Cookin' at Carlos I is a live album by saxophonist/composer Benny Carter recorded in 1989 and released by the MusicMasters label.

[1][2] AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "During the late '80s up to the present, Benny Carter (now an octogenarian) has recorded a string of consistently excellent and frequently superb CDs for Music Masters.

This particular effort is a rare live recording for Carter with his regular group ...

The repertoire is typical of his club performances ... A special treat is Carter's trumpet solo on "Time for the Blues"; otherwise his wonderful alto dominates this fine set".
