Chef Eddie Huang kicks off his new web series “Fresh Off the Boat.” His first stop in the San Francisco Bay Area is Oakland, CA where he hangs with a local biker gang to show hipsters how to shoot guns and hunt for rabbit. After a few gruesome hours in the Oakland outback, they head back to the club house to shoot the breeze and throw back a few cold ones. Eddie reflects on the disconnect between people/chefs and the process it takes to put meat on our plates, all before cooking up a delicious meal of southern style deep fried rabbit. Cooking seafood like a live lobster is one thing, but slaughtering an animal is a whole different process. This is one show you will not see on the Food Network or the Cooking Channel. Definitely eye opening.
