Weeks ago the kids came home from a friends with these chips from Trader Joe’s. They freshly opened them and found a chicken bone inside the bag. It’s been weeks of back and forth with TJs communicating and they tried to tell us it’s just a bunch of rolled up chips. 🤣- either way, we are just trying to help them by asking them to check any other bags from assembly. Now they want us to send it all back, which we are, but I wanted to document my little chicken bone friend one last time before we say goodbye.

Our kitchen is a potato cutting factory. I couldn’t find a press that cuts them the size I like so everyday from 3-4 we cut cases and soak. Blanch in the AM, fry in beef tallow to order. It takes work, but it’s worth it. No chemicals, no seed oils.

Per NY Times regarding LA County “The bulk of the roughly $1 billion collected from Los Angeles County taxpayers over the past four years to store more water has gone largely unspent.“ $1 billion taken, they dump water then we get placed on water restrictions.

Just pulled the short ribs from the oven. Now I’ll reduce the broth, puree some of the carrots in and make a ginger beef glaze. It’s on. Spoon tender.

I have built my culinary foundation on buying local, eating more ethically raised food, supporting US raised or caught products (whenever possible). Now suddenly it’s a political issue for 20 minutes because of tariffs and instead of people coming together over great food, morons shit on local food. It’s a funny world. Also, here’s an integrated system we worked on with HB high school.

Just finishing our final video of the year - an update to our Ultimate Prime Rib Guide. Our test kitchen looks like a prime rib factory. Don’t worry, these aren’t the final results; these are the “alternate methods” stand ins.

The argument that Spencer Pratt can’t be mayor because he’s a reality TV star is hilarious. Los Angeles has been run into the ground by people with impeccable resumes, elite endorsements, and decades of political experience. At some point, the “qualified” candidates need to answer for the results. Chatting Spencer Pratt on Gutfeld!

Thank the internet detectives who time stamped the laughing and clapping in the TMZ newsroom to the exact moment they announce Charlie Kirk’s official passing. These ghouls tried to double down on the lie and got caught. Disgusting.

This is excellent. These guys were trying to prank the man running. He gives him the mic and the guy basically takes over the show and convinces everyone to start running 😂 excellent Ethan.

California Voting Issues. At the DMV, when you register to vote, you do not need to prove any citizenship; you only need to check a box confirming, by "honor code," that you are legal to vote.

Newsom is putting out press releases saying the new gas tax that goes into effect tomorrow is just a few cents. He’s manipulating language. The tax is a few cents but the new benchmarks for the low carbon fuel standards (a tax) may increase prices up to $.65. Playing with words again.

NEW: The 2026 Prime Rib Guide is LIVE This isn’t “throw it in the oven and pray.” I break down every step and the science behind it: • Why pre-salting actually changes protein structure • How dry brining locks in moisture • Low-and-slow vs hot-and-fast • Exact temps for edge-to-edge doneness • Resting the rib • The final blast that builds crust without overcooking Prime rib is a system, not a recipe.

This is one of those dishes that is silly simple but fun to make with only a couple of ingredients. Lauren Gruel laughed at me, telling me this was her childhood struggle meal, but being from Jersey, we didn't have tortillas until the late 90's.

If you’re cooking prime rib this week, this step is non-negotiable: Pre-salt it today. Why it matters (and what it actually does to the meat) is in the video below. MUST WATCH.

Rushing to get this out, but my #1 Thanksgiving hack: keep extra stock simmering on the back-burner. Hit every dish with it as you cook. Flavor goes up, dryness goes down, even those "reheat" items.

Making your own tomato sauce should take no more than 15 minutes - it costs less than half of the jarred stuff, and it's healthier for you. I cover all of the tomato sauce basics here (with a full recipe posted below).

The most common pushback when I post recipes under $15 is always the same - people nit-pick local prices, say it takes too much time, or complain that it’s “not real food” and ask why poor people should be subjected to rice and secondary cuts. To me, that reaction proves there’s a massive knowledge gap around food in America. And it’s not the fault of consumers. People have been trained to disregard food altogether, conditioned by decades of food manufacturers merging with government priorities to create a cheap, turnkey eating program that values convenience over competence. With MAHA in effect, this phase is about breaking those norms and reintroducing food education at every level. Because being in the kitchen isn’t just about sustenance, it’s about sharing time. In many cases, the meal itself is secondary. We’ve forgotten that in a fast-paced world where TikTok reels have replaced real education. So take some time this weekend to learn a dish that’s always intimidated you. You’ll probably be shocked at how easy cooking actually is and how much you get back from it. Here's a quick stew video, use any tough cut and the result is the same. This video is a bit longer than my usual ones, but I break down the culinary fundamentals in great detail. I promise, if you want this, you will master a stew and braise and will never need to watch another video.
