I wish the TV cooking shows were like this again. He use to tell his funny stories that I enjoyed when I was a kid watching him. And I loved to watch him cook. Miss you Justin I guarantee.
Kent Rollins was a buddy of Justin and carries out a lot of his traditions, but on a chuckwagon and outdoor cooking. Give him a look-see and let him know I sent you. Him, his wife, and his pups are great people and critters. Justin was the first for me with his devilled eggs and I still make them exactly the way he did even though I can't find the video anywhere.
Yes--on PBS back in the 1970s and 80s. The shows starring Julia Child and the Galloping Gourmet (Graham Kerr) began a bit before him. His father was the state Agriculture and Forestry Commissioner in Louisiana from 1916-1948, and served in the Louisiana House of Representatives.
@@patevans3709 Yes I was watching Julia and The Galloping Gourmet as well. I was not familiar with Mr. Wilson until I moved to CA in 1980 and picked him up on a local station. Good memories!
"I gare-ron-tee". "On-yon". It's been so long since I've seen him but, when I saw the thumbnail of him, I knew immediately who it was. I remembered the way he said "guarantee" the second he started talking. We used to say it the way he did. Good times.
Such a treasure.....RIP Justin....you are surely missed by those of us that had the privilege to see you cook. Thank goodness for technology so that others coming after us can still benefit from your kowledge.
I used to enjoy watching him when he was on PBS. I love that Justin is using a huge bowl to combine his ingredients. I don’t get why so many chefs/cooks try to mix things up in a bowl that the ingredients barely fit into. I guess it’s a pet peeve of mine. I don’t have a bowl as large as Justin’s, but I keep my old enameled roaster around just to toss ingredients together. I never roast in it anymore, but it’s my go to for things like this macaroni salad. I put the finished salad into smaller containers or serving bowls once it’s done.
Agree 100%! When I find a very, very large bowl, I grab it up, only because I too do not wish to have all of my ingredients barely move because the bowl it too small.
@@YourLifeYourStyleTV oh thanks I thought it was making this Sunday my husband making smoked pork chops I'm trying think something else make with it any idea 😂😂😂😂
@@zilcaparker6089 yes mama. My grandpa will his fresh perk coffee on Sunday mornings we will sit in front TV and watch him. It's like Mr Justin and grandpa were best friends. Beautiful times.
He wasn’t a real Cajun. While Wilson presented himself as Cajun in his act, it is unclear if he had any actual Acadian or French ancestry. His father Harry Wilson was of Welsh descent. Justin Wilson described his mother, the former Olivet Mintern Toadvin (1880-1976), as Cajun, but she has no known ancestors who either were Acadian, lived in the Cajun regions of Louisiana, or emigrated from France. (She did, however, teach Justin how to cook.) Her surname Toadvin derives from a native of Guernsey who immigrated to Maryland circa 1675. The Florida Parishes, where the family lived, were not part of the French or Spanish colonies of Louisiana.
I was planning on making macaroni salad for dinner tonight anyway,. But definitely making it now! I don’t care for olive’s though & don’t have any anyway! So,. Happy Memorial Day
My husband, who has passed on, and I, used to watch Justin faithfully. We were thrilled to go to a cookbook signing at our local Sam’s Club some years ago. Such a wonderful gentleman. If Justin is boiling a pot of crawfish up there in heaven, my husband will be first in line, I guar-oooon-tee ya!!
