HUMIDITY.
IT'S A SIGN OF FALL AND
THANKSGIVING IS QUICKLY
APPROACHING.
TREATS.
IT'S A TWIST ON THE TRADITIONAL
THANKSGIVING FEAST.
>> YEAH, THAT'S TRUE.
OUR CHEF IS HERE TO GIVE US
INSPIRATIONS FOR DISHES THAT
UNPROCESSED FOODS.
HI, BRUCE.
>> HOW YOU DOING?
>> THANK YOU.
>> AND BRINGING US THANKSGIVING.
>> YOU'RE WELCOME.
>> EVERYTHING SMELLS GREAT.
SO TELL US ABOUT YOUR PHILOSOPHY
THEN.
>> BASICALLY WE DO A LOT OF
PALEO DISHES.
THAT'S KIND OF THE CAVE MAN DIET
WHERE YOU HAVE PROTEIN, ANY KIND
OF PROTEIN, COULD BE FISH, MEAT,
CHICKEN, PORK, AND SERVED WITH
PROCESSED ANYTHING.
NO SUGAR, NO FLOUR.
WE SUBSTITUTE AGAVE.
DAIRY AND GLUTEN FREE.
GLUTEN FREE ON STEROIDS.
>> OKAY.
AND ALSO, JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE
FOLLOWING THE PALEO DIET DOESN'T
MEAN THAT WE HAVE TO THROW
THANKSGIVING OUT THE WINDOW
BECAUSE THIS ALL LOOKS VERY
TRADITIONAL.
>> THE TRADITIONAL TURKEY IS A
STAPLE FOR THANKSGIVING.
>> THAT'S OUR TURKEY STUFFED
WITH A PALEO STUFFING.
MASHED POTATOES.
WHEN YOU SUBSTITUTE CAULIFLOWER
CLARIFIED BUTTER.
WAIT.
SORRY TO INTERRUPT.
BUT FOR THE CAULIFLOWER MASHED
POTATOES, HOW DO YOU PREPARE
THOSE?
>> WE COOK THEM IN SEA SALT
WATER WITH SEA SALT AND THEN
TAKE IT OUT AND STEAM IS IT AND
THEN ADD HOT COCONUT MILK AND
CLARIFIED BUT THER AND WHIP IT
WITH A LITTLE BLENDER.
>> SO YOU WHIP IT THE SAME WAY?
>> JUST LIKE MASHED POTATOES.
>> I GOT TO GIVE THESE A WHIRL.
>> I'VE DONE CAULIFLOWER RICE
BEFORE AND IT'S A SIMILAR IDEA.
>> WE DO A LOT OF THAT AT
REBEL'S FLAG.
THERE?
>> THIS IS BASIL OIL.
I PUT IT IN THERE FOR A LITTLE
FLAVOR AND COLOR.
THESE ARE PUREED SWEET POTATOES.
BASICALLY DONE THE SAME WAY, BUT
I MADE A PALEO MARSHMALLOW TO GO
ON TOP.
>> THIS SOUTHERN GIRL, YOU
CAN'T -- YOU CAN'T HAVE SWEET
MARSHMALLOWS.
MARSHMALLOWS?
I TAKE EGG WHITE AND MADE A
MERINGUE AND USED AGAVE.
I SUBSTITUTED AGAVE FOR SUGAR.
IT'S SUBSTITUTION GAME.
I KIND OF STARTED SUBSTITUTING
THE DIFFERENT ITEMS IN THE PALEO
DIET AND IT'S A BIG HIT.
ACTUALLY REBEL'S BLACK IS ONE O
IN THE NATION.
>> YEAH.
THERE IS NOT VERY MANY OF US.
>> THIS IS FABULOUS.
>> THESE ARE BRUSSEL SPROUTS
RIGHT HERE.
THEY HAVE CARMELIZED ORANGE
JUICE, LEMON ZEST, ORANGE ZEST,
ALMONDS, GARLIC, SALT, PEPPER,
AND IT'S SAUTEED IN CARMELIZED
WITH THE ORANGE REDUCTION.
>> BRUSSEL SPROUTS ARE TOUGH TO
MAKE BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T GET
THEM TENDER ENOUGH --
>> A LOT OF THOSE ARE REBEL'S
FLAG.
>> SO YOU HAVE NO BACON?
>> IT ALSO HAS BACON.
BACON IS OKAY ON THE PALEO DIET.
ALSO WE HAVE FRESH VEGETABLES
ARE REAL BIG FOR PALEO DIET.
GREEN VEGETABLES.
I HAD SOME FRESH CARROTS.
SPROUTS.
>> MM.
>> THOSE ARE DELICIOUS.
>> ISN'T THIS LIKE A GREAT
>> DON'T FORGET TO TRY THE MEAT
HERE AND THE STUFFING AND THE
STUFFING WAS MADE -- NORMALLY IT
HAS LOTS OF BREAD, WHICH IS A
NO-NO IN THE PALEO DIET.
