It was in 1968 that Bridget Lancaster was born in Cross Lanes, West Virginia. She was raised by her parents Jim and Linda Sapp alongside a sister in Cross Lanes where she got her education from Nitro High School from where she graduated in 1987. From there, she proceeded to Ohio State University.
The journey of Lancaster to the great chef she is today began since when she was just a child. At the time, she learned cooking from her mother whom she described as a great from-scratch cook. More so, she revealed that even her grandmother was also good with baking.
While growing up with her sister, the two girls loved baking and for Christmas celebrations, they decorated cookies which she described as some of her best moments as a child. With most of the culinary skills gotten from her mother, she worked in a few restaurants before kicking off her career in 1998 with Christopher Kimball’s magazine.
She first began as a test cook alongside two others and in no time, she found herself as a cast member of Cook’s Country which later began on PBS in 2008 with Christopher Kimball, Bridget Lancaster, Julia Collin-Davison, Erin McMurrer, Jack Bishop, and Adam Ried as its first cast members.
Even before Cook’s Country, she became a part of Kimball’s America’s Test Kitchen which began to air in 2001. Since then, she has remained as one of its presenters together with Julia Collin Davison and producers.
While her career on TV was moving great, she also took it to the radio (America’s Test Kitchen Radio) where she also enjoyed a great deal of followership. She has also been involved in the many cookbook projects that Cook’s Illustrated has done over the years.
She now serves as America’s Test Kitchen Online Cooking School’s lead instructor. Her role is to help come up with courses for the school.