@@theswampfox9584it's one lb cooked before ya add all the rest of the ingredients too. The end result weighs more than a pound. Besides if ya think about it a pound of cooked macaroni is a lot of macaroni....😊
10 1/2 cups of vegetables/eggs for one pound of pasta ? And only one cup of mayonnaise????? Am I the only one who thinks there's a mistake in this recipe? NOWADAYS I am seeing SO much people's not capable of thinking by themselves??? WTF??? Anyways 😂
You know of all the Macaroni Recipe I see on RUclips, He is the first to put Little Lemmon Juice, I thought the same about adding Lemmon Juice to mine. HmmmHmmmm, You still a Rock star Justin. Nobody Past or present does It better. Miss you. 😊
My son was three years old when we discovered Justin Wilson and he could never get enough of this man and his jokes and conversation as he cooked. We were stationed in Germany at the time and only one station to watch. This year I sent him a Justin Wilson cookbook for his 38th birthday 🎈🎂 memories ❤
I have watched so very many of Justin's videos, I really do wish who ever has them and has the right to reshow them would do this on a regular basis, so many many people have learned so much from him and so many more people could. Rest in peace Justin, we miss you and love you.
Justin was a great cook. My dad had him in for a fundraiser and he did the show but also cooked for us and some friends. This was years and years ago. He was very nice and his cooking was absolutely delicious "I gar-on-tee!".
Oh my goodness! I love Justin. I haven't seen him in years. God bless him... I guarantee! 🙏🥰❤️. I just read some of the comments. So sorry to hear he has passed. Then he is with The Lord. Praise God. RIP Justin. 🙏❤️
Wow, does this make me so nostalgic. I'm 49 and remember watching Mr. Wilson with my parents every weekend. Oh, and all that gorgeous Magnalite cookware! My mom bought me a full set of it back when I moved into my first apartment. Almost 30 years later, I'm still using it daily.
I loved watching him when I was growing up. I had 1 of his cookbooks my uncle gave me. When I was in my 20s in the 80s, my sister moved to Covington, LA. We were grocery shopping one Friday afternoon and he was in the grocery store. It was so fun to see him. He was so gracious and kind. Not many people recognized him but I sure did! ❤❤❤
I use to watch him all the time! Anyone remember back many years ago when we only had a few channels? And on Saturday & Sunday nothing was on except for Justin Wilson & Bob Ross! Haha! That’s Back when TV was Good! Made me wanna learn to cook & paint! Two awesome men!
I was about 5 years old when I first saw Mr. Wilson on PBS channel 22 and 26 growing up! Thanks so much Mr. Wilson for lighting that culinary spark in me! Because of you, I am the person I am today!! Love and miss your shows!
Justin reminds me so much of my father. My father was from Louisiana . He was a Cajun Italian. Whenever he was in a silly mood he would say things like " don't dat putty" instead of " isn't that pretty" I used to think he was the only one who talked that way. Like he was making it up or something. Then I saw Justin on his t. v. cooking show. I couldn't believe how he sounded just like my dad. I miss my dad so much. He passed in 1998 Forever the best father in the world. 😢😊
My Mamaw and I made Mr. Wilson’s potato free potato salad when I was growing up. We went rogue, though, and used potatoes instead of crackers. Loved watching this man cook. 😊♥️
Watching Mr. J Wilson cook and hearing him speak makes me think of my father in law, Moose Thibodeaux. He was always showing me how to make my husband's favorite foods and telling me all the funny Boudreaux, Thibodeaux and Fontenot stories. The good ole Cajun accent and humor is being lost everyday. Thankfully we still have Justin Wilson cooking and archived for us to enjoy. Thank you for sharing him with us. ❤
Justin Wilson had the most entertaining cooking show of all time. The way he would put together his recipes. And throw in stories along the way was absolutely fantastic.
Never missed an episode of this brilliant man cooking! As a kid, it was my first ever obsession on PBS. No matter what was happening in my world, I Always made sure I watched this Fabulous Chef in action. ✨️ He is embedded in my childhood memories...🙂
I sure do miss watching Justin Wilson on tv. It didn't matter what he made everything sounded delicious. I wish they would bring this type of show back on tv.
Add some shrimp and some lump crab meat up in this macaroni salad and you will love it. let it sit in the refrigerator over night so the flavors can merge together. Great show as always.
