Five generous helpings of the food of the southern states of America, served nightly by Russell Davies. 1: The Whole Hog
Nothing is more characteristic of the American South than its cooking, and nothing is more basic to that cooking than the pig. Dry ribs in Memphis, chopped pork barbecue and country ham in North Carolina, and spicy boudin in Louisiana, where the Boudin King can claim that "hog lard killed my grandfather". Producer John Goudie
