This Docu-Series Just Hit the Top 10 on Netflix (& It Will Make You Seriously Hungry)

We have definitely had our fair share of cooking show obsessions. Whether it's Chopped or Top Chef, it's hard to stop watching once you click "play" on that first episode.

It appears that now we'll be adding another title to our must-watch list, because Netflix just released a four-part docu-series called, High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America. According to Netflix, this series follows food writer Stephen Satterfield, who “embarks on a vibrant and powerful culinary journey alongside chefs, historians, and activists that celebrates the courage, artistry, and resourcefulness of the African American people.”

High on the Hog was released to Netflix earlier this week and the show has already jumped into the top ten list on the streaming site. Watch the trailer below for a better taste of what this series has to offer.
