Cookin' Cheap - 814 - Down Mexico Way

Hailed as the "Best Cookin' Show Ever" in the New York Times!
In celebration of Blue Ridge PBS's 50th anniversary in 2017, we brought back classic episodes of the iconic program, Cookin' Cheap. Watch it on air and online.
The comedy cooking show served up lots laughs to television audiences for 22 years. It was the brainchild of host, Laban Johnson, who teamed up with radio personality Larry Bly to cook up hundreds of recipes and a lot of humor.
The show was recorded live on tape in the studio of Blue Ridge PBS from 1980 to 2002 with occasional episodes being shot on location. ‪@BlueRidgeStreaming‬

So glad you found some more older episodes. It's tough to watch Mr. Johnson in the later episodes.

Thanks. We have very few left to upload... maybe 25 more. We're still looking for some lost episodes.

I will forever love these crazy guys. I well remember the episode where they made children's party stuff like caramel popcorn, burning their hands and suffering in their stupidity. I laughed so hard. I sure hope that episode gets found.

It's available on you tube. It's called fun food for kids.
