers and local artists. There will be a $5,000 Winner-Take-All Cash Prize available to the restaurant with the most votes. First prize takes home $2,500, while the additional $2,500 will be donated to the charity of the winner’s choice. Sounds like a great time to Do Atlantic City. Last but not least we’ll be joined by 2022 Philly Chef Conference hosted by Drexel University - Food and Hospitality Management #Chef participant Suzanne Barr, Chef and author of ‘My Ackee Tree: A Chef's Memoir of Finding Home in the Kitchen’ from Penguin Random House Canada. Suzanne Barr is one of Canada’s most respected chefs with a flair for fresh comfort food and a passion for local community, food security, and advocacy for BIPOC and LGBTQ2+ communities. She was the owner of the popular restaurant Saturday Dinette, head chef of True True Diner, and is the founder of the Dinettes Program, which trains young, marginalized women in the kitchen. My Ackee Tree tells the story of a woman who is always on the move, always seeking; who battles the stereotypes of being a Black female cook to become a culinary star in an industry beset by dated practices and landlords with too much power. From the ackee tree in front of her childhood home, through New York City, Atlanta, Hawaii, the Hamptons, and France, Suzanne takes us on her unpredictable journey, and at every turn, she finds light and comfort in the kitchen. At the 2022 Philly Chef Conference she is joined by other industry professionals such as Brett Anderson, Erik Bruner-Yang, Louisa Chu, Daniel Giusti, Jeff Gordinier, Rachel Gurjar, Jenn Harris, Joseph Hernandez, Shanika Y. Hillocks, Aaron Hutcherson, Eric Kim, Simon Kim, Kat Kinsman, Omar Mamoon, Helen Rosner, Kevin Sintumuang, Audarshia Townsend, Stephanie Willis, and many others. The conference is an annual event designed to convene the regional food community and to showcase the latest food and beverage ideas and techniques through educational lectures, panel discussions and demonstrations. It brings together the best chefs, food producers and personalities and links established food and hospitality professionals with aspiring students and young industry professionals at Drexel University. You say you STILL NEED MORE!!! Don’t forget we still have our regular weekly segments from author, Courier-Post nightlife correspondent and The New York Times recognized blogger John Howard-Fusco for foodie news of the week, Chef Barbie Marshall who is a Chef Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen Season 10 finalist and has appeared on Season 17 of FOX Hell’s Kitchen #AllStars as well named Pennsylvania’s most influential chef by Cooking Light will delight us with her observation of the week, highly acclaimed and respected Vegan Chef Christina Martin will delight with her ‘Healthy Bite’ of week giving nourishing and wholesome advice, and a joke of the week from legendary joke teller Jackie “The Joke Man” Martling of The Howard Stern Show fame.
