The Cooking Channel Heats Up With A New Season of MAN FIRE FOOD Premiering May 30

Man Fire Food, one of Cooking Channel's top original series, returns as Chef Roger Mooking continues his search for the most innovative and outrageous ways people across the country cook with fire. Whether it is smoked, grilled or barbecued, these one-of-a-kind dishes are smoking hot and sizzle the taste buds. The 13 new episodes kick off Wednesday, May 30th at 9:00pm ET/6:00pm PT with flaming bold flavors.

In the series premiere, Roger follows the smoke signals to San Antonio where he finds the best roadside barbeque at The Box Street Social food truck. Roger helps build a special metal rig designed to hang meats and cook over live fire and hot coals. They roast racks of ribs, whole chickens and even whole pumpkins which are smashed open and topped with goat cheese, arugula and olive oil. Then over in Santa Fe he visits a food truck that is putting a mouthwatering twist on central Texas-style BBQ. At Smokin D's BBQ Fusion, Roger starts by loading up the smoker with brisket, the main ingredient in their famous Brisket Mac Dilla, a mind-blowing mac and cheese-filled quesadilla, and learns how to make the Smoke Dog, a beef jalapeno sausage wrapped in bacon and topped pico de gallo, avocado, pineapple and habanero mayo. If these dishes don't make you want to pull over, then nothing will!
