Justin Wilson, also known as the Cajun Cook, was considered a legend in the culinary world. He was born in Louisiana in 1914 and spent his childhood on a farm, where he learned to cook by watching his mother.
After serving in the Army during World War II, Wilson became a salesman and later a stand-up comedian before finding his passion for cooking.
He became famous for his cooking show, ‘Chef Justin Wilson's Louisiana Cookin”,' which aired on PBS for over a decade. Wilson's style was heavily influenced by his Cajun background, and he had a unique way of incorporating humor into his cooking demonstrations.
Wilson's cooking was famous for being hearty and delicious. He used simple ingredients such as rice, beans, and seafood, but his mastery of seasoning and flavors elevated even the most straightforward dishes. He passed away on September 5, 2001.
