Chef Kevin Belton is ready to hit the trail, the culinary trail that is, in a new 26-part cooking series from WYES-TV. In his fourth public television venture, Chef Belton will explore the rich and multi-faceted foodways of Louisiana. KEVIN BELTON’S COOKIN’ LOUISIANA premieres Saturday, July 3, 2021 at 9:30 a.m. on WYES-TV, wyes.org/live and on the WYES and PBS apps. The tasty tour of the Pelican State’s best flavors and dishes will also air on a majority of public television stations nationwide. Viewers outside of the WYES broadcast area should contact their local station for airdates and times. This series is distributed by American Public Television.

The new series made a foray into our area, which will be featured on several shows. The Toledo Bend Lake Country episode will air on September 4, an episode about Natchitoches and Cane River follows on September 11, while the Sportsman’s Paradise episode is September 25.

The award-winning chef will visit locations across the state for a look at the authentic food traditions of Louisiana cuisine. The road trip will start in Lafourche Parish, an area southwest of New Orleans where the chef’s French speaking family settled and where the catch of the day is sourced from the 106 miles of bayou that weave through the parish.