My grandma liked him she even bought his cookbook. She first got enjoyed introduced to him from his comedy records her and grandpa enjoyed listening to him his wit was very entertaining
I watched his show every Saturday. I liked when he said drink the wine, you like don't worry about which kinds go with the food. Then he say I guarantee. Always made me smile.
I got a taste of Cajun food watching Justin. And when my mom started making some of his recipes we ate good. That salad was always a big hit at parties, bbq's or picknicks'. Dat be ssoo good.❤
I loved watching Justin Wilson as a newly married man back in the day. He was on PBS and I learned to make incredible jambalaya from him. It took me 3 hours to prep and cook it. My wife met him at a cookbook signing and bought me one with his signature.
My dad too! It seems appropriate that RUclips popped this video in my feed on Memorial Day. I haven’t thought about Justin Wilson in years, but I always think of my dad saying “I guarantee“ in the same way as this delightful Cajun chef.
@@jayes8191 My dad loved to cook. He came across Mr. Wilson's show and wanted to learn about Cajun cuisine. I love Justin' s accent and ways of putting things too. So sad they are both gone.
Justin Wilson is a national treasure: I learned from him the importance of cooking with wine you can (and should) drink, and the importance of precise measurements after drinking that wine.
My mom used to watch him when I was a child in the 80’s. His uh-huh’s, I guarantee’s, and his ounion I remember quite well from those days. Now, I don’t typically favor macaroni salad but I’ll tell you what, I’m making this one here! Looks so good! Thank you for bringing Justin Wilson back into my life. I’m going to begin looking up a lot more of his recipes. ❤❤❤
I used to love watching Justin Wilson on PBS station, long before the Food Network Station cooks. I remember I also watched Marcia Adams, who cooked Amish food, Martin Yan from Yan Can Cook and Chef Jacque Pepin. Must try his recipes, I guaaaruntee ( lol!) I will love them!
@@lilliankrajenka8713 I live in England now ( originally from Maryland), and there’s a tv chef over here called Rick Stein and he did a television series two years ago and travelled from San Francisco down and through Mexico. Anyway, he met up with Martin Yan, looked the same but aged a little bit. Still has the same sweet smile and said the same old corny jokes.
@ Donnaplumridge9769~Oh thank you, Donna! That's so good to hear! He was a sweet man, and funny! Thank you for the update ❣️😊 My daughter lives in London 🤗
I met him in my late 20's and he was signing his Cookbook back in the 1970's. He was a kind Southern Gentlemen, could be, my goodness!! Just as he was on his Show. Miss him more than ever, as he made cooking from scratch absolutely fun, to be in the Kitchen with him, following along 💖 ☄🕯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🇺🇸🌶🥒🥂🍽🍋
I have two sons and my one used to watch you all the time because he wanted to be a chef. Unfortunately, his first job when he was 14 was in a kitchen cleaning up dishes and he decided that he didn't want to be a chef anymore.haha He ended up going to college for IT. He does enjoy cooking and his food is very very tasty. ✌️❤️🙏
Think I saw him once decades ago, but I learned to cook artichokes because of him. As for the salad, I don't know why people don't just put a bunch of the noodle mix in the bowl with the dressing. It helps clean the dressing off the sides of the bowl when you dump it back into the main bowl.
Thank you so much for sharing Justin Wilson's show here on YT, it's hard to believe he's been gone for almost 22 years now. I'm going to turn 48 in July of this year so I remember watching his show on the local PBS channel when I was a kid and young adult. I siubed to your channel and hit that like button so I can find more of Justin Wilson's shows here.
Oh my stars!!!! Thank you for posting this! In the early 90's when I was first married, he was on PBS Saturdays at 6:30. I always watched, and he helped me to learn how to cook!
What a Treasure for Sure... Rest in Peace Justin the world will sure miss you and your talent as a cook. I just found you links and so grateful for all you video's.
My grandma and I would watch him on PBS. I really miss our bonding together over this show. I love her and I hope they are both chatting it up in the afterlife and making some good food for all of heaven to marvel at!
