For this episode of A Chef's Life season 5, titled "King Cornbread," viewers join Chef Vivian Howard as she dives into the world of cornbread.

As a Southern staple, cornbread is a beloved dish with many variations, but in this episode, Chef Vivian sets out to find the best recipe for the now-famous "King Cornbread" dish. This version of cornbread is special because it includes a hidden red onion layer and is served with honey butter, creating a sweet and savory combination.

To perfect this recipe, Chef Vivian visits two local chefs who are known for their cornbread: Mama Dip and Bill Smith. Mama Dip has been making cornbread for over 50 years and even sells her famous recipe in stores. Bill Smith is the executive chef at Crook's Corner, where he serves his own version of cornbread.

During her visits, Chef Vivian learns about the history of cornbread and how it has been used throughout Southern cuisine. She also experiments with different types of flour and cornmeal to create the perfect texture and taste for her "King Cornbread" dish.

As she prepares for a cornbread competition, Chef Vivian gets help from her husband, Ben, and mother, Scarlett. Together, they work to create the perfect presentation for their dish and hope to impress the judges.

Throughout the episode, viewers get a behind-the-scenes look at the competition and how Chef Vivian's team fares against other local chefs. They also get a glimpse into the world of Southern cooking and the importance of keeping tradition alive.

In the end, viewers will be left with a newfound appreciation for cornbread and the different variations that exist. They may even be inspired to try making their own version of "King Cornbread" at home.
