I watched this as a teenager. This series was one of the reasons I went to culinary school and became a chef.

Same here. Chef apprentice classes all day Wednesday. Watched this on Saturday morning public tv. This series is so special

[@mcmullen_photo]

So happy I found this! I used to watch this show after school. Good times. And I love the narrator's accent.

[@devonpeters8205]

I did the exact same thing!

[@007Environment]

Same here, this used to come up on one of the channels just after school. At least by now, I can watch these anytime I want, since they're on CZcams now.

[@007Environment]

Back in the days when I watch these after school, we didn't have CZcams yet. The last time I saw this on TV was like in 1998.

kappelmeister123, all 700 episodes of Great Chefs was narrated by Mary Lou Conroy who will turn 92 years old this year 2020.

[@TheMaggiemay77]

@kappelmeister123 Thank you! I love her voice and was specifically snooping around to find out who she is. My husband and I used to watch the shows in the 80's and had such a good time. Glad to find them!

[@PyroMynx]

Omg! This is where it all started! When I was a kid, my sister and I would watch these episodes while we waited for our mother to finish cooking our dinner. Now I know why I love watching people cook and watch cooking ASMR videos. I'm so glad I came by this!

[@RoyAndrews82]

Me too. Just made Liver Pate, and I eat it on Vegetable crackers, etc. Made it in a $25 food processor lmao !! I remember the music at the end and everything. Awesome !! Now everything is on CZcams nowadays, etc. Nothing beats the good ol days though. Awesome show.

[@OGSuki.]

Omg! The intro is such a vivid memory of my childhood.

[@RoyAndrews82]

Yup lol. Same.

[@hermanpesina6328]

Loved watching these back in the day. The cooking style such as plate presentation is like a time machine of how culinary recipes and plating evolves over time. Techniques never change but plating and presentation is like fashion

[@barbarasprague]

I use to enjoy watching this on PBS.
I always wished they would post the recipe or post in online. I was never able to find any links, then. Still, I miss this show and "Dessert Circus"!

[@rsimmons1980]

they are online

[@alinabina]

I used to watch this everyday after school ❤

[@SmallScreenNetwork]

Me too!

[@keshiawebster5227]

So happy to find this episode. I remember the desert because of the spun sugar.

[@asgharnowrouz3853]

I used to used to watch these on pbs and I bought the books, which I lost them during the move. I'm glad l found the shows.

[@justinlaboy6837]

wow i used to watch this with my grandmother when I was a kid. wish they would reboot this

[@jpallen719]

I love great chefs are used to watch it for inspiration when I was cooking, just tearing the narrator in the music takes me back…..

[@kennethmeyers2296]

I love the smile on her face, and hen she says. “Your friends will have a hard time guessing what’s in here...Hearts, Gizzards and livers!hah

[@Mochab001]

The Music was the best!

[@aaronsrok3422]

grew up watching this with my sister and she grew up to are a professional pastry chef :)

[@007Environment]

Cool to see these dishes. Although these dishes are very complicated to make, sometimes I would encounter consuming either the same or similar dishes if I attend the Bistro events that are hosted by the Beacon House Association of San Pedro.

[@yamenyaseen6725]

Also Great Chefs of America mom

[@kennethlatham3133]

Great dessert! Now make five of them.

[@admiralbaty]

The squab dish looks incredible. Hypothetically, could I do this with any small bird? Cornish hen?

[@SmallScreenNetwork]

Yes

[@Winston_Smith_84]

Watching this show in the 80’s inspired me to be a great chef. I wasted $40,000 attending the Culinary Institute of America and went on to have a lackluster, mostly depressing career spanning 18 years before burning out of the industry having never risen above the rank of second cook. Now I drive a truck.

[@RoyAndrews82]

wow... One of my older friends father drives truck, we were going to drive team, but never ended up doing it.

[@artgirl6784]

Someone told me this used to come on PBS. I remember watching this on discovery channel in the 90s back when cooking shows actually taught you how to cook not reality crap we see now.

[@VisualAFMedia]

Wasn't this on the travel Channel?

[@artgirl6784]

@@VisualAFMedia I don’t know if it was on a travel channel but I used to watch it on the discovery channel during the day back in early 90s

[@beepboop9464]

I didn't have cable so it was on pbs for me.

[@lsimon2342]

Any idea when this was filmed. I now one of the chefs and he looks considerably younger here!

[@SmallScreenNetwork]

Around 20 years ago.

[@peachlilac925]

Any chef professionals know what brand of cylindrical blender that is?

[@user-vi2uf7vc3j]

Squaaaab! Men

[@PaperPlanes5000]

Chef Anne Kearney is such a babe

[@thecoarsegrindpodcast1645]

Go breathe out your mouth elsewhere...

[@2012listo]

Did anyone else have a problem with old girl putting the livers back in the pan she took them from raw?

[@RoyAndrews82]

Just made liver pate in a $25 processor, lmao. Awesome show.

[@nthekitchen162]

Before there was foodnetwork

[@justindancer6613]

“ Great Chefs of America”? I didn’t see one American recipe…