Want to elevate your pasta salad and potato salad to supertonic taste? For pasta , combine 1 T oil, 1 T sugar and 1T mild vinegar (unseasoned rice wine vinegar) and pour it over the hot pasta, stir. Do the same for hot potatoes (probably use a bit more but be careful, a little goes a long way. Then when pasta is cool, add the rest of your ingredients. You'll not believe the deeply delicious flavor that comes. Make sure it's hot when you add it.
Back in the 80s he had a program called Cookin Cajun on, I wanna say PBS.. no matter where it was my Mother was there with her notebook and pencil. She loved him and never missed his program once she learned to use a VCR recorder..😊 There was another program she never missed and it was hilarious as well called Cookin Cheap, I think it was out of Cincinnati but I really can't remember. Those were the days!!😂
I wish the TV cooking shows were like this again. He use to tell his funny stories that I enjoyed when I was a kid watching him. And I loved to watch him cook. Miss you Justin I guarantee.
Loved him... I GUARONTEEE IT!🤣🤣🤣💙

Mr Justin is the best! Miss when cooking shows we’re about cooking , sharing recipes and feeding family and friends and not stupid drama
What cooking shows have drama??
He is talking about Gordon Ramsey .. Take Ramsey over this old fart, anyday.
Yep, Food Network is doing their level best to ruin cooking shows. Luckily the BBC still has some great ones.
Most cooking shows have drama.Not this one.
I loved to watch him and his cooking 😊
He's like the Bob Ross of cooking. So relaxing to listen to!
I was thinking the same thing!
Very asmr
exactly!! So soothing and down to earth!!
That's the line I was waiting to hear.."my hands are clean, I just washed them...... yesterday", that stayed with me down through these years lol.
"I gare-ron-tee". "On-yon".
It's been so long since I've seen him but, when I saw the thumbnail of him, I knew immediately who it was.
I remembered the way he said "guarantee" the second he started talking.

I 1000% agree. I used to cater and my biggest rule in the kitchen was use a big bowl to give yourself room to really combine without spilling
Great idea. My Mother used her old enameled roasting pan in the same way.
Agree 100%! When I find a very, very large bowl, I grab it up, only because I too do not wish to have all of my ingredients barely move because the bowl it too small.
I like a bid bowl myself. Why fight it when you're stirring something up ? ;-)
Hey, good idea😊 I've had my roaster for many years and it's just taking up space in the oven, unused, but I won't get rid of it 😅
I learned so much from him. He is our Louisiana treasure.
One red bell pepper will give that salad more color.
That looks soooooooo good !!!!
RIP MR WILSON . you will always. be remembered
I guarantee!
That would be good !
...Yesss. I always add diced sweet Red Pepper. My Grandmother made Macaroni Salad with it, and she taught me how to cook.
Or grated carrot
Wow! What a find coming across this suddenly! Feeling nostalgic and loved watching his show.

My mom used to watch him when I was a child in the 80’s. His uh-huh’s, I guarantee’s, and his ounion I remember quite well from those days.
Now, I don’t typically favor macaroni salad but I’ll tell you what, I’m making this one here! Looks so good!
Thank you for bringing Justin Wilson back into my life. I’m going to begin looking up a lot more of his recipes. ❤❤❤
Learned to make the best red beans and rice from watching him...loved watching the PBS cooking shows on Saturdays...
Thank GOD there are video's of him cooking!! LOVE HIM. I used to watch him as a child and I cook like him now. Drives my hubby crazy !!
I used to love watching Justin Wilson on PBS station, long before the Food Network Station cooks. I remember I also watched Marcia Adams, who cooked Amish food, Martin Yan from Yan Can Cook and Chef Jacque Pepin. Must try his recipes, I guaaaruntee ( lol!) I will love them!
