Rick Bayless

Rick Bayless is one of America's most celebrated chefs, known as much for championing local farmers and purveyors as he is for transforming the way Americans understand Mexican cuisine. Long before authentic regional Mexican cooking gained widespread recognition in the U.S., Bayless was determined to bring the flavors and traditions he fell in love with in Mexico to American diners. That passion led him to open Frontera Grill, a restaurant that would forever change the way Americans thought about Mexican food.

On this episode of The Buildout, Rick sits down with Adam to discuss his lifelong love affair with Mexico, the challenges of introducing authentic Mexican cuisine to American diners, and how he built one of the country's most influential restaurant empires.
