24:37This show gives grilled and smoked vegetables their due; tandoori cauliflower with coriander mint chutney, squash gratin with habanero chiles, and Mexican pit-roasted lamb.
24:37The U.S. is often described as a global melting pot. We focus on three grilled dishes with international roots - shrimp cocktail, chipotle ribs, and an unexpected planet barbecue ‘banana’ split.
24:37The Gulf Coast has some of the most vibrant seafood and distinctive grilling in the Americas. From grilled oysters with charred corn salsa to a grill-top shrimp boil, we’re fishing for compliments.

24:37Experience the Texas Trinity hot off the grill: smoked and grilled rib-eye steaks, grilled quail, and a sizzling sandwich prepared by San Antonio master chef, Jason Dady.
24:37Elsewhere in Latin America, grill masters make a virtue of simplicity, think salt only grilled steaks. But Mexicans builds layers of flavour – introducing three spectacular grill specialities.

24:36The meeting of East and West has profoundly influenced how we cook and eat. This show takes fusion cuisine to the grill. On the menu? 'Good Luck Cluck' (barbecued chicken with Thai curry), Lone Star Kalbi, and a grilled Pork and Cactus Salad bursting with Thai flavours.
24:37Argentina. The very name summons visions of rustic gaucho asados and sophisticated grill restaurants. Today, you'll learn to prepare meat from a genuine asador, Argentinean grill master.
