FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – January 7, 2015 – Celebrity chef and author Chad Thilborger is pleased to announce the successful debut of his new television show “Dig In Y’All” and is currently developing the second season of the lifestyle program that’s all about enjoying food and creating memories with family and friends. The show airs Sundays at 11:00 am EST on the CW-affiliate WSFL-TV and on Channel 16-Eye on South Florida, reaching more than 1.6 million households. Full episodes are also available online at www.eyeonmedianetwork.com.

“My philosophy for entertaining at home is pretty simple - You get a whole heap of enjoyment out of life when you add spice, color and a tad more effort into everyday things - and a little bit of bourbon now and then doesn’t hurt,” said Thilborger. “We are thrilled that the show has attracted a following across South Florida while our online and social media presence has allowed us to engage with home cooking and entertainment enthusiasts nationwide.”

Each week, Thilborger shares his family recipes consisting mostly of Southern dishes with a twist. He’ll also show viewers how to combine cooking and entertaining as a way of bringing people together. Thilborger provides techniques, tips, recipes and loads of his hilarious family stories sure to make viewers think back to gatherings with friends and family.

“We plan to expand our menu tasty dishes next season making you want to Dig In Y’all,” said Thilborger. “But more than that, the show will give viewers inspirational home-style tips to help make your own memories in the kitchen, at the dinning room table, and beyond.”

Thilborger is a Southern Louisiana native with deep roots in the heart of Cajun Country who relocated to South Florida more than 10 years ago from New Orleans. At 6’4”, he has a booming voice and even bigger laugh, all the traits for someone often described as “larger than life.”

Dozens and dozens of Thilborger’s wonderful memories and recipes are included in the first cookbook, A Whole Heap of Goodness, which is available on his website. He travels the United States and Europe telling his story, cooking up some fun, and encouraging ordinary people to engage their authentic heart and cook something extra ordinary their family will love. Let go of inhibitions…be inspired…live and cook with passion!

In the past year Thilborger has been a featured motivational speaker as well as a cooking demonstrator. He has appeared at several Williams-Sonoma locations where he is also a White Coat, offering expert advice. Thilborger has been a guest on the Financial News Network where he gives demos and advice for busy families watching their budgets in the kitchen. He also made several visits as guest foodie on Rolonda Watt’s live radio show “Sundays with Rolonda.”
