Wilson (April 24, 1914 - September 5, 2001) was a southern American chef and humorist known for his brand of Cajun cuisine-inspired cooking and humor. He was a self-styled "raconteur" and a staunch political conservative. Wilson was born in Roseland in Tangipahoa Parish, one of the "Florida Parishes" of Louisiana. He began his career as a safety engineer while he traveled throughout Acadiana. His safety lectures that he made to refinery workers prompted him on the road to becoming a Cajun storyteller. He remembered it this way on the back cover of The Justin Wilson Cook Book: "Way back when I first started as a safety engineer, I took myself pretty seriously, and I found I was putting my audiences to sleep. So having lived all my life among the Cajuns of Louisiana, and having a good memory for the patois and the type of humor Cajuns go for, I started interspersing my talks on safety with Cajun humor." Wilson later recorded several humor albums, beginning with "The Humorous World of Justin Wilson" on Ember Records. He also recorded several albums for Jewel Records on the Paula label. He later appeared as a guest on the popular CBS series The Ed Sullivan Show. He was known for the catchphrase, "I gar-on-tee!". He later wrote seven Cajun cookbooks and two books of Cajun stories, and hosted several cooking shows on PBS that combined Cajun cooking and Cajun humor. Wilson was politically active in his early years. His father, Democrat Harry D. Wilson, was the Louisiana agriculture commissioner in the first half of the twentieth century (his mother, Olivet Wilson, was Louisiana French). In 1951-1952, Justin Wilson was the manager of the unsuccessful Democratic gubernatorial campaign of Lieutenant Governor William J. "Bill" Dodd. He and Dodd were close though they often disagreed on political philosophy. Wilson's brother-in-law, Bolivar Kemp, was the Democratic attorney general of Louisiana from 1948 to 1952. Over the years, Wilson, a conservative and known for his emphasis of patriotic themes, became involved in numerous Louisiana political campaigns. Former state Senator Donald Wayne "Don" Williamson of Caddo Parish recalls Wilson having cut a commercial for his own Democratic challenge to incumbent Insurance Commissioner Sherman A. Bernard in 1979. Williamson said that Wilson just volunteered to help him. Williamson only narrowly lost to Bernard, who later went to prison for fraud in the handling of his job duties. In time, Wilson's ties to the Democrats soured, and he supported numerous Republican candidates. It is not known whether Wilson himself became a Republican. Tell me your favorite Justin Wilson Joke.

Justin Wilson, the Cajun humorist and chef whose distinctive accent delighted viewers of his “Cookin’ Cajun” and other TV shows, has died. He was 87. His daughter Sarah Sue Easterly said Wilson died Wednesday in Baton Rouge. Over Wilson’s career, he released five cookbooks and recorded 27 spoken-word albums of stories and an album of Christmas songs. He was host of several cooking programs, including “Louisiana Cookin’.” He was utterly unpretentious, and refused to let mistakes be edited out of his shows or to let canned laughter be added, said Carl Fry, who produced all of his Louisiana Public Broadcasting shows. “He would say, ‘I’ll tell a joke. If they like it, they like it,’ ” Fry said. He referred to himself as JOOS-tain and became known for the expression: “I ga-ron-tee!” (guarantee), from the Cajun “J’vous garantis.” “Cajun cooking is the ability to take what you have and create a good dish and season it right,” Wilson told The Associated Press in 1990. “It isn’t all that hard, but so few people know how to take what they have and put it together and season it properly,” he said. “It’s creative cooking--that’s all it is. “I am a gourmet, but I am more of a gourmand,” he explained. “A gourmet is somebody that’s an epicurean. But a gourmand is somebody that’s a P-I-G hog, and that’s what I am.” A native of Amite, La., Wilson had lived in Summit, Miss., for about six years, his daughter said. His last syndicated series of shows was titled “Easy Cooking.” Wilson called himself a “half-bleed” Cajun. His father was Louisiana’s commissioner of agriculture for 32 years, and his mother, Olivet, was Louisiana French. She taught him how to cook. “She was a great improviser,” Wilson said. “She’d cook a dish and we’d go, ‘Mama, w’at’s this here, hanh?’ And she’d say, ‘Children, that’s a mus-go. It mus’ go down yo’ t’roat.’ ” Besides Easterly, survivors include two other daughters, eight grandchildren, two stepgrandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
