Plot Synopsis

Known for their work on screen, the Smollett family gives fans a seat at the dinner table along with friends and family, as they break down the best BBQ dishes, Italian feasts, and family recipes. From putting on the perfect kids' birthday party to throwing a midnight BBQ for their friends, the family's culinary ace Jake is joined by brothers Jocqui, Jojo and Jussie, and sisters Jazz and Jurnee for a mouth-watering menu of food-centric celebrations. In the premiere episode, busy mom Jazz challenges her brothers to plan the menu for her daughter Nylah's second birthday party. Jazz has a party-planner vision, and she isn't looking for ordinary weekend fare -- her theme is "tea for two" and the vibe is pretty, classy and sophisticated. As Jazz takes off to run errands, Jake, Jocqui, Jojo and Jussie step up with their take on Mini Croque Monsieurs, kid-friendly Vegetable and Fruit Shapes with Yogurt Dip and their sister's famous Lemon Lavender Cupcakes. Little Nylah also stops by for a visit with her uncles, and Jussie gets some one-on-one time with his adorable niece. Then, with the tables set and decorations in place, the guests arrive for Nylah's birthday bash! Upcoming episodes feature brothers Jake and Jojo vs. sisters Jazz and Jurnee in a food truck challenge, Jake and Jussie's pop-up dinner at a Hollywood comedy club and visits from family matriarch Janet Smollett.
