Shed a tear because growing in poor in the PJs, he was my window to a world outside. Hearing "I guarantee" just flooded me with nostalgia and reminds me why I became a chef.
What about “How you all are?” 😂 That was my favorite. I still use his steak marinade to this day, everyone loves it as do I. Thank you Justin Wilson! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼
I remember him well. Justin was not born Cajun though he was Catholic and grew up nearby in The Florida parishes which are not among the Cajun Parishes but are heavily influenced by both Cajun and Creole food Culture do to migration over time so he spent a lot of time around them. But Justin Wilson was also a segregationist whom many felt took advantage of and disrespected Cajun culture. His accent is a very strong deep south accent btw not Cajun, but is definitely a transitional French creole influenced Louisiana version of it. Cajun English today sounds quite Southern but is also very distinctive and is significantly French influenced but more like upper Midwest English is German and Norwegian influenced rather then as a Cajun French accent in English. It is not like the standard lower South accent however. In other words, Cajun English today is a uneque and indigenous type of regional Southerner accent and dialect. It is now widely spoken across most of southern and parts of central Louisiana even by many of those without French Ancestry.
Truthfully he was a segregationist, which I’m willing to overlook given the time and area he was raised in, and wasn’t even Cajun himself. He was welsh on his dad's side and his mom had a maiden name (Toadvin) which indicates ancestry from Guernsey but otherwise her genealogy couldn’t be traced properly. What is certain is that neither of his parents were French or Acadian. Justin adopted the Cajun personality and language as part of an act, which was very displeasing to some Cajun people who felt his act was a poor caricature and degrading to Cajun people. That said, he was a great cook and a good entertainer.
I was a kid and grew up watching him with my Aunt from New Orleans. We would just laugh. What great memories. I wish they were all back here now. How I miss them all.
He told a story, gave a quick french language lesson. Educated us on animals and gave us a recipe with jokes. He's like the Muhammad Alli of cooking shows.
Same here... Watched this guy 20+ years ago. actually; he's got a Cajun crab boil receipt I still make; a "Gypsy Chicken" receipt I've made 20+ years & it's one of my staple, weekly meals
He wasn't born Cajun at least not on his father's side though his mother may have been part Cajun. Justin was however a racial segregationist and many felt he also appropriated, degraded and disrespected Cajun culture. His accent was French Louisiana influenced transitional Deep Southernern but was also not a cajun accent btw.
Justin was however Catholic and from rural Southern Louisiana. But he wasn't from the Cajun Parishes but rather nearby in the Florida parishes from Roseland, in an area where many Cajuns have migrated over time and greatly influenced the culture. He also spent a great deal of time among the Cajuns. He was certainly part of and from the "Louisiana French" southern culture in the broad sense of the word, if not of French ancestry himself, though he may have had some.
@@jKLaCajuns are descendants of Roman Catholic French Canadians. The French probably think you degrade their culture nitwit. White people don't play that appropriation shit. Only browns that created virtually nothing but claim to have invented everything. The modern left is segregationist. They believe in white free spaces. So I guess once a Southern democrat always a democrat eh?
How ya'all are? •In this video, Justin Wilson makes two dishes. 1)Pot Roast Magnifique & 2)Potatoes au Gratin au Vin. •I've made 'Justin Wilson's Potatoes au Gratin au Vin' many times over the last several decades. The date on my recipe card is July 1980 !! It is deee-licious! And worth making! •In this video Justin forgot to tell us how much wine to use for the Potatoes dish... my recipe card says: 1 cup Sauterne. Add the wine after you've made all the layers. Then put the prepared dish into the preheated 375° F. oven to bake 1 hour. My notes: •Around 2010, I started using Chenin Blanc wine, instead of Sauterne, with outstanding taste results. •A few times I've used Parmesan cheese instead of the Romano. Very good flavor. I like the tang of the Romano, more.
A national treasure. These new fangled celebrity chefs need to take a look back at people like Justin Wilson, Jacques Pepin, Julia Child, and others. Watch and learn from the greats.
