Get ready for your taste buds to be tantalized! King of Comedy Cedric the Entertainer and Emmy-Award nominated actor Anthony Anderson are taking a journey of discovery in the new A&E series, Kings of BBQ. They are on a mission to perfect their own barbecue recipes and sauces for their new brand, AC Barbeque.
The show premiered on Aug. 12 and we get to watch Anderson and Cedric - whose real name is Cedric Antonio Kyles - discuss what they need to create a successful BBQ brand. In a sneak peek of a new episode, the two funny men sit down for a tasting with Pilot R&D Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer Dan Felder.
Felder and his team put on quite a show with savory ribs and brisket. Anderson and Kyles tasted different variations of lemon pepper rubs, learning the balance between perfection and going too far. They gave the first rub their stamp of approval, but realized quickly that the second one was too sour.
“The lemon jumps out early,” Cedric said. When the food scientist asked “if it feels tangier”, the former Black-ish star responded, “Maybe a little too tangy.” The scientist then went on to educate viewers on the art of finding the perfect balance in a rub. “We always want to push it too far so we know we haven’t left any territory unexplored,” the scientist said.
Finally, the team set Anderson and Kyles up to taste one final rub, which blended the first two rubs. Another Pilot member referred to the rub as “the Goldilocks of Lemon Pepper”. Throughout the series, Anderson & Kyles will travel to some of the best barbecue places in the country, from festivals to backyard cookouts. They will also take advice from family members and friends.
