New Show Alert: Bobby Deen’s “Not My Mama’s Meals”
![]() |

Well, it’s happened. PR people have started reaching out, begging food writers and bloggers to cover Bobby Deen’s new Cooking Channel show, Not My Mama’s Meals. According to his publicist: “Each week on Not My Mama’s Meals, Bobby Deen will recreate some of his mother’s famous meals with healthy substitutions that cut down on calories and fat, but still deliver on taste.” The show premieres on January 4th.
Maybe not his mama’s meals, but his mama’s coattails, for sure.

Gotta say that from the double chin forming he must be eating his Mama’s Meals.
You took the words right out of my mouth!
I’m kinda excited about this.
Please tell me you’re joking
Not surprised. When is Jamie’s show going to debut?
I suspect it will be named “Not my Mama’s Heels?”
So, they *are* his Mama’s meals. The show should be called “Not My Mama’s Fat & Calories.”
The whole premise makes no sense, that dude and his three chins know nothing about healthy, making a 3000 calorie piece of butter pie isnt any better for you at 2000 calories.. I would love to see Ellie Krieger’s face as she watches the first episode lol..
I don’t see how this is possible. Taking all the butter, mayo and sour cream out of a Paula Deen recipe is like taking all the water out of the ocean or all the trees from the Amazon; even if you could do it, all that would be left is a damn shame.
Haha that was good, :P
too true.. if he takes the bad stuff out then it truly is not his momma’s cookin’
Coattails or not, it’ll be interesting to see if he does manage to deliver on flavor while making healthy substitutions. I’d rather eat lightened versions of Pauler’s fat-laden recipes than Hungry Girl’s over-processed plastic and cardboard ‘food.’
Agreed. Bobby’s obviously the more health-conscious of the two (he and Jamie), and he usually opts for fish and steamed/baked recipies when cooking with Paula on her show instead of the red meat or fried varieties. I am curious to know, however, how he’s going to make a low-cal Gooey Butter Cake. Maybe it’ll be a Gooey Margarine Cake instead?
*nods* I’m with you there. It’ll be neat to tune it to see if he actually uses real food in the recipes rather than dumping in spoonfuls of Splenda, Fiber One, enriched flours and various other chemicals. Mmm, healthy.
If he uses real food, he’s up on Paula’s cookbook. I got it as a gift from someone who didn’t watch the show either and thought it would be real Southern cooking – could’ve sworn it was really Sandra Lee from all the jars and cans she used.
He wouldn’t want to copy Hungry Girl, now would he?
Copy…on Food Network…never
A rose by any other name is still a Pauler Deen Production. Ol’ Pauler will taste test whatever her spawn concocts and slap him down for deleting the butter content.
There really is no escaping this woman.
He looks like Zippy the pinhead. Apologies to Zippy.
OMG he totally does look like Zippy. Where’s his bow?
Sounds like my old show calorie commando. Paula will bring lots of inspiration.
They let you post from prison, Juan? ;)
First Not My Mama’s Meals , Next will be Jamie with the show “Not My brothers keeper”, Then the creepy Michael Groover will have “The Captain Crunch Cooking Show” and finally we will see the ” Call Family services and get me out of here NOW” show starring the cute little Jack Deen before he becomes the next Jade DeLaurentis
LOL!
This is some weird inversion/amalgamation of the Oedipal and Electra complexes. Butter being the father.
He’s just milkin’ Mama for all he can.
And then churning it for butter.
Thank you for using the picture of Bobby from the Pauler Christmas show. I learned a couple things from this episode.
One, Paula Deen has no problem with her son Bobby being her pretend arms and giving her boobs a work over.
Two, he’s engaged or married to actress Katie Mixon, who’s syrupy southern voice makes Paula seem Dickensian.
Three, the final scene with the Deen family outside with the orphan boys choir was the most awkward thing I’ve seen in some time.
And this show sounds like a real car wreck much like the last Deen brothers show where they drove around and ate things.
He’s not married or engaged to Katie Mixon, she’s his “girlfriend”.
More like “beard.”
thank you! bout time for this Deen boy to come out…
And where was Jamie’s wife and son during the Christmas episode? Trouble in paradise???
This show’s a must-see for train wreck value. Healthier versions? I’d have an easier time swallowing that if he didn’t have two chins.
I cannot wait to see Bobby’s “healthy” version of Pauler’s Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding. If he can pull that off…then my Granny died a virgin.
Holy crap yes!
I thought I was the only person who remembered that abhoration of Donuts, Fruit Cocktail and Sweetened Condensed Milk. It’s like the Pink Elephant you hear about, but never ever see.
MAJOR LMFAO. I got 14 cavities just watching that abomination.
Remember she giggled about it “NO SUGAR ADDED!” to that disgusting crap. Excuse me? U just dumped about 8 sources of sugar thank you very much
If the world telling Paula that her food is not good or good for you doesn’t get her attention maybe the fact that her own son is mocking her will get her to Stop the insanity!
WTH?
Can that guy even cut an onion? I thought he was gay.
I fail to see the connection here… I know lots of gay guys who can cook. They can even cut onions!
There’s already been a show that’s proven that: What Will Brian Boitano Make? Not that he’s a master chef, but good enough to prove that he can cook decent.
uh yeah, totally!! Ted Allen for one, holy shit.
I actually like Bobby Deen and wish I could get the Cooking Channel to tune in. He made an appearance on The Chew to publicize his new show and I was very intrigued.
I saw that. He wasn’t nearly as obnoxious without his Momma next to him.
I was really hoping The Chew woukdn’t be used to pimp FN “celebrities” other than the 2 who are on the show, but it seems they do at least a couple times a week.
Half the butter, half the personality, twice the bullshit.
I do wish FN had more shows in general (maybe no this one) about healthy cooking. I can’t be the only person out there who wants tips on how to make comfort food without Deen-sized servings of butter. am I?
Awww Shit!!!!
How would you like to tell people thet you are Bobby Deen’s publicist?
I’d rather admit to being the jizz mopper at the adult truck stop….
Arcwoman
No, I have watched him on the show and he can’t even cook. To clarify on the gay comment, I thought I read he was engaged. I am a fag and I can cut an onion.
I want to know when MICHAEL GRUBER (whenever she says his name, I always picture it coming out of her mouth like that, in all caps, because she can’t seem to manage not to refer to him and not say both of his names) will be getting his own show. He could make…uh…and then he could…er…well, of course he’s really….um…but hell if they can give a show to Ree Drummond, why not to him?
I snorted. Thx for the laugh! :D
Yes, MICHAEL GRUBER just like Angela Chase and everyone else from “My So-Called Life” always said JORDAN CATALANO every single time the dude’s name was brought up, EVERY.SINGLE.GODDAMN.TIME
You mean he can come out of the closet long enough to do an entire 30 minute show?
Will it last as long as the show he and Jamie did? **heavy on the sarcasm here
Be prepared to see him walking around Savannah and his mom appearing quite a bit. I have seen some of the production on the studio set this is being shot at and it isn’t that bad.
is he going to show us how to pack fudge? this fuck is an attention whore.
That’s an awful lot of hostility directed at some guy who cooks on TV. Did he personally hurt you in some way? If not I don’t get the vitriol
Well, I for one am glad to see Jon Lovitz working again and I wish him all the best.
If you don’t like Bobby or his cooking, don’t watch his show. Some of us do like him and are not jealous of the fact that he makes his living doing something fun. Lighter versions of Southern foods sounds good to me!
His face is an uncanny replication of his mother’s original facial features.
Bobby, I wish you the best of luck!! My mother and I just adore you and Paula. God Bless!
Let’s forget about the ridiculous concept of the show and focus on the god awful name of it. “Not my momma’s meals??” Who is actually going to say things like “Boy, I can’t wait for the next episode of Not My Momma’s Meals?” or “Not My Momma’s Meals is a great show?” It sounds absurd. Sickening almost. It’s like little Bobby is desperately trying to pretend that he has some credibility to do a cooking show by himself. So all he’s going to do is make his momma’s dishes and leave out the butter? Like we have to be shown how to do that? At least somebody in charge at “spinning out of control FN” realized that this boring show will be right at home on the Cooking Channel.
I’m with you! That show is very annoying!
Thanks for describing the show. I wasn’t sure what the purpose was. If Paula’s son believes her food is harmful as in unhealthy enough to revamp it; then it would be a major conflict of interests. He is biting the hand that feeds him.
Anyone else pissed they took Vic Vegas’s show concept ‘mommas boy’ (from Next food network star? and bastardized it by slapping bobby deen in there? Seems like a shitty way to treat people who pilot show concepts for you.
I think there are a LOT of jealous people out there! Maybe you should actually watch the show before you judge it? I thought the first episode was pretty good.
I finally got a chance to watch the show this morning. After 10 min, I switched channel right away. This show is obnoxious! Bobby need to grow up! He was using his mom’s recipe and just simply replace the whole milk to skim, etc. It’s really annoying! And, during the show, he repeated, “it’s not like my mom’s recipe” at least ten times. it’s so obnoxious! Never watch it again.
Maybe it’s “Not My Mama’s Meals,” but it IS certainly the beginnings of his Mama’s chin! Boy HOWDY did he get fat in the face!!!
Bobby needs to do his own thing. He seems to be more health-conscious and he has a calm, likeable screen presence.
Didn’t an author do something similar to what her son’s attempting? I think I bought the issue of Woman’s day it was on. I couldn’t resist. The Title on the front cover said Paula Deen made me lean. I raised my eyes and busted a gut due to the fact it was Paula Freaking deen the queen of the fat.

