Hidden Kitchens: Texas, a new hour of lively, sound-rich stories from The Kitchen Sisters, KUT Austin, and NPR. Hosts Willie Nelson and Dallas-born actress Robin Wright Penn, along with singer Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Los Lonely Boys, and some extraordinary tellers take us across Texas and share their own hidden kitchens. Stories of cowboy kitchens, ice houses, chili queens, the birth of the Frito, the birth of the frozen Margarita, the first barbeque pit on the moon, musician’s kitchens, cotton picker’s kitchens, the garage kitchens of the Vietnamese in Houston, deep fried fuel from biodiesel kitchens, and so much more. It’s radio that tastes real good.