Watching this, you quickly realize that for 50 years there were mostly full grown adults on television, in contrast to the past 20 years when it's largely only people under 35 years of age who are on TV. For MY money, Justin Wilson was and still is, the most entertaining TV chef I've had the pleasure to watch.
I can't stand all these younger people who think they know things. I can't stand the way they talk and yell and butcher the English language, not to mention that what they all think is "new" is actually stuff my grandmother taught me. I love old people. They have so much good knowledge.
@Doom Posterior Boring, non-contributing, millennials and younger. I'm a Gen xer. We went up against the Boomers first. Remember that, you Boomer wannabe.
Oh, how my Late Father loved this show. My Father was cajun and from Louisiana so you can't imagine how happy he was when Justin would come on the TV. He loved his cookin', but most of all his stories and his sense of humor.
No matter if you are 25 or 52, you become mesmerized by this man and hi wonderful ability to entertain while doing what he loves!! He is an Icon...Thank you Justin!!!!
I love Justin Wilson... I miss him. I enjoyed watching his cooking shows back in the day. Listening and watching his show allows me to escape from all the tension and chaos in 2021.
I remember my mom and dad loved watching "Yus-tan" Wilson every Saturday. I also remember he devoted more time to his Cajun yarns than the essence of his recipes. However, it was clean, funny, family entertainment that will always be missed. RIP JW!!
I started coming for the family at age 13. I learned basic cooking from my mom, but I learned how to put flair in my dishes from Justin Wilson. Miss him!
This was a great man. He was instrumental in influencing several generations of chefs and home cooks. And he did so with a style that was all his own. His good-natured personality, mixed with his little Cajun one-liners were absolutely perfect for hooking in viewers. His legacy continues to live on, and he will always be remembered as one of the best to ever do it. I guarantee!
I thank God that he let such a wonderful, kind hearted, entertaining man into our lives for such a short time. He is sorely missed, but he lives on in our memories, and his recipes. I hold a glass of wine right now in remembrance to you Mr.Wilson. Although we here are not directly related but we are all his children none the less. Here's to a great man, wonderful cook, and a father to all who cherished him. Saluti.
This brings back my childhood. We lived in the middle of nowhere so we only had a few channels. I loved Justin and of course, Bob Ross. Here I was a little girl and watching these two as if they were doing a children's program. We had some greats back in the day, didn't we?
I started watching Mr Wilson early on. I was the only person in the family that watched him. After a couple weeks one other family member would start. And every week or two another. Wasn’t to long before a crowd was gathering for every show. Most never cooked anything ever but just loved him. I’ve cooked many of his recipes and they were definitely awesome.....I gare..own...teee! Miss him and glad I can see him on CZcams!
My late husband and I loved him! We even watched him in the hospital room 33 years ago right after I had my son! We loved when he kept pouring in the wine while he kept talking!
I agree with you, completely! The entire draw to Hell's Kitchen is the drama & watching Gordon Ramsey go into a foul mouthed tirade upon some poorly performing kitchen assistant! Justin, Julia, Jeff Smith (Frugal Gormet), Graham Kerr (Galloping Gourmet) employ kindness & support to make everyone a better cook! It helped me in many ways! One, I am never without an open bottle of wine in my kitchen while I am cooking!
Before he came along, I thought the holy trinity was something else. I learned it was really bell pepper, onion and celery...Now I'm going to make some shrimp etouffe!
My grandparents took me to see one of his shows in Atlanta when i was a kid. He fed everyone. Some of the best cajun food I've ever had. And great stories too
Pretty much what Martha Stewart does now.... if you watch her show, there is always a glass of wine at the edge of the shot and the level goes up and down through the show.... HAMMERED by the end. Lol. I miss Justin on tv... Julia too.
The first time I watched Justin Wilson I fell on the floor laughing. I thought it was a spoof. I soon learned he was genuine and a fantastic chef. A National treasure.
Gawd I loved Justin. My oldest son Kevin used to set in front of the TV and watch his show every weekend, and I learned some of my finest recipes from that show.
Justin inspired me to learn to cook... between his shows in the 70's and his cookbooks I regularly cook meals that impress. I always pay tribute to the man. His influence is in everything I cook!!