I SUBSTITUTED GRATED CAULIFLOWER
WITH WHICH HAS LOTS OF MEAT,
FRUITS AND NUTS IN IT.
>> THOSE SPROUTS HAVE A LITTLE
KICK TO IT.
>> I PUT A LITTLE HABANERO OIL
IN IT.
>> THE REBEL FLAG IS ONE OF THE
BEST PALEO PLACES AROUND.
>> IT'S ONE OF THE ONLY ONES.
>> SO IF SOMEONE HAS A VERY
SPECIFIC DIET THEN, WHAT SORT OF
OTHER MENU ITEMS CAN THEY EXPECT
>> OH, GOSH.
SELECTIONS.
WE DO A LOT OF FRESH FISH.
WE HAVE A LOT OF LOCAL
INGREDIENTS, WE HAVE SOMEBODY
THAT -- A BIG PORK CHOP THAT'S
PALEO.
FED.
WE CAN WORK AROUND ANYBODY'S
DIET.
WE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE COMING
HERE.
>> WE DO.
THAT'S HOW I GOT INTO THIS WAS
ACTUALLY FRIEND OF MINE DOES
CROSS FIT, LIKE FOUR YEARS AGO
HANDED ME A BOOK ON PALEO
OUT.
I CRACKED THE CODE AND I STARTED
DOING IT AND IT WAS A REAL BIG
>> OKAY.
I GOT TO ASK YOU 'CAUSE THE
TURKEY IS FANTASTIC.
WHAT'S THE TRICK?
FOR FOLKS AT HOME, GET THAT
NICE, MOIST TURKEY.
>> ACTUALLY I TAKE A WATER BATH,
LIKE WATER WITH ICE CUBES AND
PUT SEA SALT IN IT AND A LITTLE
AGAVE AND WHIP IT UP AND THEN
IT'S CALLED A BRINE.
AND I PUT GARLIC AND HERBS AND
PUT IT IN THERE FOR AN HOUR OR
>> WAIT A MINUTE.
THIS?
>> NO, NO.
WE DON'T USE FROZEN.
>> I WAS GOI TO SAY.
DIET.
>> SO YOU RECOMMEND IF PEOPLE
WANT TO MAKE A REALLY GREAT
TURKEY, THEY DON'T BUY A FROZEN
TURKEY.
WELL, IF YOU CAN.
OBVIOUSLY IF YOU CAN.
THE PALEO DIET, YOU WANT TO USE
ORGANIC IF YOU CAN, LOCAL IF YOU
CAN, AND FRESH AND NATURAL AND
THAT'S REALLY THE GUIDELINES.
>> WHAT IF SOMEONE WANTS TO
TOGETHER?
I'VE HAD SOME D TURKEY IN MY
TIME.
I'M SURE WE ALL HAVE.
IF SOMEONE WANTS TO SKIP THAT
PROCESS OF COOKING ENTIRELY, DO
RESTAURANT?
CLOSED.
>> A YOU?
>> I HAVE TO GO TO SOMEBODY'S
HOUSE AND COOK.
I'VE COMMITTED MYSELF.
>> CAN YOU PLACE AN ORDER AHEAD
OF TIME AND SAY FIX ME UP?
NO.
>> MAYBE FOR YOU.
>> IT'S OKAY.
WE'RE ALL VERY EXCITED.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> LET ME SHOW YOU THE DESSERTS.
>> WE HAVE PALEO PUMPKIN PIE.
CHEESECAKE.
SUBSTITUTE --
>> LET'S PULL THIS UP.
CAN YOU SEE THESE?
>> WE SUBSTITUTE ALMOND YOGURT
INSTEAD OF CREAM CHEESE AND HAVE
ALMOND CRUST.
AND THEN HERE I'VE GOT A
CHOCOLATE AVOCADO MOUSSE WHICH
IS ACTUALLY VEGAN.
>> I'M GOING TO TAKE A BITE.
>> THAT'S PALEO.
THERE IS NO SUGAR.
NO DAIRY.
>> OH, MY GOSH.
YOU KNOW, IT REMINDS ME OF MY
KID.
SHE HAD A NO BAKE CHEESECAKE
THAT TASTED SIMILAR TO THIS.
WITH THESE SUBSTITUTIONS, A LOT
OF GUESTS DON'T EVEN KNOW.
>> SO THIS HAS AVOCADO IN IT?
>> PUREED WITH A LITTLE BIT
TOP.
>> THIS IS THAT TRICKY WAY TO
GET KIDS TO EAT AVOCADO.
>> IT'S IN THE CHOCOLATE?
>> IT'S PUREED.
WITH AGAVE, COCOA POWDER.
>> I WOULD NEVER KNOW.
>> COCONUT MILK.
>> WOW.
THAT IS AWESOME.
>> REALLY GOOD.
>> VERY, VERY RICH.