I used to watch all of those cooks too! I wonder what happened to "yan", really enjoyed him! 😊
@@lilliankrajenka8713 I live in England now ( originally from Maryland), and there’s a tv chef over here called Rick Stein and he did a television series two years ago and travelled from San Francisco down and through Mexico. Anyway, he met up with Martin Yan, looked the same but aged a little bit. Still has the same sweet smile and said the same old corny jokes.
@ Donnaplumridge9769~Oh thank you, Donna! That's so good to hear! He was a sweet man, and funny! Thank you for the update ❣️😊
My daughter lives in London 🤗

Enjoyed conversations with him twice. Very friendly and honest man. Honest as in , when he said something he meant it.
I use to love watching Justin and to hear him talk through every recipe 😊
I met him in my late 20's and he was signing his Cookbook back in the 1970's. He was a kind Southern Gentlemen, could be, my goodness!! Just as he was on his Show. Miss him more than ever, as he made cooking from scratch absolutely fun, to be in the Kitchen with him, following along 💖 ☄🕯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🇺🇸🌶🥒🥂🍽🍋
I remember watching this guy on TV when I was in Jr. High. What a treasure to see him once again!
I have two sons and my one used to watch you all the time because he wanted to be a chef. Unfortunately, his first job when he was 14 was in a kitchen cleaning up dishes and he decided that he didn't want to be a chef anymore.haha He ended up going to college for IT. He does enjoy cooking and his food is very very tasty. ✌️❤️🙏
Hello, how you doing today?
I sure do miss seeing him on TV. I watched him growing up and loved to see him cook.
I miss him. He was such a big part of my childhood. I loved watching him on TV growing up. Whereever he is, i hope he is cookin for Angels
Think I saw him once decades ago, but I learned to cook artichokes because of him.
As for the salad, I don't know why people don't just put a bunch of the noodle mix in the bowl with the dressing. It helps clean the dressing off the sides of the bowl when you dump it back into the main bowl.
Excellent tip!
Thank you so much for sharing Justin Wilson's show here on YT, it's hard to believe he's been gone for almost 22 years now. I'm going to turn 48 in July of this year so I remember watching his show on the local PBS channel when I was a kid and young adult. I siubed to your channel and hit that like button so I can find more of Justin Wilson's shows here.
My Mom and I watched him on PBS and thoroughly enjoyed his shows and sense of humour.
Oh my stars!!!! Thank you for posting this! In the early 90's when I was first married, he was on PBS Saturdays at 6:30. I always watched, and he helped me to learn how to cook!
Greatest man ever and a fantastic Cajun Cooker. Loved watching him, especially when he was outdoors.
Watched him on tv many years ago. He was a good cook and great sense of humor too!
A gentleman that wore both a belt and suspenders. ❤
What a Treasure for Sure... Rest in Peace Justin the world will sure miss you and your talent as a cook. I just found you links and so grateful for all you video's.
My grandma and I would watch him on PBS. I really miss our bonding together over this show. I love her and I hope they are both chatting it up in the afterlife and making some good food for all of heaven to marvel at!
Want to elevate your pasta salad and potato salad to supertonic taste? For pasta , combine 1 T oil, 1 T sugar and 1T mild vinegar (unseasoned rice wine vinegar) and pour it over the hot pasta, stir. Do the same for hot potatoes (probably use a bit more but be careful, a little goes a long way. Then when pasta is cool, add the rest of your ingredients. You'll not believe the deeply delicious flavor that comes. Make sure it's hot when you add it.
Thanks for the tip!
Back in the 80s he had a program called Cookin Cajun on, I wanna say PBS.. no matter where it was my Mother was there with her notebook and pencil. She loved him and never missed his program once she learned to use a VCR recorder..😊
There was another program she never missed and it was hilarious as well called Cookin Cheap, I think it was out of Cincinnati but I really can't remember. Those were the days!!😂
My man and I always watched Justin cook. He was the best 👌