Man Pig Bear Junior. Looks and sounds like him. Just as sincere.
I’m truly amazed at the amount of hate that people are spewing forth about a cooking show! As a southern girl myself, it’s sometimes hard to reconcile the food you grew up on and love with the fact that you know you can’t continue to eat like that. More power to Bobby if he can make some of those dishes a little less artery clogging.
It may be “Not My Mama’s Meals” but it should be called “I Can’t Make it On My Own so My Momma is Gonna Be on Every Episode”. They need to stop trying to make food show stars outta him and his brother… a pair of no talent hacks for sure.
I wish hed just do his show and keep his damn mommy off HIS SHOW. Its very uncomfortable to watch the interaction he and paula have. VERY!!
I wondered what people actually thought of these characters.
I can watch any Deen show. They seem self entitled and it makes me feel bad to watch them.
How hard can it be to come up with a heathy cooking show with normal food that normal people would make and eat.
Leave Bobby alone. Who cares if he’s gay or not. He’s just a pudgy guy whose hair is falling out faster than a barefoot runner on Georgia asphalt y’all, (which he desperately tries to cover up with teasing and lots of hairspray) riding his mother’s coat tails. He has good presence, isn’t completely unlikable – so why doesn’t he just do his own thing and step out of Mama’s shadow?
I just want to know where he hired the black guy that appears in his “dinner with friends” commercial.
I think Bobby has done a 180 in his life, and that is fine. But his ego has done a 360. It is almost like spitting on the money Paula made with her southern dishes. I am from Louisiana and have taken over the cooking for our family at holiday time; and you can bet my mom gets her feelings hurt when i change any ingredient. But he has made a whole of reminding Paula that her’s may be the wrong way. Jamie on the other hand did not. I just think Bobby wants to be the biggest Deen star.
