Justin Wilson (of PBS cooking show fame) and my dad grew up together. Most people outside Louisiana know him best for his "Cajun comedy" and his "cooking show". He was not a chef and although he "cooked Cajun" on PBS for many years, at home, he always conferred with his wife on every recipe. Even out in the yard, at the "Cajun microwave", when he was preparing a Cochon de Lait you'd hear him yell, "Mon sha, how much red peppa I put in da rub fo do pig?"... He was an excellent "story teller" and many times, when I was a teen and after we married, we'd sit around drinking Dixie beer, listening to his stories, usually with greasy fingers from "pickin' da cracklin's off da pig" while he turned the spit, making sure that pig never burned.