There was also a guy named Floyd. He traveled around Europe spending time in each country. The ones I really remember were "Floyd on France". One recipe involved cooking live eels and it was particularly disgusting.
I remember watching Bob Ross, Justin Wilson, & Mr Wizard when I was young RIP fine three gentlemen...you guys helped make what tv should be...not the trash, violence, drugs, & sex thats on now.
Right there with ya bud. most were reruns when I was coming up. Still remember so many of these shows, wish the kids now a days had this kind of television coming up.
Been watching Mr. Wilson since the 80's in LA on PBS. Learned so much as he demonstrated how to make really good authentic Cajun Food. Great food! He is an Icon in the great State of Louisiana! May he rest in peace.
My favorite chef evr in 53 ears of me cookin.!! My best years of cooking came after I visited Louisiana at age 16. I learned from a genuine french speaking Cajun lady. My friend's mother. She cooked to the finite detail as I do now.
My mom used to watch this show all the time when I was a kid when I got older the funny thing is I started to watch it I really enjoyed his honesty and his great stories and also to learn how to cook some Great meals this one is definitely missed of those that have passed over
I always enjoyed Justin Wilson for years when he was cooking on pbstv. Love to listen to him talk and watch him cook great food! Hes so funny and endearing❤️
It just gives me warm feelings in my heart listening to Justin speak and tell stories. He is so genuine and real it is ridiculous. At my grocer, they installed a TV above the meat counter and just play Justin Wilslm cooking videos now. Brings a smile to my face, my kids recognize him, and it's fun to tell other people who he is that just stop and stare at the screen. You were a good guy Justin. The original cooking CZcamsr.
I love Justin Wilson's cooking! My Daddy God Rest his soul in heaven, I watched him cook on the weekend's, we loved his show. So nice to see him now at my tender age of 66. Time sure flys. I miss my Daddy. Wish he was watching with me now. God rest Justin Wilson's soul in heaven.
Chef Justin had my mother and I in stiches constantly. Even today I still say things in his vernacular and crack people up. Met a Cajun gentleman in Biloxi and the dealer was bent over in tears laughing at us talk.
I remember being a little girl 8 years watching Justin Wilson with my grandmother. I loved his show and his stories. Cooking was always a passion of mine. It’s good to know how at 36 a lot of my inspiration came from him and my creole background.
Ask his real grandchildren.... what he was like..... For your information his Cajun accent was an act. However he was a fantastic cook.... and he liked to drink light beer from Miller, and lots of it.
Bayou Boy, Thank you for posting that. I was not sure if he died. It was SO good to see him pop up on the CZcams suggestions. I watched him a lot on channel 13 in NY.
@@johndifrancisco3642 Justin Wilson stood up for us Cajuns when not many did. He hated how the Cajun people were seen as a joke and traitors. And we owe him a thanks of gratitude.
I remember him. He even advertised for Ruffles Potato Chips back in the 80s.. A Cajun style potato chip. They were just the right sweetness with heat. I can still taste them....
Wow!!! This is awesome!!! Just scolling threw for swordfish recipes, and ran into a peice of my childhood. Loved this Man's energy and presentation as a kid! Salute to Mr. Justin.
And finally, all these decades later, I see where I learned the word "beautimous", which I use on the reg. I remember watching this show with my dad, even though he NEVER cooked! I loved listening to him talk. Cooks today would be freaking out how he's touching everything with his "raw meat hands". :)
Oh, and BTW....the mention of Mississippi educational tv....what a coincidence...that's where I would watch....PBS...in little Ole Gautier, Mississippi!☺☺☺☺☺☺
OMG! I just happened to run across this channel! I used to watch him as a young woman learning more about cooking. I loved his show and listening to his stories. RIP Justin Wilson!
I miss you my friend we had many good times talking at the Rio and Royale airline gates in Houston chewing licorice and talking about the good old days thanks for the memories and cook book's you are missed my friend
I spent 3 Thanksgivings with the wonderful Robichaux family of Thibodaux Louisiana and enjoyed watching Justin Wilson just because he always reminded me of those great people and their great friends. Thanks for posting these.
