Maverick Cooking
MAVERICK COOKING Season 1 takes place in New Mexico and is based on the best selling cookbook, The Maverick Cookbook: Iconic Recipes & Tales from New Mexico, by Lynn Cline, published by Leaf Storm Press.
MAVERICK COOKING starts each episode with a docu-series style reenactment of an historic or current character and the food they most enjoyed.
From an ancient Pueblo grandmother grinding corn on her mitote to Billy The Kid grabbing a bowl of his favorite stew while on the run, we will meet Georgia O’Keefe and Dennis Hopper where they lived and where they cooked, all in the Land of Enchantment.
Then we visit a famous restaurant with a guest star who talks us through an iconic recipe being made by a renowned chef.
We end each episode digging in and enjoying the foods that stay with us through lifetimes, passed down and improved by every new cook.
