EMG Productions, in association with Webster & Associates Public Relations of Nashville, are currently booking artists to appear in the Lewis and Clark Expedition Recipe Series.

(PRWEB) February 28, 2005 -- Guest artists will assist Johnny Nix in the outdoor preparation of authentic recipes from the famous expedition that will be cooked entirely over the open fire. In keeping with the outdoor spirit and historical nature of the series, filming will be conducted at the picturesque Hank Williams Estate, home of Jett Williams and Keith Adkinson in rural Tennessee. The hospitality of Jett and Keith will flavor the recipes better than any other ingredient well use", says host Johnny Nix.