When I moved to this Country as a college student I spent my afternoons between classes watching PBS and I was mesmerized by Justin’s shows. It taught me of the depth of American culture and I was hooked with his cooking and how funny and entertaining he was.
well, im 60 now,i remember watching mr.wilson many a day's in my past, he was one of the best things that happened to television ever,i guaranteeee lol , miss you justin,ayeeeeeee
It's not actually a Cajun accent though, to be clear. Justin Wilson was not born Cajun but was Catholic and came from the nearby Florida parishes in an area greatly influenced by migration of Cajuns over time. However he spoke with a French Creole and Cajun influenced but mostly Deep South accent, very common to that part of Louisiana. The true Cajun English Accent is different, still Southern sounding but also very uneque and French influenced but now indigenous to the region so spoken by many not of Cajun ancestry as well.
Shed a tear because growing in poor in the PJs, he was my window to a world outside. Hearing "I guarantee" just flooded me with nostalgia and reminds me why I became a chef.
And bet your a wonderful cook because of him , 😊
What about “How you all are?” 😂 That was my favorite. I still use his steak marinade to this day, everyone loves it as do I. Thank you Justin Wilson! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼
That’s an awesome origin story
You were born a chef. He just helped. Mmmm good alligator

1980s PBS shows were priceless - all the shows were great. Great memories.
This man was an American treasure. With CZcams, it's like he's still here, cheering us up. making us smile and hungry.

@@martuuk8964 Absolutely! Great chef, but the accent was a complete fraud. My aunt knew the guy, his real voice didn’t sound anything like this.
I second that emotion
I was a kid and grew up watching him with my Aunt from New Orleans. We would just laugh. What great memories. I wish they were all back here now. How I miss them all.
@@martuuk8964Do you have any thoughts of your own on this?... Or do you just plagiarize everything your whole life?
When I was 10 in 1977, Justin Wilson could hold my attention the entire show with his cooking and stories. These show's are priceless history..
It had soul and represented the good aspects of American culture. Now everything is overproduced, soulless and creepy.
Haha, yeah creepy indeed!
Loved watching him with my dad. On saturdays
@@alexarcadia7289vvv vvvvv vvvvvvv vv
I loved watching him as a kid. Saw a post on him and had to look him up again
Do not care who you are Justin ...appealed to all races or class .. Loved to watch him on PBS channel 13. He is a true classic !!! love him!!!
This great man, Bob Ross, and Mister Rogers need to be recognized as public television Icons!
"it's a beautiful day in Baton Rouge.... oooh and let's cook a happy ground hog, right there..." "Oneeoyon!"
I think you need Julia Child also.
private number do not call
I totally agree those were some great times when we were growing up
+magnmadsen Julia Child was the real deal I have to say that I'm sorry I have to say that
He told a story, gave a quick french language lesson. Educated us on animals and gave us a recipe with jokes. He's like the Muhammad Alli of cooking shows.
cant believe I came across this. I haven't seen him since I was a child. I watched the whole video is awe.
I have been wanting to see this man for years and never thought about CZcams until 2 days ago and now I am HAPPY 😁💞
Me, too. lol

Right! Why is CZcams just now showing us this. I loved this show when I was younger
@@deziredawn7275 I've done a few of the receipts from this program.... Oh, not so 'healthy' but very frikkin' Good !
Always loved it when he said "what I'm gonna did". He was a class act and so entertaining.
Another one was that he wouldn't call it woicestershire sauce. He would call it "What-that-there-sauce". He was one of the greats.
@@jlduboise71 He's also call it by its brand name Lea and Perrin since he knew the family that owned the company.
He wasn't born Cajun at least not on his father's side though his mother may have been part Cajun.

+oldschooldogy316 GOD I thought I was the only one who loved those shows LOL
If Yan can cook, you can too!
Growing up as a Cajun, I find myself talking more and more like him as I get older. And cooking just as good, we miss you Justin.
I remember watching these when they aired with my mom and I'm nearly in tears. She loved this guy and Yan Can Cook.
Yeah I remember Martian Yan. He and Justin were my favorite
Wok with Yan?
@@goldenretriever6261 Yan Can Cook. Remember: If Yan can cook, so can you.

