Raichlen Grills St. Louis
Sat, Apr 16, 2022 27 mins
When it comes to barbecue, St. Louis isn't yet as famous as Kansas City or Memphis, but the Gateway City is experiencing a live fire renaissance. They're famous for plate-burying pork steaks and eponymous spareribs (trimmed, rubbed, and slow-smoked over applewood). And get ready for a Project Fire first: St. Louis toasted ravioli with homemade marinara sauce.
Episode 2
Rolled, Stuffed, and Grilled

Ever since humankind first put food to fire, the world's grill cultures have wrapped and rolled flavorful ingredients. Steven explores two South American grilled classics-a stuffed chicken breast from Uruguay called pamplona, and a colorful stuffed beef roll Argentineans know as matambre. Plus, a Project Fire Mystery Box recipe that may involve a crustacean.

Whether you're hosting guests or seeking a reason to get out of bed, this show amps up your breakfast game by firing up the grill. First, a spectacular breakfast pizza.

Scroll through the images on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, and you'll find grilled and smoked dishes of astonishing ingenuity. In the spirit of this new style of barbecue, we've invited three of my favorite influencers to grill with me - Derek Wolf from Over the Fire Cooking, Scott Thomas from Grillin' Fools, and Susie Bulloch from Hey Grill Hey.
Episode 5
Wagyu Demystified
Sat, May 14, 2022 24 mins
Wagyu, "Japanese cow" literally, was once an obscure cattle breed from Japan. Today, it's on restaurant menus and in butcher shops around the world. Get ready for a sumptuous Japanese A5 Rib-Eye with sesame salt and grilled rice cakes, followed by wagyu steak tomahawks with fire-roasted marrow. Then feast your eyes on wagyu smash burgers with parmesan crisps.
Episode 6
Water Meets Fire
Sat, May 21, 2022 24 mins
For many, barbecue means meat. But you may be surprised to learn that one of the earliest recorded barbecues featured fish wrapped in grape leaves. Today Steven begins with saffron-scented Catalan shrimp kebabs, followed by trout Mexican style with a sizzling garlic cilantro sauce. Then there's a Mystery Box that will astonish you as much as it surprised Steven.
Episode 7
Spits and Skewers
Sat, May 28, 2022 24 mins
Skewering and spit-roasting meat rank among the world's oldest and most universal grilling methods. Forty thousand years ago, Neanderthals roasted hunks of meat over a campfire. Today, Steven spit roasts a pork loin stuffed with onions followed by an Indian rotisserie leg of lamb perfumed with saffron. He then skewers the unknown ingredient inside the Mystery Box.
Episode 8
Barbecue Takes Flight
Sat, Jun 4, 2022 24 mins
What's America's most popular meat? It's Poultry. Americans consume more than 112 pounds per person each year. Today Steven prepares an astonishing array of grilled poultry from brandy brined rotisserie chicken to duck legs flame roasted Peking-style. And with a special guest a Project Fire first: turkey "ribs"-found in St. Louis, and virtually nowhere else.
Episode 9
Extreme Grilling
Sat, Jun 11, 2022 24 mins
Steven has always enjoyed showing extreme grilling techniques that, though unconventional, deliver unabashedly delectable results, such as his Caveman T-bones or salmon on a shovel. Taking your grilling to the next level, that tradition continues with Lomo al Trapo with Fiery Colombian Salsa, Grilled Brussels Sprout Stalks with Curry Butter, and a Project Fire Mystery box.
Episode 10
The Mediterranean Grill
Sat, Jun 18, 2022 24 mins
Physicians have long extolled the virtues of the Mediterranean diet. Today the healthy foods and vibrant flavors of the Mediterranean hit the grill when Steven grills Sicilian grilled artichokes and branzino stuffed with fennel stalks. Then there's Greek grilled baby lamb chops with ember roasted potatoes prepared by friend and host of My Greek Table, Diane Kochilas.
Episode 11
Sandwiches Hit the Grill
Sat, Jun 25, 2022 24 mins
It's a simple formula: bread + protein + condiment, but it adds up to a triple decker of pleasure. In today's show, the sandwich hits the grill. From a glorious BLT made with home cured and smoked bacon, to pan bagnat-a magisterial grilled tuna sandwich inspired by the French Cote d'Azur. And then it's a sandwich for dessert in a Project Fire mystery box.
Episode 12
