Plot Synopsis

This reality series follows a family-run restaurant in Omaha, Nebraska, where three generations work together, debate new recipes, and test new employees. More than 30 years ago, owner Patricia 'Big Mama' Barron started a part-time catering business out of her home, which she has grown into an operation that includes a restaurant, catering services and banquet facility. At her primary location, Big Mama's Kitchen, she works with: her daughter, Gladys, who manages the restaurant; and her grandchildren, Terry and Diondra. Big Mama's Kitchen previously appeared on an episode of DINER, DRIVE-INS AND DIVES as well as LUDO BITES AMERICA.