My favorite chef evr in 53 ears of me cookin.!! My best years of cooking came after I visited Louisiana at age 16. I learned from a genuine french speaking Cajun lady. My friend's mother. She cooked to the finite detail as I do now.
Something from my childhood long forgotten.
But happily remembered.
Wonderful memories from back when the Chrome was thick and America was wonderful
My mom used to watch this show all the time when I was a kid when I got older the funny thing is I started to watch it I really enjoyed his honesty and his great stories and also to learn how to cook some Great meals this one is definitely missed of those that have passed over
I always enjoyed Justin Wilson for years when he was cooking on pbstv. Love to listen to him talk and watch him cook great food! Hes so funny and endearing❤️
This dude is great. Watched him all the time as a kid. In hindsight I realize how much he influenced me to become a chef...
You can tell it's an old show just by the avocado green appliances. I love Justin Wilson!
It just gives me warm feelings in my heart listening to Justin speak and tell stories. He is so genuine and real it is ridiculous. At my grocer, they installed a TV above the meat counter and just play Justin Wilslm cooking videos now. Brings a smile to my face, my kids recognize him, and it's fun to tell other people who he is that just stop and stare at the screen. You were a good guy Justin. The original cooking CZcamsr.
I love Justin Wilson's cooking! My Daddy God Rest his soul in heaven, I watched him cook on the weekend's, we loved his show. So nice to see him now at my tender age of 66. Time sure flys. I miss my Daddy. Wish he was watching with me now. God rest Justin Wilson's soul in heaven.
My Grandmother LOVED his cooking show! She loved how he used to say "onion" as "on-yones".....LOL
Don't forget mannaise for mayonnaise.
How you doin', pumpkin😍😍?!
MrsTee Barber
Don’t have an ounce of Cajun blood but when I cook, it’s definitely “on-yones” not onions, lol
Same here! This is so nostalgic!!! My grandparents loved this guy.
My mom used to say onion that way and i didnt know where she got it from..lol
He shall remain timeless, I loved his shows!
Another National treasure. Love watching re-runs of this amazing cooking show!
Chef Justin had my mother and I in stiches constantly. Even today I still say things in his vernacular and crack people up. Met a Cajun gentleman in Biloxi and the dealer was bent over in tears laughing at us talk.
he was one of my favorites . i was so crushed when they stop airing his show
Omgee I use to love watching him when I was little!! I’m so glad I came across this video today. It took me back 30+yrs.
He will always be my favorite. I use to never miss his shows as a kid. Such a great guy
I just love this guy's accent. Old school Weezianna without an inch of pretence
He is NOT Cajun and it is all an act.
@@darbyzworld It's not an act. His mother is Cajun.
@@darbyzworld
Before he did a cooking show he was a comedian and a storyteller
Like you said this is oolllddd school LA accent. Kind of cool to hear again
@@darbyzworld that's true
I always loved his stories....and the way he cooked was wonderful. And the way the talked was priceless.....
I remember being a little girl 8 years watching Justin Wilson with my grandmother. I loved his show and his stories. Cooking was always a passion of mine. It’s good to know how at 36 a lot of my inspiration came from him and my creole background.
I loved watching him thru the 1990's on PBS on Saturdays. I always wanted to taste the meals that he cooked. Always looked so good.
I watched Justin every week till his show ended. What I wouldn't have given to have had him as a grandfather. Amazing food and stories all the time.
***** I miss watching him. I was a kid watching his show and wouldn't change it because of his accent. I'm with you on that.
Dorelaxen a
Ask his real grandchildren.... what he was like..... For your information his Cajun accent was an act. However he was a fantastic cook.... and he liked to drink light beer from Miller, and lots of it.
How y'all are?
*tejastiger61:* What do you mean, "his Cajun accent was an act"??!! How'd you find that out?!
love all his storys he tells R.I.P. We miss you Justin E. Wilson Born: April 14, 1914, Roseland, LA
Died: September 5, 2001, Baton Rouge, LA
Bayou Boy, Thank you for posting that. I was not sure if he died. It was SO good to see him pop up on the CZcams suggestions. I watched him a lot on channel 13 in NY.
