The more I watch his shows the more I realize he would appreciate guns and watches.
He is all about the science - what happens to this protein when you break it down, how do you actually make corn tortillas, how long can you keep that chicken in the fridge?
For a guy like that, mechanical marvels like guns and watches are going to be right up there on the desire list!
Amazing that he tracked down his father's watch - it meant a lot to him and I'm glad he found it.
Also, I love me some Omega's!

Thanks for sharing. I had seen this a few weeks ago. Glad he's a gun nut too. Hodinkee's Talking Watches is a great YouTube channel. They get some very interesting watch geeks from all walks of life.
Alton is the Man! I love to cook, and have learned a lot from him. We also share a passion for watches. Great video and a cool story about his father's Omega.

Brown has always said that Good Eats is a show for cooks, and not a cooking show.
Also, Brown said that he chose to end the show when he saw the handwriting on the wall- the future of cable food channels is this preposterous "competition" nonsense. I can't stand that crap. Brown adapted to it, as you see, by agreeing to host some of these pointless, silly shows, but I'd like to see him bring back Good Eats.