Bayou Boy Just 6 days before 9/11.. He didn't have to witness that sad day.
@@johndifrancisco3642 Justin Wilson stood up for us Cajuns when not many did. He hated how the Cajun people were seen as a joke and traitors. And we owe him a thanks of gratitude.
My Account LOL for real
@My Account amen lol
Memories of my childhood! My great grandma watches him every weekend! Great cook and storyteller! Justin is sorely missed!
I remember getting up super early before school in the 90s just to catch PBS reruns of his show, he was pivotal in my hobby and profession.
My dad and I used to watch him every week! He was very entertaining.
I miss this guy. He was a huge part of our childhood weekends. Thanks
I miss Justin.
He was a real cook and his recipes were very good.
I have tried several of his dishes and enjoyed everyone of them.
I remember him. He even advertised for Ruffles Potato Chips back in the 80s.. A Cajun style potato chip. They were just the right sweetness with heat. I can still taste them....
I miss this show...he was excellent, need more shows like his now a days ...❤❤
Wow!!! This is awesome!!! Just scolling threw for swordfish recipes, and ran into a peice of my childhood. Loved this Man's energy and presentation as a kid! Salute to Mr. Justin.
Your cajan accent is so nice to hear once more. I love your stories also.
Man is a legend he's like the national grandpa show you how to cook and make you laugh at the same time
And finally, all these decades later, I see where I learned the word "beautimous", which I use on the reg. I remember watching this show with my dad, even though he NEVER cooked! I loved listening to him talk. Cooks today would be freaking out how he's touching everything with his "raw meat hands". :)
I sooooo remember watching Justin Wilson on PBS as a child....VERY entertaining!
Oh, and BTW....the mention of Mississippi educational tv....what a coincidence...that's where I would watch....PBS...in little Ole Gautier, Mississippi!☺☺☺☺☺☺
Haha, me too on channel 12 every saturday morning.
Me too, sadly as a kid it was just to enjoy the voice and not to realize the amazing food he was making
Making Lemonade jrwesdoip!@comgoihp!@combopasaisgopqwrgo@aswego😎🤗🤔asgodoipboi
Same here.
This man was a great cook back in his day and had the clearest understandable voice ever!!! I gare-un-tee-it!!!!
OMG! I just happened to run across this channel! I used to watch him as a young woman learning more about cooking. I loved his show and listening to his stories. RIP Justin Wilson!
I miss you my friend we had many good times talking at the Rio and Royale airline gates in Houston chewing licorice and talking about the good old days thanks for the memories and cook book's you are missed my friend
This great man was universally loved by everyone that got the privileged to enjoy his amazing presentations. A true National Treasure.
Nice to see you once more. I love seeing you cook.
I used to watch this with my grandparents in the mid 90's. I miss u grandma and grandpa, I guaaranteeee
I spent 3 Thanksgivings with the wonderful Robichaux family of Thibodaux Louisiana and enjoyed watching Justin Wilson just because he always reminded me of those great people and their great friends.
Thanks for posting these.
Always speaks past tense, lol
"Tell what I'm gonna did"
When I moved to this Country as a college student I spent my afternoons between classes watching PBS and I was mesmerized by Justin’s shows. It taught me of the depth of American culture and I was hooked with his cooking and how funny and entertaining he was.
well, im 60 now,i remember watching mr.wilson many a day's in my past, he was one of the best things that happened to television ever,i guaranteeee lol , miss you justin,ayeeeeeee
" I guarantee" Grew up watching Justin Wilson.. boy I'm getting old!
This guy cooked the stuff we all wanted to see cooked plus the comedy and Cajun accent was just gold.
It's not actually a Cajun accent though, to be clear. Justin Wilson was not born Cajun but was Catholic and came from the nearby Florida parishes in an area greatly influenced by migration of Cajuns over time. However he spoke with a French Creole and Cajun influenced but mostly Deep South accent, very common to that part of Louisiana. The true Cajun English Accent is different, still Southern sounding but also very uneque and French influenced but now indigenous to the region so spoken by many not of Cajun ancestry as well.
